Mountain Equipment says
A Soft Shell tight for hiking and fast-moving mountain sports in cool conditions. With full stretch and the perfect balance of warmth and rapid moisture transfer the Sonica Tight flies over exposed ridges on cooler days and keeps you out training in the valley when there’s snow on the ground. Two discreet pockets keep essentials secure and a wide waistband gives all day comfort.
Our Verdict
Mountain Equipment's Womens Sonica Tights are one of the most durable and protective pair of tights out there. The Exolite 280 soft shell fabric provides a good amount of stretch and comfort without sacrificing durability. The fabric is lightweight, breathable and comfortable enough for a wide range of mountain activities. These tights are ideal for hiking as they allow freedom of movement and provide some protection from the elements.
The simple, stripped back design allows the weight to stay low without impacting the performance. They have a wide, comfortable waist band and two pockets to keep a few small essentials. They are really comfortable and provide more warmth and protection compared to many other thin sports tights so they are perfect for getting into the hills and mountains.
