Favorite running tights!

These are a solid 9 out of 10. They are the most comfortable tights I have EVER ran in. True to size and fit beautifully. Hands down the best! The only reason they’re not a 10 for me is because they don’t have a pocket for your phone if you use the back pocket for a water bottle. I was able to fit my bottle and all the fuel I needed for my 8 mile trail run no problem but ended up holding my phone because it didn’t fit in comfortably in the side pockets (I have an iPhone 17 pro) if these had a front pocket or even better- side phone pockets on the leg that would a a no brainer 10 for me. I will 100% still be wearing these A LOT! Highly recommend.

Awesome material and incredibly comfy. The fit was perfect. I loved the grip at the leg openings. Material was lovely and the no front seam has my heart ( I cannot believe in 2026 people are still stitching front seams). An additional front pocket would mean perfection

Great shorts

These are great! They are super thin and light. They have grips at the bottom to keep them in place and three large storage pockets around the waistband. Love them!

Great fabric and stays in place

The fabric is incredible, stays put. I really love the anti-slip thing on the thighs so it doesn't ride up. The pockets are great.

Holy grail shorts

The second I put these tights on, I knew they were everything for hot weather running. They are soft and thin so I don’t overheat. The silicone around the hem of the pants leg is typically something that bothers me in other shorts but I can’t feel it when wearing these. The amount of pockets is awesome. no front seam?! Obsessed. I only wish there were more colors. I love the purple but it does show sweat - worth it anyways and won’t keep me from wearing them. Fits TTS.

Not for me

I was looking for a longer short for trailrunning. Due to reaction on my skin to some plants needed extra protection. Well this fit but the thigh fit flared out on my leg. Sent back with paid shipping, no free returns unfortunately. Overall the price was too expensive for the fabric, construction was good though.

Sorry to hear the product didn’t fully meet your expectations.
Our materials are made with high-quality Nylon-Lycra® fabric, and we continuously work on improving both the material performance and overall construction based on customer experience.
Thank you for your feedback and support.

My favorite running tight

These are so comfy! I love how the pockets can hold so much yet things don't feel clunky when I'm running. The fabric feels really light and I think they look so flattering.

APEX Trail Running Half Tights

The Apex Trail running Half Tights are my go to and my favorite pair of running tights. The tights are light and breathable and it’s a big plus that there is no seam down the middle of the crotch area. The tights do not ride up because of the anti slip leg openings and I don’t have to worry about chaffing issues as I run on the trials and for miles on ends. I love the waistband pocket can carry a 500mL flask and it does not bounce. It’s quick drying, perfect for the hot Phoenix weather.
