Best half tights in the world
"I've never experienced anything like these half tights. I get sad when I wear them because I know that I won't be able to wear them the next day. That just means I'm gonna have to buy more of these. Best quality half tights available"

My daughters were right about “Wolaco’s. ”
"My daughters, both avid runners, talked about their “Wolaco’s” so much that I decided to try a pair. I was skeptical about the price and had never worn half tights before. After wearing them on several long runs, from 8 to 19 miles, I’m a big fan. I’m running the Marine Corps Marathon next month and plan to buy another pair with a longer inseam. I love my Wolaco’s!"

Enjoying
"I’ve really been enjoying my WOLACO running shorts\. I’ve worn them on several long training runs, and they’ve stayed comfortable and supportive the whole time\. They fit securely without feeling too tight, and the pockets hold my phone and other essentials without any annoying bouncing. The only small issue is that the phone holder is too tight for my iPhone 18 Max. As the miles add up during marathon training, comfort makes a big difference, and these shorts have been great. They’re lightweight, breathable, and easy to wear for longer runs\. They’ve quickly become one of my favorite pieces of running gear. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone training for a half marathon, marathon, or simply logging a lot of miles\."

Feel so good wearing these… but…
"I followed the sizing chart and followed the advice to size up if in-between sizes. I wish I sized down rather than up. Because as a cyclist I like my tights go be a little more snug than roomy. I don’t know if this what they mean by “half” tight, but it is looser than I’d like. I especially noticed the sizing when I loaded out the pockets and it started to sag. It sagged so much it almost went below my hips when running. So sadly I want to give it a five because I feel amazing in them and the quality is worth the price, but the advice of going size up was misleading. And with consistent training I will outgrow these sooner than I’d like. Making the price tag make me think twice next time I order another. This was definitely the solution though for defeating the pesky short rise with other shorts when running!"

The Search is Over
"After 30+ years of trail running I am officially done looking for that perfect pair of running shorts. I have finally found the best running shorts that I have ever worn!! The fit, the material and the storage is far superior to anything else on the market. Looking forward to running in my WOLACO half tights for years to come"

Perfect Marathon Tight
"Happy Customer! The Wolaco Distance Half Tight checks all the boxes. Able to store 5 gels, my phone, even a light for the tunnel section of my Marathon. Love the fit! I wore the 8" for the race. No hot spots, no chaffing. The half tights left plenty to the imagination and kept everything PG. Highly Recommend!"

nice design
"well constructed and designed with pockets and shirt loop… material could breath a little better and the interior is a little on the coarse side. . I would recommend a slightly smoother interior especially in the crotch…."

t-shirt strap and phone on same side.
"Just finished my first run in the 10". Overall good fit and finish. Hoping they last. Biggest drawback is the shirt strap is on the same side as the phone pocket. It's too much weight on one side, especially if the shirt has perspiration on it. I had to cinch the drawstring much tighter than I would like, or is comfortable. The phone pocket is too narrow to fit my iphone16 Pro Max with a cover. Yes, I can take the cover off but I'd rather not. It's why I have a cover. I'm 6'5" so the larger phone is more comfortable to use. Same reason I bought the 10" inseam shorts. I'm sure it's more complicated than this, but maybe just a larger pocket on the longer shorts (8" and/or 10"), which taller people might gravitate to. Separate request: The one thing I'd like to see is the use of natural material, like wool or rayon. It's the one reason I hesitated to buy them. If I find a natural version, I'll buy them first. Thanks,"
