      Comments about Mens R-Gear High-Speed Compression Fitted Tights:

      Got these for Xmas...wore them out on New Year's for a snowy mtn run in Bulgaria with a buddy. 2 hrs into our run, got attacked by a hunting dog....significant laceration on thigh. Compression tights show no wear/tear at all!! Couldn't believe it... I needed stitches, but my pants are unscathed.

      Oh yeah, the tights kept my junk together until I could get off the mtn and seek medical assistance.

      Comments about Mens R-Gear High-Speed Compression Fitted Tights:

      Initially I was very impressed by this product. Out of the packaging it seemed to be well constructed and the sizing (I'm 5'10", 180 lbs and medium fit me nicely) was right on. My only complaint is that the ankle zippers don't have any kind of backing material, so the zipper rests against the back of my ankle. After five miles this resulted in a bloody raw spot. For a few more cents, they could have sewed something in to prevent skin-zipper contact. Once again, thanks to RR for hassle-free shipping to an APO (an increasingly rare thing).

      The large tall inseam is listed wrong here. I took a chance and ordered 2 pair. They are great - AND LONG. I'm 6'3" and the LT fit me great! I typically wear 34X36 in slacks. Great tights as well - fit & material.

        Great, cost-effective article of clothing for your running wardrobe. Very comfortable in all pertinent areas: crotch, waist, inner thighs. Looks to be made of durable material... I've worn my pair consistently on my morning runs and have not been let down. Highly recommend.

          Comments about Mens R-Gear High-Speed Compression Fitted Tights:

          I used this product once so far - for a 1/2 marathon run. Though Februarys in Minnesota can be bitter, this run took place on one of the "warmest" days of the winter. Temps were in the mid-40s that day and the tights felt great. I had worn them one other time (right when I got them) when the temps were in the single digits BELOW zero. I could feel the cold through the tights then. But, I can only imagine that they would have been sufficient or near-sufficient had I been running. Wearing the tights on race day proved to be more than I needed for warmth. Nevertheless, they felt great. They were tight enough to provide a great deal of support but not too tight to be constrictive. The ankle zippers were a nice surprise and frankly speaking, the complaints I had read previously about the zipper chafing the ankles are moot if one wears reasonable socks (a little above the ankle).

            I bought two pairs and on each one I have the same comments and issue. The stitching comes together at the base of the crotch in an open diamond shape with cloth sewn over it. When running you don't notice it. When you jump in the shower after six miles, it will grab your attention immediately. Happened to me three times, now I use Body Glide in that area.

              Comments about Mens R-Gear High-Speed Compression Fitted Tights:

              I bought these primarily for running in the cold and rain of Northern California winter. After wearing the Velocity tights for a couple of runs, I can vouch for their warmth, lightness and non-chafing qualities on a 12 mile run.
              Everything I know about the compression factor is anecdotal, so my expectations were low for that feature...and I still can't tell if it makes a difference for me. My strongest feelings can be expressed by my purchase of a second pair yesterday.

              Comments about Mens R-Gear High-Speed Compression Fitted Tights:

              These are mostly everything I expected; warm, comfortable, don't get in the way. I've noticed that the draw string is pretty short and as I'm putting them on, I've lost it into the hole once or twice - was a pain to get out. Not a huge deal, since you don't need it to hold them up if you've sized them right. Also, it took a few tries to get them hiked up and "in place" so to speak. They want to sit low in the crotch by default and I had to work a little bit to get them all the way up and "situated."

                I bought these tights for my husband who is 6'3" and usually wears a 32-34 or 32-36 pant. I bought these in a Med tall and they are plenty long for him. He loves that he doesn't get hot in them and they seem to massage his legs while running. I'm getting ready to buy another pair.

                    I am an avid runner and these tights are perfect for brisk Colorado mornings in the winter. I'm 6'8" and the XLT fit great. My first run with these was a 9-miler and I didn't have one complaint. The zipper rubbing was a non-issue. Great for bike rides too. Highly recommend, especially if you are a tall guy like me.

                      Very good quality and very comfortable. I'm on the tall side so having the tall options in sizing is awesome. The size variety allows for finding the perfect fit. Vent panels are great. I have used these down to 30F and they have functioned perfectly.

                      The bottom line is that I bought the cheapeast pair of tall-size tights I could find. I should have held out for something more expensive. The zippers in the back of the leg are always riding up; the drawstring in the waist is constantly falling through the loophols; and a very strange clothe pad under the groin feels just downright... well, strange. Buy something else. Don't waste your money.

                        Needed last minute gear in case in rained. It did not rain but was great with the changes in temp from the cold morning, a little sun shine to to a windy finish. Wore it at the 2012 L.A. Marathon and feel it improved my performance overall. No chaffing and wore them without breaking them in which I was afraid of. Highly recommend it.

                        Tights fit and feel great. My only complaints are with the drawstring. 36" waist 36" drawstring ? as soon as you go to put them on, drawstrings gone. I just pulled it right out and don't use one. Also the rear pocket stretches open with the tights. can't trust it for keys or such. I can only recommend for us tall folks because tall w/o clothes are hard to find.

                          I live in a country that men's running tights are becoming popular.
                          I'm 6 feet 4 inches tall and my legs and ankles are now really covered. I ordered Medium Tall and they fit really great.
                          I recommend for anyone that enjoy running tights for morning running or gym training.

                          Thanks RRS!

                              I typically have a problem with most tights being too short and riding up the ankles. These fit well and had plenty of length (I'm 6'1"). I use these mostly for xc skiing and they're very comfortable.

                                This is my first pair of tights and definitely not my last. I got these for running and they are everything I wanted: warm, comfortable, good fit, extra features like key holder and ankle zippers. I definitely recommend these! I looked all around and you can't beat the price.

                                Initially I was very impressed by this product. Out of the packaging it seemed to be well constructed and the sizing (I'm 5'10", 180 lbs and medium fit me nicely) was right on. My only complaint is that the ankle zippers don't have any kind of backing material, so the zipper rests against the back of my ankle. After five miles this resulted in a bloody raw spot. For a few more cents, they could have sewed something in to prevent skin-zipper contact. Once again, thanks to RR for hassle-free shipping to an APO (an increasingly rare thing).

                                The large tall inseam is listed wrong here. I took a chance and ordered 2 pair. They are great - AND LONG. I'm 6'3" and the LT fit me great! I typically wear 34X36 in slacks. Great tights as well - fit & material.

                                Was considering buying this until I saw the large tall inseam is 30"! Since when is the tall inseam shorter than the inseam on your regular pants?

                                Great tights. Great contoured shape. Nice ankle zips for my giant calves. Better finishing on the inside zipper material and then you could say, "Are these really RRS?"

                                I use these by themselves on my trail runs in SoCal. At 6'0" they fit perfectly with no bunching at the ankles and are very comfortable for running on slightly cooler days when you don't want to wear shorts. I would recommend these to someone who has never owned or used compression pants before before you spend big buck on something more extravagant. I give these a 5 out of 5 because for the cost and quality and function of the product.

                                Recently bought a pair as my first ever pair of running tights, and I gotta say I love them. Would recommend these to those having never worn a pair of tights before dropping serious change on a more expensive pair.

                                Bought mine to wear as a base layer in the cold weather. I'm 6 2, and tall fits perfectly. Any longer and they would bunch up at the ankles. 30" inseam is perfect.
