Along with the Smartwool Active Fleece Pullover, this set stands up to cold weather extremely well. It will keep you warm even with the temps approaching zero without limiting your range of motion for activities like running. I found these while trying to find men’s leggings for outdoor winter runs, which was a challenge in of itself (most “leggings” for men are just base-layers, apparently). I am happy with my purchase. If you’re a bigger guy like me, order for the waist size because the bottom of the pants do a good job of holding on to the ankles. My only nitpick with these pants is that the drawstring makes me feel like I have to be gentle due to the material used, but it has worked so far without issue!
Very comfortable and warm. Good for long runs in the cold weather. They do fit a little big though. I’m 5’11 175 and I always wear medium. Had to size down to a small in these.
Warm, reflective and comfy. Feel right at home running in these
