Hi.No. This pad is not removable. This is Cycling Short. But, eventually I using for running also. A help for blood circulation is medical question, and I do not feel comfortable to answer, but he totally fits the body and helps a lot in cycling.Hope this helps

Pads are none removable. The pads are stitched onto the fabric. I don't know about compression shorts but all bibs I've tried are tight. The tight fit helps with wind drag. For this reason I bought the bibs to fit me tight.

Hi Jehlen,These are good for wicking away sweat, also since fingers are in thin cloth, it gives protection from blisters too and super comfy. But they are not compression.

I have varicose viens that are med to bad on the top of my right foot..a few spider viens in both legs/feet. I have invested a baby fortune in compression socks & #1 I couldn't see they did any good #2 I'm not sure I'm even stron enough to get them on #3 they always irritate my skin, they sweat, they are impractical for daily wear. The TC stockings are compression BUT you can get them on, they don't cut off circulation @ my knees, they don't sweat, they are comfortable to wear all day and they control the pain & occasional clots in the varicose viens--I LOVE THEM, I don't think of them as stylish but with pants & tennis shoes I guess no one knows or cares. Hope this helps

Compression shorts are generally intended as the undergarment layer. Traditional briefs or boxers would not be comfortable worn under compression shorts, due to the tight fit. Athletic supporters (jock strap) could be worn under compression shorts, if necessary.

Yes. I pull them tight but I have to allow for circulation. I had no idea the thing would be this big and heavy. I am using it by just laying it on my knee while I am lying down.

I really don't think this will work. I bought this device for my father, who had a hip replacement surgery recently. He uses some heavy duty socks, which are a little less harder than compression socks. Well, the device worked for that, but honestly I really don't know if this will do the same for compression socks.

Yes but they do not have padding on the outside thigh and hip area like sliding shorts do. I use these for MMA fighting. I love them. Mediums are between 32 and 34.

Regular Zensah compression sleeves are thicker, softer and warmer. They provided more than enough compression to help cure my shin splints. This is why I tried them. The ultra compressions helped when I ran an obstacle race. There was more impact on my legs from the jumping and landing on uneven, rocky ground. It was in mid-July and their light weight was nice because of the heat and water obstacles. It dried quicker.

Yes but the material used is long lasting; unlike some other brands where the Velcro hooks come unbent and the soft material becomes fluffy. Has not happened to these shorts. I have three pairs and they get used a lot!

I find them easy for me to take on and off. They just slip on and off effortlessly for me but they are tight fitting but comfortable I think. I have hip problems so that is why I use the compression shorts.

I clicked yes thinking it was for, yes, I'll answer the question. My real answer if the shorts ride up is -No. I have two pairs and have had no issues. This is a comfortable short.

Hello! These are for children. These did not work for us though. They are too bulky for my girls and the velcro straps are uncomfortable. Plus ours fell apart after wearing only a handful of times.

They grip fairly well, I haven't had a sword fly out of my hand when I was wearing these. The half-fingers also help with your grip. So, all in all... Yes, the pads help with grip(even though you can't compare it with a bare hand) Hope this helps! God Bless!

I think you have a better chance of these pads working for you. My problem was the tip of my toes. I hope this helps and I hope if you purchase them that they will help. Thanks for asking for my opinion.

The material is pretty thick compared to my compression running socks. I don't feel as of it's that breathable. However, it does provide ample compression and I have not pulled a calf muscle since investing in compression sleeves for my calves.

Definitely don't wear underwear w the compression shorts. They are very comfortable to wear under shorts or athletic pants. I recommend them. I wear them every time I work out or run

I haven't tried this brand on yet, but most compression stockings will relieve swollen feet/ankles (temporarily).I don't know about cramping.You may not need pantyhose; there are other options that stop at the knee and/or thigh.
