rock had asked about this stuff. I plunked down a bunch of dough last week for a thin pair of ColdGear tights. Took them out for a test run last Thursday in sub 40 degree weather and loved them. Kept me warm, but not too warm, and definitely wicked the sweat right off of me.
I loved them so much I wore them for my marathon with weather in the fifties. Wasn't too warm, never got cold. LOVED them. They fit like a glove, made me look 10 lbs lighter and didn't rub me the wrong way anywhere. They also didn't slide down my legs as some tights tend to do once I sweat. After 26.2 miles, my legs were bone dry because they are supah wicking. Again, I purchased the thin pair, but they have thicker ones for you tundra people with a fleecelike lining.
I give these tights 4.5 out of 5 stars (they lose a half point because they're expensive, running about $50).
