Review: CW-X Stabilyx Tight

I finally got my tights! I wore them for the first time last night after a long hill workout and I must say they worked great. No soreness then or this morning.

I ordered XS's and they feel tight enough. I definitely could not just slip them on - had to pull them up more like pantyhose.

I wish it was cool enough to wear my Ventilators all year round! They were just barely on the edge of being too warm for the marathon last month, where it was a steady 54°F (and I wore a short-sleeved top).

I might go for a pair of the shorts, but I really like the support on my calves, plus I'm afraid they'd ride up. Anybody have the Ventilator shorts?

Not the Ventilator shorts, but I do have 2 pairs of the Pro shorts. I usually wear them on my "long" runs...which is probably not very long, by most runners standards. :p I didn't notice any riding up while wearing them. Then again, the Pro shorts sit just above the knee...so they are pretty long, in terms of length. But they do provide lots of support, especially in my lower back and hips, and core. However, they are a fairly thick material...so might be a tad bit warm on a super hot day.
