Customer Reviews Smartwool Active Fleece Wind Tights

Will be wearing these tights to bike on cold days. First wear - kept my legs toasty with a sub-30 degree day. Only rated 3 stars because there isn't a way to tighten the waist (gapes on me), and the crotch starts to sag. Won't be wearing these for running as I had wanted to.

I ordered a similar 'pant' 2: years ago that I absolutely love. I use them For Nordic skiing. The new tight is nice, however it is really more of a tight, then a pant. The older pair have a wider leg opening fitting nicely over my ski boot. The new tight is much shorter in length (too short) has a open pocket for a phone. Which is not very compressive the phone wants to fall out while running. And only one secure zip pocket. Instead of 2 secure pockets. I didn't see that my older wind pant style was available, so I ordered the closest version. Do not like it as much for the reasons stated.

I love these tights for cool weather cycling and plan to use them kayaking this spring. They allow good knee bend and will cut the wind riding my bike. They'll also allow full movement for portaging on Rocky shorelines and help keep my legs dry when kayaking in cold water.

I bought a pair of these at a local store and loved them. Found another color on line and I can't tell you how great they are. I took them kayaking on the river. The water temp was 56 and, unfortunately, I fell in. Not only did I stay relatively warm, my pants dried almost immediately. And they never smelled bad! They're so comfortable and I would wear them constantly if I could!

Just received these pants a was able to use them while on a fat bike ride. Temperatures were about -3 Celsius so not too cold and these pants were perfect. Love the thigh pockets. My phone tucked into one perfectly and stayed put.

I live in Chicago and need warm pants for my outdoor winter activities - jogging, cross county skiing and walking outside. This is my second time purchasing these pants. After 10+ years, my previous purchase is wearing thin! I have recommended these pants to family and friends as well.

My daughter bought a pair of these tights for me years ago because I really like my legs to be warm. I wear them in the house and outside constantly in the Fall, Winter and Spring. I live in Alaska and these keep my legs warm and cozy without having to wear thermal underwear. They do run a little small, so size up. I love them!

Have used these tights multiple times since purchasing, mostly hiking in cold weather. However, I bought them for shoulder season cycling over bike shorts and am sure they will be great for that. I am very happy with the fit and quality. They breathe well while retaining warmth and are super comfy and soft. I am happy I purchased and will get a lot of use out of them for various winter activities.

It's really tight and flattens my buttocks and my butt isn't actually flat. Fits tight and short ankles. Yes I washed gently and hang dry.

I have three pair now and use these for Nordic skiing. The wind block in the front is great while breathable in the back. The pockets are perfect. And the waste is high enough. Very comfortable, warm and nice looking.

I love these warm pants for outdoor winter activities especially windy days. No need for extra layers!

I use these for the gym and for hiking. Smartwool did it right with this one. Durable and stretchy.

Avid outdoors enthusiast and have discovered the Smartwool products are of the highest quality.

I'm so impressed. Got these to run a 50k in the middle of winter in Philly. I did add another thin running legging over it (18 weather PLUS wind) and as a chronically cold girly I was SO COMFY!!! The sweat was wicked away, my legs were warm and the material is soft, all a bonus when your running for 7+ hours at a time

My boyfriend purchased these for me so I could keep running in the cold, snowy northern Michigan weather. I have been comfortably warm and dry and able to move easily in them. I like the reflective elements since I usually run in the early morning and I like that they have one open pocket and one zipper pocket. The open pocket is great for quick access to items like tissues and the zipper pocket keeps my key safe. They also clean up easily in the gentle cycle!

Absolute love these! 20 degrees with a stiff northwest wind, no numbness or redness! Very comfortable.

Love these active tights! I was gifted a pair by my sister-in-law and cannot be without them. That pair is several years old so I'm replacing them with a new pair. I live in WA state and wear these for my daily walks from October through April. Can't be without them. 5'7", 125 lbs and the S fits like a dream. In fact I think I'll order another pair just in case they stop making them. So comfortable and adaptable! Worth the price, they hold up well and really last!

I wear these pants for cross-country skiing winter and fall running. They're comfortable and durable. I love them!

I love these! I am a beginner skate skier in northern Michigan. These keep me a perfect temperature when the air is between 10F-35F, even when windy. I don't use anything under. I would purchase these again! Very comfortable too. Love the pockets. My waist measures 26inches and I ordered the XS. Good length on me, I am 5'4".

Very helpful in windy and cold days. Zippers are also user friendly

I love these tights! So cozy and warm, ankle zips are a nice feature. Great for biking or running in winter.

I purchased these after having another pair of 10 years that were wearing thin. I was very impressed with the subtle adjustment and upgrades since the last purchase. Breathable and keep me warm. These tights keep me running when the temps drop.

I was struggling to find the perfect apparel for my outdoor runnings during the winter. So, I did my research and tried this very recommended tight pants. This was a game changer for me. I feel warm from the begging of the running. layers and still not overheating. It really shields me from the cold winds tanta can be break you during the run. LOVE IT!

With our super cold winter I am grateful for these tights. Great insulation and the wind protection really adds to keeping me warm.

Great quality. My first tights are 3 years old - still look great. I love the pockets and the zippers on the ankles and the zip pocket . They are warm and comfortable
