Test Xbionic Energy accumulator ®Evo Pants 2015

In the rest of my tests, after the first layer at the top in X-BIONIC, here is the bottom layer: the "tights".

Like the top, well, it starts strong in terms of price (more than 110 balls). Having been very convinced by the ups, I thought that the bottom should be as good and therefore, put in the register.

Let's test it. It fits easily, but you have to be progressive in order not to stretch it. It's warm, but proportionally less than the top. The compression zones match my morphology well, so nothing to say. It's really a plus to put it under softshell pants. Personally, under my Burton Cyclick, it's perfect. This compensates for the fact that the Burton is not very hot (it solves nothing for its pockets but good). When it humidifies, these tights dry very quickly, like the T-shirt and as in the sales argument ("turn your sweat into energy"), it works. Like the rest of the range, their technology with silver microwires keeps him from renown too fast. Effective!

The worst now. I Don't feel the benefits of the compression zones in terms of fatigue at the end of the day, which had bluffed me with the T-shirt. A little disappointed. Another negative point is that he's up to the calf level. Put correctly in the morning, if one moves hard (or even medium), one should not be surprised to find it below the knee. Maybe it's because of my morphology, but I doubt it. Material magazines had also mentioned this negative point. My wife has the same problem with hers, but much less than I do.

Another "negative" point came from my daughter who ran into me one morning: "Hi Peter Pan..." Yeah, okay! We're not going to dwell on that.

In short, warm, comfortable, but no real benefit from the compression zones and goes up on the calves. 120 balls is a little too much for what he brings me. In short, a slightly unfavourable value for money. Attention, as always with X-BIONIC, it is better to try the sizes according to its morphology at the shop.
