Great for Climbing

I purchased these for a climb up Mt. Shasta in northern California. I was looking for something with a better fit and better moisture-wicking capability than regular long underwear. The CW-X Tights fit the bill. Conditions changed from freezing winds in the morning to almost balmy temperatures in the afternoon. I wore the tights underneath wind pants and cold or warm outside, my legs always felt comfortable--and dry. Whether or not the muscle and joint support helps endurance... after the 14-mile, 7,000+ ft ascent/descent, I drove home about 4 hours away. I'm not in super shape, over 50, and starting to have knee issues so, yes, I think the tights provided extra support.
