“Our recent athlete survey results are promising with 80% of Pivot Short users reporting a performance increase and 62% reporting significantly faster recovery time when wearing the shorts after long runs,” says Kari Ricigliano, Marketing Director of Samara Innovations, LLC.

“The Aspaeris Pivot Short was designed to help prevent injury, but clearly our athletes are learning that APS provides so much more.  We wanted to make what one of our Facebook friends dubbed 'Magic Pants' available to more runners and female athletes by offering a special trial discount.

APS™ is the only compression short designed specifically for females that improves performance, speeds recovery, and prevents injuries. APS™ is being worn by thousands of new users and has been tested by over 100 premier sports medicine professionals and athletic trainers.

Introducing Aspaeris

Aspaeris™ Pivot Shorts were created because women's sports are evolving at a lightening pace. In just a few generations, the moms who once played competitive sports like lacrosse in the 70's now watch their daughters play much different games. Young women athletes push their bodies to their limit. They jump, turn and pivot with ever-increasing determination and drive. An unfortunate result is that these athletes suffer a wide range of injuries. (read more)

We created Aspaeris™ to help protect female athletes from injury and enhance their performance with advanced compression apparel. As a female-centric company, we believe that the performance demands female athletes make on their bodies are unique. Our goal is to develop a deep understanding of those demands and create products that specifically elevate performance and protect her from non-impact injuries.

Aspaeris Pivot Short™

Aspaeris Pivot Shorts™ are actually two pairs of shorts bonded together. The Outer Short is a high performance compression short designed to support your muscles. The Inner Short features our breakthrough, Dual Sensory Compression Bands™.

These cross-knit bands guide your muscles into the proper position, thereby improving your pivot performance, which helps prevent ACL and hip injuries.

Women are more susceptible to knee injuries than men, a fact long attributed to differences in muscular and skeletal structure. A new study suggests gender differences in the nervous system also may play a role. (more)

The New Haven Register reports: Perhaps only someone with the disarmingly friendly, infectious personality of Katherine Simon could consider tearing up their knee a blessing in disguise. (more)

The Aspaeris Pivot hort™ is not an ordinary compression short.

Athletes who try the APS™ report feeling more confident in their 'pivot moves' and almost all feel more in control without being restricted.

We'd like to hear about your experience

We rely on feedback to help improve our products and spread the word about your experience.

We've set up Facebook and Twitter, where you can share any experiences you've had with our Pivot Shorts. We've also set up a blog called No-ACL-Hurt. It's a fact that about 500 female athletes a day suffer ACL injuries. Our blog is where female athletes can enter the ACL injury dialogue.

Our goal is to develop a deep understanding of how to prevent injury and to create products that specifically elevate performance and protect athletes from non-impact injuries.

We're here to create technical performance apparel to address the complex needs of female athletes. 

Our product designs are fueled by continuous feedback from athletes. We seek to constantly evolve and improve our next generation of products so that they adapt to whatever standard our athletes seek to achieve.

Our first product, the Aspaeris Pivot Short™, was developed because currently in the U.S. alone, over 200,000 female athletes injure their ACL each year. That’s a lot of hurt, physical therapy and lost seasons. We created a patent-pending system of compression bands woven into hi-performance shorts that help prevent ACL injuries in female athletes. Our patent-pending system is called Dual Sensory Compression™. On this website, you can explore the ACL Injury Info and Products sections, where you can learn more. Athletes who wear Aspaeris Pivot Shorts™ report improved confidence as they move and that their ability to change direction is enhanced.


Aspaeris™ is a new brand launched in 2010 by Samara Innovations LLC, a New Haven, CT based start-up.  As a female-centric brand, Aspaeris™ is creating an advanced line of compression apparel designed to help female athletes prevent injury and improve performance.   Their patent pending, Dual Sensory Compression technology uses non-intrusive compression that guides female athletes to improve posture and optimizes their form.  The company's first product, Aspaeris Pivot Shorts™, was designed in response to the overwhelming number of ACL injuries among young women athletes playing pivot sports such as soccer, basketball, lacrosse, volleyball and field hockey.  Unlike ordinary compression shorts, Aspaeris Pivot Shorts™ guide wearers into proper “knees over toes” position, reducing the likelihood of ACL injuries.  Aspaeris Pivot Shorts™ are currently being tested by female college athletes at institutions including: the University of Massachusetts, Duke University, Yale University, Drexel University, and the College of the Holy Cross.  Aspaeris Pivot Shorts™ are available for purchase by athletes, sports teams and organizations and aspaerispivotshorts.com.  Pivot Shorts are available in black, blue, white and red in XS, S, M, L and XL.
