0:00.0 | Exoskin. Exoskin, show us your skin. You can go on to social medias and show us your skin |
0:11.0 | and tag that. That's the Exoskin tagline. And we're here with Kroy. He's from Exoskin. |
0:18.2 | He's a vice president of business development. And they've been developing a lot of good |
0:23.2 | business over there at Exoskin. We've been talking for a long time about their socks. |
0:28.7 | They're toe socks specifically. They make other socks too, which I usually run on my, |
0:32.6 | where are my training runs, but they have great socks. But we want to talk specifically |
0:37.5 | about their compression shorts. Kroy, tell us about the compression shorts that Exoskin |
0:43.3 | has and why they're better. |
0:44.7 | Sure. Well, thanks for the opportunity. We just launched a new line of shorts and tights, |
0:54.4 | a couple months back. And it's a totally new design. So we've had compression shorts for a |

1:38.3 | tights three quarter, and then a full length tight. These have gotten rave reviews from our |
1:44.9 | customers and ambassadors who have been field testing these for almost a year now. Just because |
1:51.9 | it's a totally redesigned as a lighter material and different knit structure. And it feels a lot |
1:59.2 | different when it's against your skin. And really, that's the name of the game for us is keeping |
2:05.0 | you comfortable. A lot of people say, you know, when they put these on, they don't even feel like |
2:11.2 | they have shorts on. So it's the next best thing to to running naked, I guess. |
2:17.4 | Corn, have you ever ran naked? Not that I'm willing to admit on the show. |
