Anyone have brand recommendations? I'm searching and finding a whole bunch. I'm intrigued by Compressport. They have compression shorts, 3/4 tights and quad sleeves. If the compression is much better than my CW-X than the 3/4 tights seem to make the most sense.
The idea of after skiing makes no sense - compression isn't only about recovery. I exclusively ski in Point6 OTC ultralight compression socks. They are perfect minimalist ski socks and matched with 3/4 length compression tights (I use CW-X) you have total compression coverage.
You will realize why this is so beneficial just during your drive. Extrapolate from there.
