What is the difference between compression and baselayer: The main difference between compression and baselayer is that compression sits slightly tighter on the body applying a certain degree of pressure onto specific areas to enhance circulation, delivering the oxygen-filled blood to active muscles, allowing you to work harder for longer whereas a baselayer is more of a temperature regulation item that uses moisture-management or wicking to eliminate moisture from the skin which depending on the style may heat up the area of your body or cool it down allowing optimum body temperature.
