It is worth spending a bit more and getting some tights that offer compression.
I have used Skins, UnderArmour, Nkie Fit, and they all work.
The best thing is to try it and see Flob.
If you have problems with calf niggles, then buy a pair of compression socks.
If you notice the difference, then consider investing in a pair of tights.
Get a pair of small tights from m&s try them after a run if they work buy posh compression stuff. Cheap solution
Oh and no, real men do not wear shorts over their tights.
Ever!
Don’t worry Flob, they can’t catch you anyway!
I just picked up a pair of Ronhill 'Advance Contour Tights' which I picked up on sale.
They feel very comfortable although I've yet to try running with them. I mainly got them for the very cold days / days where it is raining, as I usually wear shorts.
The only downside is the zip pocket on the rear is rather small. I can fit my iPhone in just but it might be hard to get it in whilst they are on & I have my keys to think about too!
I've yet to decide whether or not I will wear shorts over the top - it really depends on whether I need the extra pockets & if the water is wicked away well or not.
Either way I couldn't care less what people think of me, it's purely functional... although I don't think they look bad by themselves
When I was at Uni a couple of years ago, it was quite "fashionable" amongst the Rugby players to wear full length tights & shorts in the cooler months.
