Why do superheroes need a costume shirt?
Superheroes wear costumes for a variety of reasons:
Practicality: some costumes incorporate utility belts, armor, etc but what’s less intuitive is why they have to dress so colorful and distinct. This helps people identify the hero so they know who the “good guy” is (stop crimes in a ski mask and you may as well just be another crook). Even the much-maligned capes can serve a purpose whether they act as some sort of shield, a makeshift glider, or help confuse the enemy while you’re moving around. Catsuits and tights would be great for someone who has to be agile or stealthy.
Symbolism: some superheroes strive to stand for an idea or cause rather than just fight crime directly. Superman’s bright colors make him easy to spot flying around: he’s a beacon of hope. Batman dresses like a monster to scare criminals and make people think he’s not even human. Other superheroes may want to pay homage to their inspirations or counterparts or reference their mythology or code name. Green Arrow evokes Robin Hood with his green colors and quiver. Black Widow is…a woman in a black catsuit, basically.
Disguise: At a bare minimum good superhero costumes conceal the all-important secret identity.
Cultural Identity and Comfort: Sometimes superhero “costumes” aren’t actually that. In the cases of people like Thor or Wonder Woman, their costumes are just what they wear in the places they come from. Man of Steel also portrayed Superman’s “costume” in this manner, as the kind of thing people from Krypton just wear.
Reputation Management: It’s important to be identifiable to witnesses and police so as not to be wrongly accused of going too far on a criminal that you didn’t actually handle. Think of it as the crime-fighting equivalent of a calling card. This is doubly important in worlds where there are many superheroes with different brands of justice.
Compression Shirt Benefits
In a healthy athlete, compression gear serves a different role. Most who choose to wear compression garments anticipate that they will experience improved circulation and mechanics. It is thought that compression garments may reduce muscle oscillations which will theoretically optimize the contraction direction of muscle fibers, resulting in improved mechanical efficiency and running kinematics.
The use of compression gear may also reduce vibration in skeletal muscle during training and competition. It is hypothesized that the reduced vibration would contribute to less muscle trauma, and as a result, less fatigue and biomechanical alterations during the course of an endurance event. Following the event, the combined benefit of these outcomes would be reduced by exercise-induced muscle damage.
As a result, athletes are expected to experience less soreness, edema, and a faster recovery in the days after exercise.
Other purported benefits of compression sportswear are:
- It keeps the muscles warm to prevent muscle strain.
- It wicks sweat away from the body to prevent chafing and rashes.
- Helping relieve pain from muscle stiffness and soreness.
- Reducing the time taken for muscles to repair themselves.
- When the right amount of compression is used (will vary depending on body area, typically in the range of 10 to 25 mmHg), improving venous return and oxygenation to working muscles.
You might be wondering what compression pants are used for, and if they really work. Compression gear is becoming much more popular among athletes of all levels, and you might be surprised to find out that you can reap serious benefits by wearing compression pants during your workouts.
WHAT ARE COMPRESSION PANTS?
Similar to spandex pants, compression pants are made up of a stretchy material that forms to your body and produces compression (pressure) in your butt and thighs. Numerous studies have examined the effects of compression pants on athletic performance and injury prevention, and many found benefits of such compression garments for athletes.
1. REDUCED MUSCLE FATIGUE
Purchasing compression pants, and wearing them during workouts, helps improve athletic performance by reducing fatigue. wearing compression pants helps reduce muscle soreness and fatigue during and after workouts, resulting in better, faster and longer runs without feeling quite as tired when you wear compression garments. This is an excellent reason to try a pair!
2. STRAIN PREVENTION
Believe it or not, compression pants also help reduce your risk for strains. Additionally, Healthline says compression garments even aids in strain recovery. So if you’re prone to this type of sports-related injury, compression pants may be right up your alley.
3. A LOWER RISK OF MUSCLE SORENESS
Sore muscles after training sessions can be brutal, so if you could prevent this nuisance from happening, would you? Compression pants are a good option to reduce your risk for delayed onset muscle soreness. According to Men’s Health Magazine, compression gear worn during heavy exercise reduces this type of soreness. So give it a try — run, bike, train, or play sports with compression pants and see if you notice a difference.
4. IMPROVED PERCEIVED EXERTION
When you’re training for extreme sports or endurance races, it’s beneficial to have lower perceived exertion (a more effortless workout). Doing so can make training sessions more bearable, and can improve athletic performance. A 2016 study published in Sports Medicine found that compression garments like tights, pants and socks improved perceived exertion in endurance runners.
5. INCREASED POWER & BETTER JUMPING ABILITY
Want more power during and after workouts, and better jumping ability? Compression tights may help improve jumping performance in athletes after endurance events. According to Runner’s World, compression gear makes it easier to regain maximum jumping ability post-workout, which is a bonus when you’re looking to get back on the track, field, or court after an intense workout.
