Introducing ISOBAR – Pioneers of Personalised Compression Therapy.
ISOBAR is a UK-based technology and advanced manufacturing company that has been at the forefront of Personalised Compression Therapy for over 20 years. Combining leading-edge medical science with advanced materials engineering, ISOBAR has created a range of Customised Compression Sportswear designed to optimise recovery and enhance athletic performance.
Driven by a mission to set new global standards for human performance and lifetime care, ISOBAR's approach is focused on the individual needs of each athlete. From Olympic-level cyclists to grassroots competitors, ISOBAR’s Personalised Compression Therapy delivers precision-targeted support to the muscles that need it most. By reducing fatigue, promoting blood flow, and accelerating recovery, ISOBAR ensures cyclists can train harder and more frequently while still being ready to and compete at their peak. Since 2012, ISOBAR’s Customised Compression Sportswear has been a vital part of recovery and competition preparation strategies for elite athletes and sports teams across multiple disciplines, including cycling, sailing, swimming, running, and other physically demanding sports.
The Partnership with British Cycling
As the Approved Partner Supplier of Customised Compression Sportswear to British Cycling, ISOBAR will support British Cycling’s elite teams across all disciplines in their post-training and pre-competition journey through to, and beyond, the 2024 Paris Olympics. This partnership represents a shared commitment to marginal gains – the pursuit of small, measurable improvements that combine to deliver world-class results. With ISOBAR’s Customised Compression Sportswear, British Cycling athletes will have access to garments that have been scientifically proven to enhance muscle recovery and support performance.
"ISOBAR offers a unique capability to provide custom-fitting compression garments, delivering the desired level of compression to targeted muscles to enhance the recovery process. This has maximised our riders' capacity to recover from and adapt to training and racing, ensuring they reach their full potential as we prepare for the Olympic and Paralympic Games this summer. With British Cycling known for leading innovation globally to find marginal gains, we firmly believe that ISOBAR shares this value and will contribute to our team's global success."

How ISOBAR’s Customised Compression Sportswear Works
1. Precision-Fitted Compression Sportswear
Unlike off-the-shelf compression wear, ISOBAR's compression sportswear is custom-made to anatomically fit each individual. Advanced video scanning technology is used to create a precise 3D model of the athlete’s leg, ensuring the compression sportswear contours perfectly to their shape.
2. Targeted Compression Where It Matters Most
Custom-fit technology allows ISOBAR to apply variable precise pressures along the length of the leg, delivering targeted compression to specific muscle groups. This ensures maximum blood flow, reduces lactic acid build-up, and supports the athlete’s ability to recover from intense sessions.
3. Science-Backed Recovery
Backed by 20 years of R&D in medical and materials science, ISOBAR’s Customised Compression Sportswear is clinically proven to improve circulation, reduce swelling, and accelerate the recovery process. Athletes experience faster recovery times and reduced muscle fatigue, ensuring they can train harder, and recover faster and be ready for competition sooner.
4. Designed for Every Discipline
While cycling is at the heart of this partnership, ISOBAR’s Customised Compression Sportswear is already supporting athletes across multiple sports, from sailing and swimming to running and beyond. The same benefits apply to every discipline where recovery and performance are critical.
