Would anybody recommend these for running? Really tempted to jump in on this one .

Braxton@Braxton - not sure if you already joined this drop, and therefore my input is too late, but I use these and similar weight baselayers for running. I wear these under my regular running shorts in temps below 55' F. They're thin enough that I don't overheat but provide enough warmth to keep my knees functioning well. Synthetic tends to last longer, but these, being made of wool, do a better job at regulated temperature naturally.

PatCThanks for the information. I live in Minneapolis so running at temps below 55° is pretty common. I think you are right about the synthetic versus wool in terms of longevity though. I'll have to think about this one. It's a great deal!

Braxton@Braxton - sorry, I could have clarified that a bit more. While I start wearing leggings under my running shorts for temp under 55 degrees, I'll wear this weight (150gsm) leggings for temps from 15-55 degrees. I'll add wind shell or rain shell pants when necessary, but shorts are usually sufficient. I spend a good part of most winters in Wisconsin and know this works from experience, so it would probably be a good fit for your needs too.
