How thick are these? If anyone here happens to own a pair of the nike procombat hyperwarm lite tights, how do these compare in terms of thickness?

These are lighter than the Nike ProCombat but the heat-retention qualities are just as good. The compression is also excellent.

Super light weight - thin fabric but good sturdy fabric. This is excellent comprsssion gear.

I can't knowledgeably answer this since I'm taller than you and haven't worn a small since, well, ever. If you think you're going to lose a few pounds, I might go with the xs. These are compression tights, so they are supposed to compress. There is nothing more annoying than tights that want to fall down while you're running.........

Compared to a white crew sock, they are a good bit thicker. COmpared to a boot sock, not so much. They do NOT come all the way to your knee... they are about the height of a crew sock... about mid calf. My husband said that they are keeping his feet very warm. WE had to invest in all this at one time which was a substantial amount for "underwear" but it's been worth every single penny. Yes, you'd be toasty on a motorcycle. The good thing about buying Amazon is if you get them and they're too thick, send them back and quickly get a refund. Hope this helps.

They are only slightly thicker than panty hose. Probably not what you are looking for.

I have both, and I prefer the ultra. The regular barely feels like any compression. It's much more comfortable, but it doesn't make a big difference for me. I should mention I use them primarily because I have low blood pressure, instead of solely athletic reasons. The Ultra makes a big difference, and the regular maybe makes a slight difference, but really just feels like I'm wearing snug leg warmers. I agree with the first reviewer though, the top band of the ultra does bind.

For me, they kinda go at the waist and i can also pull them higher... I bought a medium and its not snug on me so when I run, they kinda slip down even when i pull them high above my waist. But that could be because I bought a size larger than required. They still don't rub or cut into my skin. Hope that answers your question.

I'm 5'7" with an inseam of 30", these tights hit just above my ankle. I would guess it would depend on where you want them to hit and your inseam length.Love these tights. I play racquetball in them and they never slip or bag.

Don't know exactly but I bought them in the same exact size as my regular tights and they fit perfectly!

Certainly thicker than normal socks. Maybe half again to twice the thickness of normal heavy cotton socks. A bit thicker than Thorlo cotton socks.

They are 1/4 - 1/2 inch thick. They are the greatest invention ever! They are flexible and stay cold a long time!!

According to their size chart it seems like a small or medium. They are very tight which is why I like them. I am 5'3 and weigh 107. I wear XS. If you go to the CWX official site and check running tights their is a size chart. There could be a chart on amazon but not sure. I do not sell for this company, I can only tell you what I wear and let you know I think they are a great product. I have been wearting them for at least 5 years and never went back to Nike running tights again. Just do not wear any body lotion when you have them on.

I wouldn't consider the socks as thin. I use them for volleyball and love them. They do have some cushioning. They work perfectly for volleyball and are currently my favorite socks. I don't, however, know about their use as softball socks.

I'd say it would be about 50% thicker than your average pair of athletic socks, except on the bottom where I'd say it's about double the thickness and maybe even a little more. If you're concerned about shoe fit with these, if the shoe is snug in normal socks, it will be a mite tight. I've never had a problem with hiking boots or athletic shoes such as you might find in Merrell's or Keen's inventories. But I can't wear them with my cowboy boots.

Absolutely! They aren't as thick as basketball socks though. Imagine a white crew sock w/ color and patterns on 'em. That's basically what these are, Lol

They are a bit thick. Probably around 1/8" - 3/16" thick if I had to guess. They are excellent quality. They work great. I play basketball in them and haven't had a calf cramp since! Highly recommend this product

Since Amazon only sent your question and not the review that it is asked about, I'm not sure which product you are asking about. If it is the boots, I believe they were a 9 1/2, if it is the compression socks, they are a little larger, but work quite well. If I have guessed wrong on both accounts, ask again and tell me which product you are referring to. thanks!

These have great compressive abilities, but I did not feel any significant thermal impact when I wore it. It does keep warm, but it was not noticeable enough for me to consider it that type of tight. Have you considered the SKINS S400/200 Women's Thermal Compression Long Tights ?
