Excellent soft and stretchy fabric very comfortable and warm
We found the seat pad too small, causing some chafing

Initial impression of these Polaris tights is excellent. The soft thermal fabric employed throughout is warm and breathable, while the broad waistband makes light work of holding them in place firmly but comfortably. The legs are, if anything, generously long and are finished with some excellent foot stirrups that keep them in place nicely.  

It is only on the bike we get a few negative comments. Some testers report back with some some chafing from the pad. The complaints seem to centre around it being a little on the narrow side, with some pretty heavy stitching around the edges that cause problems after only an hour or so in the saddle.

This can be a personal fit issue however, and otherwise they are excellent, so we would recommend trying before you buy where possible.
