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.

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.

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

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.

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.

RRS Velocity are the Best Tights for the money, fit like Pearlizumi, 30 inch inseam is perfect on the LT, this is a standard fit for tights....great buy!! Thanx RRS give them a try, you won't be sorry!! MO Trail Nerd!

6'2" & 170#. Medium tall are perfect. Plenty of length. No issues with the ankle zippers. Ran in 35 degree morning and very comfortable. Back pocket perfect for door card.

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

Best compression tights I have worn as a new runner.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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!

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

Excellent value. I will purchase more Road Runner gear!

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

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.

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

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.

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

Just one run in them and I'm sold! My prior pair of tights from Nordic Track have lasted me a year, but with weight loss, they've gotten a little loose. These are a nice replacement and I'm very happy with their fit, even for a bigger guy (235 lbs)! No bunching and they stayed put from waist to ankle.

Does the job

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

These are awesome I am a 6'1' tall female and long fit perfect- yes I wear the mens- womens are never long enough. I have run in them in cool weather and I wear them with another pair of running pants in below zero weather. They fit great and I like the zipper legs. Keep up the good work of providing us tall people with clothes that fit.

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

great tights, well constructed with excellent styling

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

I wear these tights almost everyday during the winter and feel they give the best compromise between running comfort and warmth of any tights I've tried in 35 years of running. I like them so much, I ordered two more sets.

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

Great fro 40 to 50 degrees (f) in the winter months...not too cold here in San Diego, CA but these help me stay loose on early morning runs.

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

These are great tights. I live in Northeast Ohio so I wear tights quite often because of the long winters. These tights fit snugly but allow easy movement due to the vents behind the knees. In addition, they have a lined crotch that provides some wind protection. My only complaint is that the zippers around the calf/ankle have a tendency to rub if placed in the wrong area. The pull tab for the zipper is large and several times it has rubbed the skin raw. So just be careful to place on the inside of the calf. Beside that I love them!! My wife was always stealing my tights so I even bought her two pair of woman's velocity tights and she wears these over her more expensive ones now.

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

Ran first winter training run in snow, wind and 17 degree weather. No chaffing, felt nice and snug and kept me warm. Only issue is drawstring too short on first use but elastic worked well without it.

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

The only reason I gave these 4 stars is the drawstring. I thought it was funny when I saw that comment in the other reviews. But, the people where 100% right. I almost lost the string the first time I put them on. Great other than that one little thing.
