Forums >Gears and Wears>Guys-What are your favorite cold weather running pants?
I'm not really digging my old school baggy sweatpants.

I used to be a big fan of Sporthills, but they are now harder to find and not the same quality as they were 10-15 years agon.
I now wear a pair of Sughoi running pants. They are tapered and more form-fitting than your baggy sweatpants and synthetic so they do not turn into sponges.
2013 goals: Kick some arse. Moreso than 2012.

Proofread carefully to see if you any words out.

I normally don't like tights, but I have some Frank Shorter tights that are fleece lined that are wonderful.
When it's really cold, I'll wear my Zone 3 (or what ever the coldest zone is) pants from Sporthill.
Link to a previous conversation on the topic. I'm not in the same mindset as Spaniel on the SportHill...I'm still a fan. But I am planning on looking at the North Face Windstopper Hybrid pant.

Thanks for the link Miltruck, very helpful.
Sugoi Firewall - best winter running pant I have ever had.
I run in a pair of ralph lauren sweat pants from the early 1990's. They've never failed me yet.

pearl izumi select thermal running tights work for me.

If it's warm enough I'll just wear shorts. If it's a bit cool for that I wear running tights. Colder than that I wear shorts over running tights. A bit colder than that and tracksters over shorts. Very cold - tracksters over tights.
(Not sure if "tracksters" means something the the US - they're tracksuit bottoms designed for running in, you can get them in different thicknesses.)
Asics Myles II: hard to beat the price, they'relightweight, reasonably breathable and wind-resistant, and no static cling in dry winter conditions.
But I run much more in my CW-X tights than any running pants.
How cold? I have a couple of pairs of the basic light Nike Dri-Fit pants that I like. But I don't typically run in temps much below freezing.
The process is the goal.

Asics Thermopolis LT tights....our winter lows rarely get down to the mid 20's F.
I'd also consider others, such as Pearl Izumi....but would pick running tights over running pants.
