I just received these, so this review is not based on actual use, but I thought I'd provide some input with regards to SIZING.
I'm 6'2" and at 220lbs, ...roughly 20lbs overweight (when I was competing in 400m in college I had significantly bigger thighs but weighed in at 200lbs being otherwise quite skinny). Current jeans that fit me (Levi's) have size waist 36", inseam 33" (when I can get it, or I wear 34") 'Solid' build in the legs but not huge...
Calf 45cm or 17.7 inches, thigh 61cm (24 inches)
The size XL fits well, though quite snug around the lower calves/ankles. I hesitated between L/XL since sizing is all over the place in cycling/running gear, and I wanted something not too roomy as it is my goal to work up to a triathlon next year and in the process shave off those extra pounds... It seems to be that even with 20lbs less, I should not go down to size Large.
Bottomline is that for someone with my physique, XL is the size to go with certainly not smaller! I ordered leg, knee, arm warmers, all in XL and they fit nice and snug, but definitely not too tight.
I hope this helps. The quality looks good. Good luck to y'all.

I have never worn "Man Tights" before however like to run frequently. I'm usually a fair weather runner. Since moving to NYC I decided to get out more in the parks and run during the better part of winter. This was usually 25 50 degree weather. These pants combined with a Sugoi mid zero top (and layering under the top) were perfect. I'm about 5'11" and 185 lbs. The L size fit me perfectly. Sugoi makes great running pants. These pants do not have a bottom zipper, however I found that it is not necessary as the pants are well constructed.

I saw these tights recommended on DC Rainmakers site. He reviews exercise stuff. I really like them. They fit great and have material on the inside at your ankles that keep them in place. They move will with my body when I run. The first time I wore them, I felt they actually helped me run better (maybe in my mind). It was a really cold day and blowing snow and I felt comfortable.
Honest reviews on Sugoi MidZero Tights
I thought I got the wrong tights when I opened the box. They are tagged S2 but the rear looks different than pictured above. There is no zippered pocket in the rear. No zippers up the legs either. The panels aren't like in the photos. HOWEVER, I just got back from trying them out and they are great! Windy ride for 17 miles and these are great at stopping the wind and keeping you warm. Knees felt good when I was finished. 49 degrees outside. I was afraid they would bunch up behind the knee, and they did just a bit, but nothing that was annoying or caused any discomfort. Well worth the money.

These are my first cycling tight and they were awesome (at least) for their first ride in 36 degree Arizona weather. I am 5'11", 185 and a large fits me perfect. They fit and feel very comfortable under my bibs and my legs didn't feel a thing this morning. For a first time winter rider, these tights worked perfectly. Price is very reasonable as well. Recommend.
