    Comments about The North Face WindStopper Hybrid Tights - Women's:

    I acquired these to replace other (tattered, holey) tights I'd used for Sierra backpack & mountaineering trips. I like tights because they provide great freedom of movement and tend to accommodate my thunder-thighs better than most pseudo-womens-cut hiking pants (segue: why do most outdoor manufacturers model their women's clothing according to small men's styles???). These tights were perfect right out of the plastic bag: they fit without binding, the rise is "classic" - i.e. it's not a low-cut hipster/modern rise and is perfect for the 50-somethings among us - the windproofing feels adequate (haven't tried it yet) and the ankle zippers are long enough to be able to roll up the pant legs above the knee. I have not hiked with them yet, but plan to take them on a Nepal trek later this month.

    The front pockets are not at all bulky, and a nice addition. The reflective tape parallel to the ankle zippers is also a nice touch for evening speedwalks or runs.

    My first impression of this garment is that it's generally more perfect than most. Really. I'm cursed with a classic pear shape, could stand to lose a few pounds, but am in generally decent physical shape...many so-called hiking pants, IF they fit in the thigh, are far too large in the waist. These tights are the best of both worlds: they have a nice ribbed texture that makes them great for outerwear, but there is no excess fabric. The fabric itself appears to conceal offensive lumps or bulges (i.e. provides good muscle support) and looks like it will hold up to some abuse. They would be too warm for running in 65-degree weather - but would likely be perfect for hiking in sub-60-degrees, as well as climbing or running.

    If I were to make one suggestion to TNF: put a flexible cord-lock on the waist drawstring. That would help alleviate deciding which knot to use :-) to keep the drawstring taut -

    I hope to write a subsequent review after the Nepal trek. So far, I'm thrilled with this garment.

      Comments about The North Face WindStopper Hybrid Tights - Women's:

      I got these for winter bicycle commuting in NYC. Rode downtown in them for the first time this morning in 26 degree windy weather. They fit great, they are very flattering and comfortable, and not as tight-fitting as actual "tights." They make a swishing noise when walking in them, though, and they were about as good at wind blocking as my Title Nine Cold Killer pants. I would recommend these pants highly, but you will definitely want a base layer under them if using them in extreme cold.
