Well those Ibex Approach sale tights got here and they are AWESOME!
So nice and thick and stretchy- I love the way they feel against my bare skin- they have a very pleasant soft subtle nubbly texture, like a gentle massage while wearing them. I HAD to order a pair for myself as well. Interestingly, although the mediums do fit me well (snug, like you expect tights to fit), I like the slightly more relaxed feeling of the large, so I am getting a large for myself. They are very luxurious! I can actually wear them around to places when not biking, because they are not as revealing as thin tight lycra tights. I can't even imagine why they would be on sale in the first place!
