[#2182504]

Size XL, colour unimportant (they're for running, most of which I do either in the dark or where people don't know me!)

Cheapness good.

Alternatives considered but not proper running 'tights' - I do have [i]some[/i] standards and consideration for others.

I'd have to let others be the judge of that.

It's a sad truth that there simply isn't a good look for the bigger bloke running in the winter - Ron Hill's are amongst the 'least worst'.

Call off the search, people.

I found some for £10.94 posted on EBay. And they're blue with yellow piping too - a new combo for me. Might have a pint tonight to celebrate!

Team it with a navy blazer and you'll look like the cavalry. Btw, JJB are doing a 3 for 2 sale on everything in store, which I found out last night when I finally bit the bullet and got a high viz jacket. Came out with Nike "proper running tights" (as you'd call them). Really sexy they feel...

I was wondering why anyone might be looking for a new pair, I guess higgo must have a very big stick.

Pair them with that purple base layer & orange top you have and I would say you have a winning combo 😉

I guess higgo must have a very big stick.
I think his weapon of choice is an axe, well he does seem to have a bit of an thing about them!!

Actually today's running top was blue with yellow sides (Aldi special).

I shall have to be careful not to wear it with the new tracksters in case I'm accused of 'matching'.

As much as I've resisted Ron Hills for winter walking / climbing, pals use them and you know what, they really do the job and don't look [i]that[/i] bad.

Hmmm, £10.94 you say....

Ooof - why would you? Many years ago I wore tracksters, and never again. Since then I've always run in shorts, even in winter. Although this year I think I may, just, be tempted by some running tights 😕

Mind you, you can legitimately shove socks down the front and claim 'it's just for warmth' if anyone cottons on! 🙂
