Whether you’re headed to shred the mountain or just down the street to the office, the I / O Bio Merino Women’s Contact Tight keeps your chilly bottom-half warm. The merino wool controls your body temperature when you run, ski, bike, or hike so you don’t sweat and stink up your new ski pants after a tour in the backcountry. The Contact Tight is also an everyday tight that looks and feels good with skirts and dresses on cold morning commutes to the office.

Bottom Line: All-purpose bum (and leg) cover.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

The contact tight is smooth, soft and warm. I am a 5'8 athletic build (with skier legs) and the Medium fits me perfectly. I brought these on a recent expedition to Denali- and used these as my only base layer on summit day. They are tremendous performers in the fluctuations of hot to cold- adapting well in varying degrees of temperature. They resist moisture and odor well (I wore these at least 10-15 days in a row), and are a fantastic insulator against the cooler temps. Highly recommend these for skiing, mountaineering, alpine climbing or even just lounging around the house- but for that they have the "Contact Track pant" which are also extremely comfortable and stylish.

Very Comfortable

I like the top and matching bottoms. They are real comfortable and kept me very dry and are perfect for layering. I wore the set all week skiing in Colorado in February. It is even great for after ski wear. I can see myself wearing these for other activities as well
