Softshell tights that offer good protection in the cooler months without hindering your ability to move freely over any terrain.
Mountain Equipment says
A soft shell tight for hiking and fast-moving mountain sports in cool conditions. With full stretch and the perfect balance of warmth and rapid moisture transfer the Austra Tight is ideal for early starts, and flying over exposed ridges on cooler days. Discreet pockets keep essentials secure and a low profile belt gives all day comfort.
Our Verdict
Made from Mountain Equipment’s very own EXOLITE 280 soft shell fabric, these wind, and water-resistant tights offer protection from the elements as well as being incredibly comfortable to wear.
Perfect for the cooler months, they strike the perfect balance between warmth and the ability to quickly wick away moisture.
They have 4 decent-sized pockets, all of which have zipped fastenings for added security.
They have a fit between leggings and an average softshell trouser, not restrictive at all, with a good degree of stretch so you will not find them constrictive.
