Hi all,

I am looking for some lightweight summer tights, similar to those used by runners.

Can anyone reccomend some. The shinier the better!

Cheers

    Nice one, thanks.

    Shiny stuff gets a bad press, but it seems a lot cooler in summer, whilst been uncool too. I wouldn't risk anything but black though.

    Padded would be great.

    Cheers.

    Hold-ups are as good as knee warmers I've heard....

    In the summer and indeed the autumn in the UK all you usually need are bib shorts and leg warmers. It's enough to keep me warm anyhow. I wouldn't think of actual bib tights until at least October.
