Great Purchaase
I have worn these tights for many years and they are still going strong. I ordered a second pair as they are so versatile. I use them for biking, skiing and trail running.

Men may prefer the Ibex Energy Tights in W
Both my wife and I really like these Ibex Women's Energy Tights for skiing and biking and as an inner layer for less active winter pursuits. We find they fit us well. I am 5' 10" 160# (chose women's L) while she is 5' 2" 117# (chose Women's S but can wear XS) in this garment. I could not wear the size M. The size L is slightly long in inseam for me and the size S is for her but that is not noticed since we just push this up a bit and the elastic fit takes care of that. These tights are beautifully crafted and designed with a substantial merino knit fabric that holds snug and at the same time gives and does not bind. There are other models that lack the ankle zippers and the men's version has only a flimsy drawstring instead of the nice broad flat wool sheathed waist design of the Women's version. We really find the latter to be the better choice by far. We've more than one pair each and expect they will last a long time with proper care.

second childhood
These are great! I bought these tights for cold weather inline speed skating this fall, and for nordic skate skiing later this year. I am 5' 3" and the small is a good fit. These tights will show off your muscles! Better yet, the woolen jersey is a beautiful heavy weight that instantly took me back to the days of childhood when my brothers would wake up us younger girls well before daylight so we could skate before school. Back then, we had red tights! Now I'm 44 so black is just right. For the past 35 years those old woolen speed skating tights were the standard against which I measured all other sports fabrics. Now I have them again, in a modern, intimidating, athletic fit. Cool! I love Ibex's smooth, tight wool.
