Anyone else running only in tights?

Yes. All I wear are half tights. Just because they are comfortable. Short shorts in hot weather become soggy grocery bags slap against my thighs. All the Kenyans wear half tights. Half tights for all training. Short shorts for races and time trials.

You are a serious minimalist. I always wear shoes (yes, I'm a pvssy)

Shave your pubes, not your legs, problem solved.

Thanks for the responses, anybody else?

Its all I wear.

I swear by them. I wear them when I travel, I wear them at work, attending Church, taking the girls to school and even presenting the State if the Union.

I go back and forth between very short 2" Nike shorts and half tights.

I'll be honest here, I can't wear the half tights on long runs because the seams chafe my dick and balls. So, for workouts and anything under an hour I'll feel comfortable with tights.

Also, I'll wear tights if I know I'll be running in more public places. Somehow, they are more socially acceptable. I've never had someone yell "HEY FA#*&*&T" at me in tights, like I have when I've worn split shorts.

It is hard not to look gay when wearing tights. Why don't you wear a pair of athletic shorts like a normal heterosexual instead of wearing skin-tight tights that expose your balls to the world?

"athletic shorts"

Most running shorts have a terrible elastic stitched seam around the edge of the liner, that causes major problems with the legs/butt especially when sitting, driving a car etc. For that reason I always rip out the liner and use something else, for example some comfortable nylon undies.

On occasion I've worn tights, and they are comfortable as long as they aren't too.. tight, but they do look quite gay displaying your stuff to the world, so I'm not comfortable wearing them. Also I don't care for anything being tight on my legs. They are okay with a running shorts shell over the top of them.

They "do look quite gay displaying your stuff to the world" if you have the stuff to display.

It's downright embarrassing when you don't.

I'm not talking about me.

I just has blood circulation that takes oxygen to the parts of the body that needs it 'is all.

just went for a run in tights; felt great.

I finally got a pair of half tights. I'm going to have to get used to them for sure. I usually run in 3" splits so it's a change.

I agree that splits do get a bit crappy when they are soaked. And mine get soaked either from sweat or rain on every run this time of year. Never had an issue with the liner other than sometimes my stuff makes it rub my quad and I'll get a rash. It's just a sign my stuff is really big and I look really gay in half tights because I'm showing them to the world.

Thats what Im talking about

Plus I dont have to show chose between showing my pubes and all the upper leg hair or shaving/trimming, I dont like how I look shaved (chicken legs) and trimmed (as I said before, sometimes it looks like bad shaving and everyone can tell you are trimming because of the little spikes all over your legs)

Tights on guys are gay--man, you guys should know this.

Oh really? Guess who's going for a run in his tights today?

Really? How old are you? Do you care that much what other people think? Maybe this is an opportunity for personal growth.

People have hair. Everyone.

Split shorts have jocks straps built in so why are you wearing underwear with them?

Are you people serious? Shorty shorts or nut vices are your only options you can think of?

There's only ONE product that you can wear anywhere, people will love and respect you, and they provide all the comfort you need whether you are running 3 or 25 miles.

JORTS!!! The bonus is that most even come with 4!! pockets to put your keys, money, gels, or anything else you might need on your run.

Don't forget the denim calf sleeves. No self respecting true competitive runner would be caught without theirs.
