New Balance Men's Impact Run Heat Tight

I also own last year’s Impact Heat Tight and this year’s version is greatly improved on the fit and usability of pockets. The material allows for a true to size fit, especially on the calf zips. The previous version was more difficult to zip and the improvement is welcome. The hip pockets are large enough to securely hold an iPhone 11 while retaining an Otterbox Defender case and not impeding muscle contraction.

I have a pair of last year's NB Impact Heat Tight to compare to, and this year's iteration has more (and more usable) storage, with an improved fit than the previous. In this year's model, I no longer need to place extra effort to cinch up the calf zips, and the warmth remains the same despite the softer and more pliable material. I would say this version fits very "true to size", with the proper supportive "tight" feel throughout. The hip pocket easily contains and holds an iPhone 11 within an Otterbox Defender case, without impeding my quad contraction while on a run. Highly recommend for winter running.

These tights are great for the chilliest of conditions. Pair these with polyester long johns, such as Uniqlo Heatteach, and you'll be good to go in pretty much any temperature.

These fit snug. I typically wear a small in New Balance shorts and bought a small originally. I couldn't get them on. I exchanged for a medium and they're pretty good. I have a little room in the waist but you can cinch them up with the drawstring pretty easily.

Pockets are handy for a phone and whatever small items you need to carry.
