Customer Reviews Hot Chillys Micro-Elite Chamois Tights

Honestly the best base layer that I have ever bought. I used to wear regular yoga pants/ leggings, and they were fine, but did not do much for regulating temperatures on the mountain. I boarded in Breckenridge, Vail and Tahoe and they did not stretch out, and kept me warm. They are thin enough to fit under slim fitting snowboarding pants and warm enough to wear in 2-10° weather. I am a size 27 and I bought the medium. They fit perfectly. The waist band is wide and very comfortable.

The inside is super soft. They kept me warm underneath my snowpants while snowboarding in the winter. The butt area is pilling, so I would not wear these as leggings, but under pants to stay warm in cold temperatures, they fit the bill!

I’ve purchased many thermals for skiing over the years. These are by far my favorite. Comfortable, warm, and keeps everything in place like lululemon yoga pants.

very very comfortable and warm, good if you are tall. I am 5'11 and 150lb

I used these under lighter weight stretchier pants for hiking in 30-40 degree weather. They were perfect and probably would perform well at much colder temps. Comfy, warm, cozy. 5' 3 1/2" 135lbs. Medium was a perfect fit.

You've come a long way baby! If the last time you bought "long johns" was too far back to remember than you are in for a real, great surprise when you buy these! Materials and warmth have come a long way. A must for the winter weather people!

I am 5 11 and not too short! Very comfortable for layering for skiing and much less expensive than other brands

Too Big - I have big hips and skinny legs. I bought a large to hopefully curtail the "muffin top" look (where the elastic cuts into your sides and your fat sticks out a bit on the sides). Anyway. The pants work great! They feel wonderful, but the larges are too big. They bag a bit at my knees and it still gives me muffin top. They are a good purchase though.

Soft, cozy and warm. Just what I was looking for to wear under my pants in the winter. Runs a little large.

These are very warm, I used them as a base layer while skiing and very comfortable and warm, since they aren’t too thin, you can wear them with a long shirt if needed

Perfect long underwear bottom for cold weather activities like skiing! Can't go wrong with Hot Chilly's.

These are awesome! So very warm on the ski slope's and under pants to dinner in the evening. Warm soft and cozy not bulky ????

I've been wearing these as leggings with rather fancy outfits. They keep me warm and look fine!

Long Underwear have certainly come a long way! When I first put these on I thought they would never keep me warm skiing in the cold snowy weather in Utah, but I was wrong, I was toasty warm all day. I will be buying another pair!

I went to Utah skiing and never even got a chill. These really worked well for me.

Medium was too big. I am 5-6" & approx 120+ lbs so thought I'd be a Medium based off the sizing chart. These were Very baggy in the bottom. I had to exchange for a Small which was a good fit. Usually I worry about losing length going down a size and these were right at the ankle, not too high. I prefer a little more length but these were not pulling, comfortably at the ankle. Socks can cover the difference. Medium weight, haven't tried in the cold before but have purchased Hot Chillys in the past and have been happy. These do not have the seams so can pass easier for leggings. Overall very happy.

Bought them to wear underneath pants - didn't work out as well as I wanted as my pants were warm enough.

These fit perfectly and were great as a base layer under ski pants in 26 degree weather. Any colder though, would probably need a warmer base layer, but I tend to run cold. They are thin but warm and can nicely be worn as a legging.

Great weight (not super heavy, but not too light and layers well), holds up well (so far) to use and washing. The front rise (just below waist) is perfect, waistband is very comfortable. My only complaint is inadequate coverage on the back side for me (I wish the waistband in back stayed as high up as in the front, but it is lower). I'm 5'3", 125 lbs.

Fit is great and material is vey comfy!

perfect

I'm 5'6" and 134 lbs., and the medium was perfect. I plan on wearing these as a base layer for cross-country skiing. They're not sheer so I may wear them without a top layer on warmer ski days.

Bought these to primarily wear with oversized sweaters and they are great!
