I have underarmor tights that I love. Also have not as warm new balance and puma tights that I layer under other pants when its really cold (like -6 with wind chill at the robert moses winter series race last earlier this year!)

Personally I love compression gear. I had the shorts that went just above the knee last year and they were great. I have the full length tights now and they're amazing. My legs feel great after a run and they're helping with my shin issue.

Re: favorite cold weather running pants?

I have a question on the compression tights/shorts.... What do they do that they make them better than regular running tights?

I found this:

Women and men's compression tights are made from a thin, stretchy material that is very light and doesn't restrict movement. These leggings are designed to fit snugly around the body for maximum comfort. The benefits of compression leggings and other clothing include:
•Maintaining a perfect temperature for the body. This is especially important for outside activity, since cold air can retract the muscles. When muscles are retracted, they are more vulnerable to injury
•Controls moisture and sweat from the body
•Aids muscle motion for bikers.
•Helps runners achieve longer strides
•Help athlete keep a proper posture
•Makes muscles more powerful and reduces muscle vibration
•Helps with a healthy blood circulation throughout the body
•Helps to prevent muscle fatigue and cramping
•Discourages bacteria growth and prevents body odor

I definitely feel a huge difference with them!
