The fabric definitely has some issues with heat and sweat retention.

The fit is comfortable and the inseam is close to perfect for me.

Nike actually does a good job on options, with XS to XXL in these half tights.

Excellent build quality without feeling excessive.

Comfortable fabric without feeling overly synthetic. Mesh for pockets is excellent.

I have experienced virtually no chafing in this, but occasionally the inseam droops a bit and I get some pinching.

Sit at a great location on the hips and do not shift on the run (no plumber's crack).

Near perfect, though perhaps a more versatile or larger rear option would be an improvement.

No doubt they are expensive, but this is a case where I believe you are getting what you pay for.

Relatively minor complaints with slight room for improvement, but an overall excellent pair of half tights.

While the ribbing of the fabric makes it feel a bit thicker, I've had no major issues with uncomfortable sweat retention. They retain sweat, but don't get gross or feel saturated.

Fit is excellent, as always with Tracksmith — just wish the crotch didn't pull in and look weird at the seam.

Available in XS to XXL in men's.

Basically nothing to fault, which is what I expect from Tracksmith. Waistband is maybe a touch overbuilt.

Typical Tracksmith fabric quality — superb. Drawstring could just grip itself a bit better.

I have had no chafing with these and see no reason to expect any.

Even without the drawstring grip, these stay in place and don't ride down at all.

Deeper side pockets than the Turnovers, though oddly placed — and you lose some rear pockets.

They are expensive, no doubt, but you are getting what you pay for.

Typical Tracksmith quality, trading some fabric luxury from the Turnover half tights for adjusted pocket options and a little more compression. Just don't come expecting Tracksmith finally delivered a cargo half tight.

The fabric is on the thicker side for half tights, with a brushed feeling interior. Moisture seems to build up a fair bit.

The fit is comfortable and the inseam is close to perfect for me.

Standard size options (XS to XL), but not fully inclusive on the upper end.

Excellent build quality with durable feeling stitches — overbuilt, if anything.

The fabric is very comfortable, but not as luxurious as some other half tights. Pilling starts quickly between the legs.

I have experienced virtually no chafing in this, but occasionally the inseam droops a bit and I get some pinching.

Sit at a great location on the hips and do not shift on the run (no plumber's crack).

Sizeable rear zip pocket and drop in pockets on each leg.

On the expensive side given the sweat management and pilling issues.

Excellent fit, quality construction, and tons of pockets make for a great half tight. They would be perfect with a slightly lower weight, pilling-and-rubbing-resistant fabric.

No noticeable issues with sweat build-up. Decent breathability.

Extremely comfortable fit with minimal movement while running. Waistband and drawstring are dreamy.

A reasonable range of options (XS to XXL), but not fully inclusive on the upper end and across the color range.

Seams feel well built, stretchy, but not noticeable against skin. Unique construction to prevent chafing.

Incredible fabric for comfort on the run, but seemingly at the cost of pocket options and durability (pilling).

Only had faint pinches for brief moments when things weren't positioned quite right.

Sit at a great location on the hips and do not shift on the run (no plumber's crack).

Great pockets for gels and small items, but limited space for a phone.

A bit expensive, but mostly justified given the materials and quality.

Absurdly comfortable with reasonable size options (in some colors). Just wish it had better storage for large/heavy items.

Excellent breathability and sweat evaporation. Never soggy.

Quite comfortable in general, but issues over the long run with stretching. Could use some padding on the waistband.

A reasonable range of options (XS to XXL), but we all know Lululemon has some troubled history with larger folks.

Every seam seems well thought out. Bar tacks everywhere. Feels like it will last (and it has, for me, with minimal wear signs after 2+ years).

Comfortable fabric against the skin, but unfortunately has stretched out a bit over time. Drawstring could be slightly better.

Only had faint pinches for brief moments when things weren't positioned quite right.

Can be hard to get the waist tight due to drawstring material. Stretch over time has led to a bit more risk of crack exposure.

Well placed and adequate for carrying things on a day to day run. Side pockets could be slightly taller.

A bit expensive, but mostly justified given the materials and quality.

Comfortable, quality construction, and solid pockets. Just a few minor improvements could be made.

As a relatively lightweight, high spandex content material, these seem to retain the least sweat of most half tights I own, but still not perfect.

In the same size I wear in other brands' XL, these are a little long in the leg and rise, with an issue of sliding down a bit over the run. It feels like I could maybe size down.

Standard size options (XS to XL), but not fully inclusive on the upper end.

Excellent build quality with virtually nothing to fault. Lightweight, but durable stitching throughout.

Very stretchy, not overly compressive, and seems durable enough, but a rather synthetic feel.

Perhaps due to sizing, but these slide down a bit on the run — not just the waist, but the whole short (leg openings, crotch, waist).

Another mention of maybe needing to size down, but even with the drawstring digging in, somehow the rear slides down a bit.

Sizable rear pass through pocket, plus two very deep side pockets on each leg — but stacked, which limits what fits.

On the expensive side, but feel durable, well designed, and well made.

Well constructed with reasonable carrying capacity. I want to love these more, as they seem very popular, but they aren't my favorite.
