Running my first run with them felt comfortable but for longer distances they started itching in my lower back like crazy maybe i have to wear them more before the itching stops

Its just fabric that goes over your skin nothing more nothing less

Lifting weights these are nice for lifting weights the material is stretchy but dont believe any of the bs hype you hear about compression somehow scientifically giving you an advantage with your lifts

The fabric stretches nicely along your butt and calfs
