High performance thermal trail running tights

The Slipstream thermal Trail Tights are cold weather running tights for long efforts in the cold. Constructed using body mapped fabrics such as fast drying Thermal Dynamic and Granite Loft on the front thighs for additional wind protection. Finished with Polygiene® odour control and reflective detailing, these tights are designed for long days on the hill in autumn and winter.

Our Verdict

The lightweight 4-way stretch metering facilitates unprecedented freedom of movement. I’m pretty new to running and hiking in tights, but I’m a big fan of these; it feels like you’re not wearing very much, yet you are still well-protected from the elements. The additional thermal lining is soft and comfortable next to the skin. It’s warm but moves moisture away from the skin well.

On the rear of the waste line, you have access to two small stretchy pockets, which are big enough for some energy gels but not much else, and the zipped pocket between these is good for keeping your keys safe but not big enough for a mobile phone.
