Rab Talus Tights

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Close-fitting but not restrictive, the latest Talus Tights feel built for fast hiking and high-output runs across varied terrain.

Rab says: 

With their body-contouring fit and weightless feel, the Talus Tights are essential legwear for fast-moving trail runners. Crafted with a highly durable stretch fabric for complete mobility, they give you the freedom to negotiate tricky terrain, while breathing and wicking away moisture when intensity peaks. Now upgraded with better fabric recovery than ever, they offer a closer, more supportive fit to keep you comfortable as you move at pace through rock-scattered fells.

Our Verdict

At 372g in Medium, they’re on the sturdier end of running tights, with a denser Flexile 200 fabric that feels durable and breathable. The update to fabric recovery is noticeable — the fit stays snug through long days without sagging. The wide, elasticated waistband is comfortable and stays put without digging in. I found the rear zip pocket roomy enough for a phone, and the mesh pocket is excellent for quick access to snacks or gloves. The cut runs slightly cropped on longer legs, but the gusset panel gives superb freedom of movement.
