those of you who run with and without (compression) leggings, what differences do you notice? (feddit.de)

do you also notice differences if you use ½ lengths or compression shorts?

I wear full length ones when the outside temps are below 10C (~50 F). No discernible help with muscle soreness or fatigue.

I found this study (here which says there might be some benefit wearing them after a run to reduce recovery, but no benefit during. I have a pair so might give it a go on my next long run.
