【Emergency Supplies】Opened and tried the 3COINS compression T-shirt and compression gloves

I used the 3COINS compression inner T-shirt and compression gloves to verify whether they can be practical emergency items that can be easily prepared. Is the T-shirt suitable for emergencies? Can the gloves also be used for everyday life?

Preparedness brings peace of mind!? If it's compressed, no space needed

When it comes to disaster preparedness goods, many people might end up shoving them away in a closet after buying. What I discovered is the compression series from 3COINS.

The prices are reasonable and the design is simple. Since they don’t take up much storage space, I thought it would be easy to buy them without hesitation.

This time, from the compression series, I purchased inner T-shirts that are always useful to have on hand. They are thin, lightweight, and the compact packaging is impressive.

Additionally, I bought work gloves (2 sets) that seem handy to have when the time comes. Since there are two in a pack, they are convenient for doing tasks simultaneously.

The compression inner T-shirts are worth having if you can consider them as stock.

First, what I want to try is the compressed inner T-shirt. It's compressed to the size of a palm, and I couldn't even imagine what shape it was in before opening.

Upon opening, the fabric is surprisingly thin and somewhat transparent. True to its product name, it gives the impression of an inner T-shirt, and wearing just this one piece outside might draw some harsh looks from others.

Its lightweight and compact nature makes it easy to store, but compared to everyday T-shirts, there is indeed a noticeable difference in fabric thickness and texture.

That being said, it's sufficiently practical when viewed as emergency supplies. There's a reassuring feeling about the basic clothing principles of not lowering body temperature and maintaining cleanliness.

Even when I sweat from light exercise, it dries quickly with almost no stickiness. It has better breathability than regular T-shirts, and even when sweating, it maintains a cool and dry feeling.

It didn't lose its shape after washing, and the quick-drying property remained unchanged. While it may not be suitable for everyday wear, it's a reliable piece that can be washed in emergencies. I felt it was just right if I consider it for stock rather than regular use.

Compression gloves are surprisingly useful and can be used for everyday purposes

Next, I tried the compression gloves. They are compressed tightly enough to fit in the palm of your hand, making you doubt if there are really gloves inside at first glance.

Upon opening, the compressed fibers slowly expand, returning to a texture that retains some stiffness. Rather than being fluffy and soft, they have a solid feel to the fabric.

Although they are thin, they fit just right. The shape returns perfectly to the fingertips, allowing you to use them immediately, which gives the impression that fine tasks can be done easily.

When I actually tried weeding, I found they were not slippery and fit comfortably in my hand. While it is true that they may lack the strength of thick gloves, there is absolutely no problem for short tasks. They don't get stuffy and are just right for light work.

Not only as a disaster preparedness item, but they also seem suitable for home gardening and car maintenance. Since they pack small, I recommend keeping them in the glove compartment of your car.

Not perfect, but sufficient as a preparation

When I actually tried it, the 3COINS compression series was a "non-space-consuming item that is reliable in case of emergencies." Emergency supplies tend to be left unused, but if they can be easily used in everyday life, the barrier to preparedness is significantly lowered.

The T-shirt is for emergencies only, while the gloves are also useful for everyday use. Neither are perfect, but there is a reassuring feeling of being glad they are there. Small preparations can become significant support. These items give you that sense of reality.
