Once the weather really turns foul, you’ll want to suit up with some warm thermal tights to ensure your leg muscles don’t suffer. The POC Essential Road Thermal Tights are a great option, especially if you prefer wearing pad-less tights over your summer bibs shorts. Thanks to the soft brushed interior combined with the windproof panels and water resistant materials, these Thermal Tights are prepared for seriously unpleasant weather conditions. They have also been ergonomically shaped, particularly at the knees, to make certain that when you are in the riding position you won’t feel that unpleasant tugging and kneecap pressure that some less well-thought-out- tights can cause. Flat lock seams help prevent a road map of seam indentations from forming on your skin after a multi-hour ride. The legs are kept in place with the 4.5cm elastic ankle hem. The upper section is made from a breathable mesh connected to nicely stretchable bib suspenders, and a rear pocket in the mesh allows you to stash some little essential like an emergency gel pack. Reflective tabs add to your visibility. If you can’t miss a day on the road no matter the weather, then bib tights like these POC Essential Thermals will be a great way to protect yourself from the cold.
