Which size and model for telemarking????
I'm 5'3" and 120 lbs but carry most of my weight below the waist. I also have pretty lousy circulation so by the end of the day, my lower legs are quite swollen. I want some tights for overall compression (to help venous return) and knee/hip stability while telemarking. I am worried about tights bunching up behind the knee as I tele which might further hinder my lower limb circulation.
Recomendations please :)

Hi There. I would recommend a size Small 3/4 Stabilyx tights to you. I use the 3/4 version for all snow activities- Alpine, Tele, Snowboarding, etc. I position the tights correctly on my knee and then I hike my ski sock over the bottom end of the 3/4 tight. This keeps the tight in place and prevents bunching. The 3/4 design also helps keep bulk out of your ski boots. Good luck.
