Not Worth It

I bought these for winter hikes, and they will NOT keep you warm at all. Better for spring and early autumn. Definitely something above 5 degrees Celsius. I’m also in between sizes, xxs was a tad bit too tight and went up a size xs for comfort, which kept falling off (I’m 5’0” and 110lbs), stretched out after 2 wears that I can no longer wear them on hikes. So disappointed ☹️

Comfortable But Still Durable

I think Fjällräven really succeeded it balancing the comfortability of tights with the durability required for trekking in forests. These are a perfect combination of the two- flattering and well fitting tights that hold up to the scuffing and scratching that comes with trekking through a natural environment. They still look brand new after several washes and many many treks. The added warmth is such a nice bonus!

Probably More For Autumn Months…

So I’ve been wearing Fjallraven’s Trekking Tights HD all summer here in Alaska and have been really excited to purchase these for winter hiking. I’ve decided that leggings are much more comfortable for me because I love the freedom of unrestricted movement. I got them in the mail today and was deeply skeptical of their warmth rating due to them being paper-thin. They didn’t seem that much thicker than the other Fjallraven tights I wear. So I took them on a trial walk around my neighborhood in 24 degrees F and my legs were very cold. By the time I got home the skin on my legs were red, and I was gone for only a half hour. Oddly enough, the coldest part of my legs were my thighs - where the wind panels were supposed to be. So I wouldn’t recommend these for winter hiking, but maybe they will be warmer with more strenuous exercise. And yet I don’t think I will risk ruining a mountain hike by trying these out again. Perhaps they will be better in the interim seasons like spring or autumn. I am on the fence if I am going to return them or not. I’ll probably hang onto them because they are very comfortable and soft. Fjallraven is my favorite brand, so it makes me sad to leave this review. I am 5”7 and 140lbs. The medium fits perfectly.

Love

Went hiking in the Lake District and discovered my abisko tights were too large. Fortunately, I found a Fjallraven vendor and found these tights, which turned out perfect as I need a bit more insulation. I love the feel of these. They kept me warm on some pretty brutal days. They dry quickly. I am absolutely in love with Fjallraven tights, and these are a new favorite.

Disappointed In Quality

I was really excited to get these Trekking tights. All other product I own have been very high quality. I love this brand however on my first trek in these tights, I rubbed my leg on a rock and the tights ripped just below the knee. I do not think it was aggressive enough to rip my pants and I am really disappointed in the quality for the price. The pockets are nice and I was warm and comfortable throughout the trek. Wish they were better quality for the backcountry.

How Low Can You Go? (On The Knee Pads) Lol

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] attractive pants but knees sit too low for me I'm 5'2 123 lbs and the small was really too small for me. I could see my nude colored underwear when I bent over. If I size up I'm sure the knees would sit even lower? Didn't wear them any outside but it's good quality fabric but I can't see these keeping you warm in anything under 45 degrees. Just my opinion.

Not For Petite Women

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being 5’4”, I typically wear regular length pants but these leggings are not working for someone my height. I think the knee pad area sits lower than I would like. Also, these leggings were don’t block the wind well. I do like that they are high quality and won’t rip, tear, or snag easily.

Best Men’s Tights

After 2 years wearing these in most color (I own 6 pairs), I can promise to the guys out there the thickness of the tissue finally allows a pair of tights to be worn by men without the ‘bump’ showing. Humble yet sexy. I am 6’3” and 100kg and started with the L. Actually the M even fits. Pricy but unkillable.

Great Fit!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the way these pants fit! I always love the look of Fjallraven pants, but these aren’t as warm as I hoped. I’ve used them in lower temps (20-30’s F) and my legs are cold to the touch. I definitely have less expensive rights that keep my legs warmer.

Absolutely Love These Tights

First let me say that I'm not a person who wears tights - never have been - but these have changed my mind. I was on the fence about ordering for the longest time and I'm so glad I finally did. They are thick enough that they feel more like pants to me and oh, so comfortable. The waistband is high, but not too high and the overall fit is just perfect. The leg pockets are deep and secure and the reflective piping at the ankles is a really nice touch. I had thought I might need to wear long underwear with them to be warm enough, but the wind proof panels are a life saver and they are plenty warm if you keep moving. (*An added bonus is that dog hair does not stick to them!) I'm 5'6, 140 lbs, average build and the Medium fits perfectly (In the Keb's I wear a 38EU)

Great Leggings

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great outdoor/hiking leggings! They are warm and seem durable so far. I live on the Northern California coast where it’s cold most of the year. These leggings are perfect for exploring in! Love them :)
