Long underwear bottoms can get really stinky and wet during ski days and winter backpacking trips. That's why The North Face made the Women's XTC Midweight Tights with a carbonized bamboo polyester fabric. This Bamboo Charcoal technology lets the XTC Midweight Tights handle 50% more moisture than standard polyester can, and the fabric breaks down odor-causing molecules. This means you can pull on the XTC Midweight long underwear bottoms and sweat all day without getting clammy legs or smelling like you haven't showered in a week. Even if you really haven't.

Midweight Performance

Rating:*****

These are great mid-weight performance long underwear. I am 5'8 and a women's medium and these fit true to size. They are cut to be roomier in the thigh, and tighter in the calf area. Again from TNF is a tight that barely feels like it's there (light & durable) but provides great warmth and excellent movement. I wear these under gortex shell pants down to about 5-10 degrees and they work great. The waist band is great- thin and smooth band that is not constricting but does the job in hugging your contours. The product is very odor resistant and can withstand the use of a couple days wear in a row. Definitely recommend these as a good all around base layer.

Cozy and functional

Rating:****

The weather has finally turned frosty and I am very happy with my TNF long undies. They are silky and warm. True to size, easy to layer and allow me to play outdoors. Would recommend to anyone looking for a midweight first layer gear.

Have it handy; it's worth it!

Rating:*****
The garment fits well and is very comfortable. Feels clean and light and it does what it's meant to do: regulates temperature well and keeps one dry. Great to have around even while waiting for the first chance to use it!

"Fantastic Fit!"

Rating:****
Works for athletes and fashionistas alike! I use them often under my North Face Freedom pants during ski season, and during marathon season during summer. The fabric is breathable and wears well!

"They make my butt look good."

Rating:****
The size of these tights run a little big. Other than being a little big they keep me warm under my snow pants and look great.
Natalie at Moosejaw on 05/18/2008

Baggy and overpriced

Rating:**
