FAQs
Q: What is the difference between the Kookaburra LITE compression and standard compression garments?
A: The Kookaburra LITE compression technology offers a milder compression grade (approximately 15-18 mmHg) compared to standard compression garments (20-30 mmHg). This provides muscle support and circulation benefits while maintaining flexibility and comfort for extended cricket sessions. The LITE version is ideal for players who find traditional compression too restrictive.
Q: Can this compression inner be worn under cricket whites during match play?
A: Yes, the Kookaburra Compression LITE Long Sleeve Inner is specifically designed in white to be worn under cricket whites without visibility. The lightweight construction and seamless design ensure it remains discreet during match play while providing compression benefits without adding bulk under playing attire.
Q: How should I size this compression garment for optimal benefits?
A: For the Kookaburra Compression LITE, select your normal size for moderate compression benefits. Unlike high-compression garments that require sizing down, the LITE technology is designed to provide optimal benefits at your true size. Measure your chest circumference and refer to the size chart: S (34-36"), M (38-40"), L (42-44"), XL (46-48"). The garment should feel snug but not restrictive.
Q: What are the performance advantages of wearing this compression inner during cricket?
A: The Kookaburra Compression LITE offers several cricket-specific benefits: improved thermal regulation during variable weather conditions, reduced muscle fatigue during extended fielding or batting sessions, enhanced moisture management for comfort in hot conditions, and subtle proprioceptive feedback that can improve bowling and batting technique. The long sleeve design also provides additional protection against sun exposure during outdoor sessions.
