Salomon running tights

[jessmarimba]

Anyone tried them? I'm looking at a pair but there aren't any left in my size at the store, so I'd have to order them. I also can't find any reviews online.

Do the sizes run normally? (The Salomon website US size chart page is blank!!)

Thanks in advance!

I have an old pair of Salomon capris that I got on sale, so I expect they're a discontinued model.

They've held up reasonably well over the years, although some of the seams are showing a bit of wear, and I wear them in the gym a lot more often than I run in them. I guess I was wrong when I said I'd never run in capris. :o

If old sizing is even relevant ... my Salomon capris are Small, which is the same as I wear in CW-X. I wear Medium in Adidas and Mizuno shorts and Large in Brooks. On the cycling end, I'm between small and medium in Shebeest, large in LG. HTH.

It kind of helped? Haha. I wear a Med in CW-X and a small in brooks :)

But these looked like they run snug and aren't as stretchy (like the CW-Xs) so I think I'll try a med. Thanks!!

I should add...the only size they had left was XS and they didn't look like "hey I could wear those if I lost 5 pounds," they looked more like "hey I could've worn those when I was 12."

Bought the Trail IV capris. I love these tights. I love the fabric, mostly, but then they have the little mesh area behind your knee so people who sweat a lot behind the knees (like me) don't get too uncomfortable. The fabric is soft and not even remotely see-through, unlike the 30 other pairs of capris I tried on, but it's still lightweight. I think these are already my favorite bottoms and I've only worn them out once :)