6. BETTER MUSCLE OXYGENATION
Your muscles need oxygen to function properly during workouts. Compression garments are designed to increase the amount of oxygen that they receive, according to a publication by Research Gate. Compression is designed to promote blood flow and improve the oxygenation of muscle tissue, which can enhance athletic performance during short bouts of exercise.
7. COMFORT
While compression pants do apply pressure to your butt and thigh area, many athletes find such garments quite comfortable with little wind resistance. Compression pants cause less chafing and friction than more traditional athletic pants, plus they won’t ride up when you’re running, squatting, doing sit-ups, or stretching, among other activities.
8. IMPROVED STRENGTH RECOVERY
Even when you’re lifting weights (or participating in other forms of strength-training workouts), compression pants provide you with performance and muscle recovery benefits. A 2014 study published in Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise found that compression garments promote muscle strength recovery after bouts of resistance training.
9. BETTER RECOVERY AFTER STRENUOUS EXERCISE
Recovering from strenuous exercise can be a lengthy process and muscle soreness is more likely to occur when you’re new to intense training sessions. Luckily, compression pants can aid in muscle recovery after strenuous workouts. Pressure (compression) garments may have greater advantages to improve recovery following an exercise bout, says Human Kinetics.
10. GROIN SUPPORT
Need a little extra groin support, or need a sturdy place to hold a cup? Compression pants with cup pockets are for just this purpose. They provide a convenient, comfortable way to protect sensitive body parts while you train or compete. pants with cup pockets are perfect for baseball and football players who need extra protection but don’t want to sacrifice comfort.

nice!
If you’re buying this shirt to work out in, then I highly recommend it. The material is incredibly comfortable. Lightweight, breathable, a little stretchy, silky smooth. This is a great shirt for that purpose.
If you’re buying it for cosplay, then don’t spend your money. You’re paying for the material, not the print. The print is a little bit cheap and the arm in particular is nothing like the picture. A lot more white than grey. A general pixelated quality to the whole thing. It looks better in the picture because it’s smaller but, up close, the printing details aren’t fantastic.
I ordered the smallest size and still found the sleeves too long.
I debated sending it back since my primary reason for getting it was for a costume, but the truth is, the material is excellent and I know I’ll get a lot of good use from this shirt. Very, very high-quality material, very comfortable, will last a while.
Bought this for my 15 year old for comic con and he loves it. Bought it 2 sizes bigger like other suggestions and it fits perfectly.
Excellent for party, tight fit but would order size up.
I got a large and I’m 5′ 8″ @ 165 and it fits great quick delivery.
This is a great shirt that my adult son loves. It does run a bot small so got him a larger size. He wears an adult small/medium and I bought a large. It fits well, and is a little loose.
Fits perfectly, detail is excellent and came quickly!
Good quality and it looks great – love it!
Perfect shirt to hunt down infinity stones and work out!
It looks good on me, just as I expected! I hope to buy more from you in the future! Thanks for now
Nice thick t-shirt material.
This was for a Halloween costume and it is much better than the cheap store costumes. He loved it. It fit great.
As listed. Use the chart!
Be careful when washing and drying…it will shrink some. Otherwise, great shirt.
This shirt has already gone through 4 washings and it looks as great as it did when it arrived. Great quality print on a soft but sturdy shirt! Well worth the $$$!
Great Product!
It’s an awesome shirt! Love the design, fit perfect!
Great shirt, soft, breathable. Gonna be buying more.
I bought this for my husband oh, so he could have a matching shirt for our child. They wear them together and look great!
Great
Love the fit and feel
Awesome fit and comfortable
I accidentally ordered the wrong size, completely my own fault, however it was to true to size for my son!!! Fits well, washes and doesn’t retain the funk we all know too well.
Got fit, good material to be able to wear it outside in the summer time.
perfect
Cool shirt and love the stickers
I wasn’t sure when I bought these but I ended up loving them! They’re comfy and very flattering! They’re a bit on the thicker side but they’re stretchy and are not see through. They also don’t make you hot! They dry quickly and clean easily.
I was surprised that it fit really well (considering I’m a girl and usually things are super baggy on me) but it wasn’t, it fit better than expected. The smallest size worked perfectly and it’s really good quality too. Would highly recommend and I’m definitely going to be buying other shirts from them as well 🙂
Fits great and feels cool!
Especially for the cost of this, this is a great compression shirt. I train in BJJ and always love coming to practice with this on. Very comfortable.The only negative I could say is the imaging is a little fuzzy. But let’s be realistic for the cost you are paying it’s a solid look.
Be happy in this great shirt and pant!
Good for costume
Can I Give 6 STARS!?!!
very satisified
