Reviews
These are super comfortable
"I really like these tights because they are low rise. This means they sit on your waist properly as a guy. They don’t ride down like most unisex tights. The wide elastic band make them even more comfortable and secure. The only con is they don’t have a back zipper for a small phone or music player. But with the side pocket it’s not enough to take off stars. Nice tights."

Hot shorts
"These get me pumped to run quickly and even in hot temps. Like the fit and feel and hope to try em out racing!"
— Hunter W. (5/5)
Great low rise
"Finally some lower rise running tights that don't fit awkwardly and tightly across your midsection. Soft material and moves great. My only complaint is they should have a 7" option."
— Jonathan D. (5/5)
Coolest Design Ever!
"I have many speedsters, but you've got to add this one to your set. They have the coolest, design and graphics ever. The print and colors are awesome. And they live up to this speedsters reputation too. You've got to add this one to your collection as well. What more can I say? I highly recommend."

Q&A
- I’m in between sizes (small and medium) when trying the speedsters at a local running store. The small waist seem fine but quad a bit tighter while the medium waist is more room but quad is comfortable. What would recommend in sizing for speedsters x? I have the trail shorts in a M size for reference.
- Speedsters and Speedsters X have the same sizing though the Speedsters X don't have the back pocket. We typically suggest that customers buy the same size across styles but you'll have to decide which was more comfortable for you.
- Does the side pockets fit a phone?
- Yes, the side stash pockets will fit most phones. If you are looking for a back zipper pocket, that is only on the original Speedsters (not Speedsters X).
- What type of underwear are you supposed to use under these?
- That's entirely up to you. Some would pair them with EZ Undies and others might go commando. Choose whatever is most comfortable for you.
