Updated deep stretch waistband aid support, whilst the new PATCH pocket construction holds carry in place without impacting comfort.
Our Verdict
At 230g (UK12), the Montane Women’s Ineo Lite Tights are a lighter, softer take on the standard Ineo, making them better suited to warm or mild conditions. The standout for me is the next-to-skin comfort, with the MALA Luxe fabric providing a smooth, stretchy feel that moves easily on steep steps, during faster walks, and in general trail use. The deep waistband gives a secure fit without needing a bulky belt, while the internal drawcord adds a bit of extra adjustment.
I like the pocket layout, with an open thigh pocket for a phone and concealed waistband pockets for smaller essentials. They are not as protective as the standard Ineo in wind, damp or rough terrain, but they make a lot of sense for walkers who like leggings and want a lighter option for summer hiking, travel and fast-moving trail days.
