Really supportive!
I love these tights. They are so comfortable and yet very supportive. They last a long time too so I believe the price is very fair. I wear them for running, biking, and kickboxing.

Great running tights
I wore these for my first marathon and they gave me the support I needed and they kept me warm (was in the 40s that day). I also wear these for my longer runs and I love them!

great for bad knees
I had been looking at these for a long time before making a purchase. Playing softball for many years brought knee injuries that often prevented me from even attempting short runs again. These tights are knee-savers! The support provided is enough for me to remove the nylon braces I normally wear. And the compression helps to control any jiggles that happen on impact. Great product! I wish I had splurged sooner!

A Must-Have!!!
If you're a cold weather runner, than these tights are a must. Although a little difficult to put on (which is how they're suppose to fit), the extra effort is well worth it. Many people need support for their knees (which they do), but what I love is the added support for the hips. And most importantly, they don't dig into your waist like so many other tights.

Too small for me
I ordered the tights for me and my teammates,but they were kind of small in size.I didn't expect that.so,I returned.But the quality is great!I would order the same style for sure.

Excellent support and great look
I purchased the tights for the support and warmth. When I first opened the package, I was concerned that the size was too small, xs. But once I managed to squeeze myself in, I felt it gave me good support on my calves and thighs. Eventually, the tight loosened a little and I was able to fit in much easier. It's better to go small than large due to support. I also received many compliments on the look. Very happy with the purchase.

This is my second pair of stability tights. I run and bike in them and they are great for my knees. I am 5'5" and 110 lbs. Small is a great fit but they are on the short side. (I wear taller sox). I like a lower fit at the waist so I turn them down and tie them tight. I wash them and hang them to dry. I love these and recommend them for running and biking.

These tights really work!
I'm 57, with some lower back and knee issues. I don't know how I originally found the link to Altrec.com, but I've found my new favorite place to shop for special gear!
These tights really do provide extra support for my lower back and knees.
The sizing charts are spot on, but I was indecisive about whether to choose up or down, as my size fell right on the line between sizes. Altrec's chat help advised me to go with the smaller size for more support in the knees.
The first time I put the tights on, I panicked because they were so tight. Not to worry, though. After putting them on a few times, I realized that the fit is exactly right. My back and knees are so much better with the tights on, I hate to take them off after my short walk/run in the mornings.
Since I only have the one pair, they have been through lots of wash and dry cycles, and are still like new.
I seriously recommend these tights. They're worth the extra cost if you need the support. I've been running in Texas heat or on a treadmill inside so far, so I can vouch for the fabric's ability to wick moisture away so I don't feel all sweaty. Look forward to seeing how they are in cold weather.
They make me look good, too. Not that matters, right? ;)

Best running pants ever!
I bought these thinking they are expensive, but they proved to be worth every penny. A bit tricky to put on at first, but once they are in place they keep everything tight and protected. I noticed less fatigue during and after a run, and I have no more knee pain. At over 40 and after 2 kids, I appreciate that there is a running pant that makes me look like I have a flat stomach. I just wish they had them in more colors and with fun designs.

Great Support!
I have a pair of these in the capris but I love the full length for winter running and added support for my knees, they are also great under snow gear for skiing!

Great tights
I love these tights. I bought them as a replacement for my performx tights. I love how springy they feel.

Need 5 pairs
So I bought these because I jacked up my knee running right before my week long snowboard trip and they totally did the trick. No knee pain at all the whole day. I am 5'2" 112 and the XS were perfect - tight the first time I put them on but then formed better to my body and were easier to get on after that. One note - put your socks on FIRST if you are snowboarding or skiing - the stitching left a mark on my calf the first day till I figured this out. Ran in them today and it felt GREAT! My posture was better and felt like I had springs in my legs - only did 5 but I have a 10 tomorrow and I can't wait to see how they handle the increased distance. Will be getting these in the summer cooler version in a few months.

So light and bouncy
I love these! I wanted support through my mid-section after two c-sections and these have great support.
