What are the Dragon Trail Tights?
The Dragon Trail Tights are a lightweight, stretchy, hard-wearing pair of active tights. Designed with a feature set specifically for fast-paced mountain adventures, the Dragon Tights offer good pocket and storage options, combined with all the technical features and fabrics needed to move comfortably over a variety of different terrains.
What are the Dragon Long Trail Tights Made from?
The Dragon Trail Tights have been made using Carvico with Econyl regenerated nylon, which is a tough, stretchy fabric that is more friendly to the environment. Designed to be worn as a second skin, the fabric offers high elasticity for full range of movement and is also abrasion resistant, so you know you’ll be protected even on technical terrain. This is complemented by Apex-Dry Mesh panels behind the knees, allowing for extra ventilation so you can dump excess heat easily.
What are the features?
Starting from the top, the tights have a stretch waistband with an internal waist drawcord. All of the seams are low profile and flatlocked to keep so you won’t chafe and you’ll be comfortable all day. A rear YKK zipped pocket is the ideal place to safely stash your keys, whilst a pair of rear gel pockets provide you with a bit of extra snack storage. The YKK ankle zips and a silicone hem grip keep the tights from riding up and make it easier to kick off your tights at the end of a long soggy run.
Where does this fit in the layering system?
The Dragon Trail Tights are designed to be worn next to skin as your primary layer, keeping you light and efficient for moving through the mountains. They can be combined with a lightweight short over the top, otherwise, they are primarily aimed at being a standalone layer. In practice we have also found that the Dragon make an exceptionally comfortable layer underneath shell trousers.
