110% recovery shorts

Does anyone have any experience with the 110% range?
I'm looking for recovery aids, I have c-skin tights. I have very achy legs today and have done after my last few runs.

I'm aware you can run with the compression shorts on and add the cold packs after you've finished to speed up recovery, a bit like an ice bath, but has anyone taken the plunge

Normally after a 10k+ run my legs get stiff at the evening.
I ordered the Large size which are meant to fit 33-35" waists, perfect for my 34"gut
After a 10k run I had a shower and tried them on. Very tight so tight infact i almost gave up. The ice packs had only been in the freezer for an hour. I was a little disappointed with the fit. That night my legs felt a little better than normal.
Today i decided to use them as compression shorts, got them on much better than the first time, they are much tighter than my Nike and C-Skins compression shorts. I ran my normal 10k+ run and got home. I put the ice packs in.
I'm now sitting typing this with ice packs doing there job.
I'll update you all to the benefit of the ice packs tomorrow.
You can also microwave the packs to get them to warm you muscle up. pretty versatile.
Come in a nice thermal insulated bag with hook, apparently the ice packs will stay cold for 6hrs inside the bag.

The ice packs do the job very well. The garments fit is dreadful, way too small. Either I've got massive legs, or they are just crappy. At £80 i would have thought 110% would have got this bit right.
