Elite Compression Shirt

[Hammers44 4]

I haven't been able to find anything on the here or any other sites about these Elite hockey compression shirts. I couldn't even find a company website for them. Anyone have any experience with these? Do they run big? Are they worth the $60 that I keep seeing them for?

Not familiar with this brand of hockey shirt but I do use and love Skins compression wear.

Do the Skins really make that much of a difference? I'd love to hear a few MS user reviews.

They are a new additon to the Elite Hockey family and have been selectively put in certain retailers. I think it was a few of the big US retailers that got opened to start with test programs.

They spent time developing the line and came up with a very solid product with a point of difference (not just a me2 product like most hockey brand offerings). They use bamboo for natural wicking and have used a special weaving process for the fibers. They should gain traction in the next 3-6 months based on product quality. But traction will depend on the store and with which brands they are currently spending their money with. Stores in deep with UA and/or Bauer may have a hard time giving them shelf space based brand awareness. Haven't tested but I can safely say that I'd strongly recommend the shirt based on quality and tech features.

I've used both the Compression Elite Hockey shirt with the forearm and chest grip and the loose fit long sleeves. Also the t-shirt they offer.

I would highly recommend these products, they keep me cool and dry and fit excellently. The compression grip long sleeve is a little difficult to take off after a skate just because of how snug it fits. The arm grips though are great because they do a fantastic job of preventing elbow-pad slippage. They are pretty expensive though.

3 months ago I bought Elite compression shorts and long sleeve top. Love the product. My compression underwear usually start to smell after several usages. It's not the case with Elite. Bamboo seems to be doing what advertised and its anti-odor properties do not wash away. I also was pleased with overall quality of Elite products.
