    The purpose of this study is to design high performance tights with motion enhancement and injury prevention effects. A pelvic posture control is focused as the designing key. The anterior tilting moment on pelvis is produced by adequate compression under wearing tights. We proposed the moment calculation method from compression distributions on anterior and posterior surfaces of pelvis. The validity was checked through investigation the relationship between the calculated moments and pelvic anterior titling angles under the static standing condition wearing tights. The titling angles were measured by using 3D motion capture system. Therefore it was confirmed that the pelvic posture could be controlled by the titling moment under not only standing but also dynamic gait conditions. This indicates that compression can be an important key to design the high performance tights.
