compression shorts
Tight exercise garment
Compression shorts are form-fitting athletic shorts made from stretchy, elastic fabric that hugs the body tightly.
They're worn to support muscles, reduce chafing, and wick away sweat during exercise.
Athletes often wear them under regular shorts or as a base layer: I always wear compression shorts under my basketball uniform.
