French term or phrase:légère précontrainte
magazine article reviewing a training shoe described as:
chaussure d’entraînement asymétrique avec une ** légère précontrainte**, permet des prises précises tout en procurant un confort élevé.
That's all that's said in the article about this particular product (apart from its name which unfortunately is of no help at all).
I've found socks, T-shirts, shorts, gloves, ... with light compression, but not shoes - do you think this could be the first? Or does it mean something else?

Hi, Sheila.
I think something like: sports shoe with a light 'initial tension' [sth. like that, putting up the shoe's solidity + resistance in order to guarantee a perfect comfort + grip).
Just a guess... ;-)

Grading comment
Thanks Carol - lots of convincing links there (now, why weren't they there when I looked?)
The updates to the menu were made to make the site easy and more intuitive for visitors. Obviously, like any change, this may take a few days to get used to.
The dropdown menus have been divided into two-dimensional panels with similar items grouped together under headings. This eliminates scrolling for those with smaller screens, and also improves readability.
Mouseover your name at the top of the screen. Here you will find information about your account, your email settings, and more. The "My ProZ.com" menu was moved up here to simplify the main navigation, and to keep all of this type of information together.
