Hi, I am looking to get a pair of long distance tights, that will provide sufficient insulation when its too cold for shorts, but wick, and may be treated for water resistance. Any suggestions??
I have a pair of Asics winter tights that I am very pleased with. I did not run with them through puddles nor in the rain so I cannot report on water resistance.
Ive got a pair of Ron Hills waterproof thingies and found them good on cold nights -- but if I get to 8 miles I would have to take them off and swap for shorts tp allow my legs to breathe better
I'm with 'tafkate', Nike dri-fit tights worn over dri-fit cycling shorts for some, er, support. They don't have those annoying foot strap things that bug the hell out of me!
I'll add to the general accolade for Nike Dri-Fit: although I'm not so keen on the "extreme" version, it has to be *very* cold indeed for them to feel anything other than too sweaty. Mind you, judging by the snow outside my window, that criteria might be met for this afternoon's run...
