Sugoi vs. Sporthill?

[ctxcrossx]

Hello,

I'm trying to find a pair of really warm tights for winter. I am thinking of either the Sugoi Subzero Zap tights

or the Sporthill Summit tights

Has anyone tried either of these? Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I have a few pair of sugoi tights, I think two are sub zero. They do keep me warm, but one pair tends to slide down a bit. I don't think it's because they're the wrong size though. I'm not exactly sure why they do it, but I think they're more for cycling and aren't used to being worn while running or something. They're a bit noisy, the fabric makes a shushing noise when I move...

I don't think I have any sporthill tights, but they look pretty good, fwiw.

I just got a pair of the Sport hill Zone 3 XC pants they are not tights but they do fit really Snug... Cold will not happen to you while wearing these....

I have the Sporthill Summit tights, got half price from a store last spring, very warm. The Sporthill 3SP fabric is excellent: tight enough to be windproof but still breathable, unlike a nylon shell. The Sporthill Zone 3 XC tights are great too, a little looser fit on the upper part if you don't like skin tight around your butt. The only thing about the Summit tights is they have a seam at the knee which sometimes I notice rubs a little. When it's really cold I wear a thin tight or poly pro underneath the Sporthills.

I have the Sporthill XC pant and it is virtually impossible to get cold in them. They are great. I haven't tried the tights.
