with Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) in
Australia.
Now the research paper into the accuracy of the device has been published and
presented, this is a really important story for Compression wear! SKINS are once
again way ahead of the field, having developed 400 Series garments based on the
compression needs of MOVING ATHLETES.
