UA Frosty Compression Tights or ?

[zoom-zoom]

They are not particularly compressive (they are tights, but not TIGHT tights), but they are probably my favorite Winter tight for temps in the 30s and 40s--especially for the price. They are super stretchy and run long. I don't have long legs at all, but I have always thought it's nice that they are long, since most insulated tights strike me as something that wouldn't work for anyone with long legs. They wick well and are warm. Only thing they could use would be ankle zippers and a pocket of some sort.

MTA: that they are fabulous on the bike over regular bike shorts.

Don't buy tights without ankle zips. They are a pain to take off/on.
I love my Sugoi Mid Zero and SubZero tights. I use them running with Ibex wool undershorts/wool Teko socks and cycling with my cycling shorts and wool socks.

Yep, my SubZeros are my go-to tights when it's too cold for the Frostys. I'm still commando under all tights, though. The first year I ran I'd still wear undies and it didn't matter which ones I wore--even the $$ sport-specific ones--I'd end up with bloody welts on my butt after about 5 miles. Seams and I don't get along.

I will say that the ankles on the Frostys are stretchy enough where they work without zippers. EVERY other tight without zippers is a no-go for me.
