TESTIMONIAL

"I received the Accapi FIR products in early December 2011, when I was returning from America.

In particular at that time I needed the knee guards and since then I use them for skiing and also in many other situations, especially when I feel discomfort in the knees. When I wear them now I feel a great feeling of warmth and stability and after ten seconds I forget I'm wearing them because they are so comfortable and allow complete freedom of movement. Since I began to use them the discomfort I had to my knees (which was sometimes real pain) declined. When the land on which I ski iseither hard or very soft and ski flap, if I wear the knee guard my joints do not swell and hurt as it was before the use of these guards and I was often forced to use more cumbersome knee support to continue skiing. Indeed, a really good result!

Another thing I needed was the back guard, I find it very useful because it keeps me back very warm and I do not sweat. For a period, I had discomfort, pain almost, to my back then I started to wear the back guard all day and also during the night and I did just fine. It is not annoying and leaves full freedom of movement, it seems that has the power to "dissolve" the lumbar muscles, like a massage!

Then there's the pajama: I've been using it since fall 2010, I use it when I am tired and it helps me to recover my strength: I wake up and I feel better, I no longer have aching muscles, it makes me feel more rested than when I'm using another type of pyjama. It 'also very warm, true that I've always warm at night, but hey, I'm fine with this for sure, especially at my house where we keep the heating fairly low.

The last products I've tried are the top and culottes: the latter really amazed me because after the fall of the World Cup slalom in Courchevel I had a large bruise on one buttock and using them it was absorbed very, very quickly, a lot faster than usual when I have a bruise like that.

When I ski using Accapi FIR underwear I always feel warm and protected, with the maximum freedom of movement. It's very convenient, since I have it and use it both for skiing and gymnastics in the afternoon. And if I'm around and I have to wash it, it dries quickly and the next day I can use it again!"
