Bought these for winter runs and was wondering how they would feel as they have a looser fit compared to other running items I've worn. This turned out to be no problem and he held up very well in the cold. It was longer than expected but it was a positive thing as it helped prevent errant gusts of wind from freezing my upper body! My only comment is that you are more likely to get laces in your face. Anyway, I'm not the type to use laces so I just took them off and now it's all in the sauce. Recommend this product for winter training or even everyday wear.
