New Acquisition - Distance Pant

In my quest for lightweight pants for spin class, I picked up a pair of new Nightmarket blue Distance Pants on ebay from a girl in Texas for less than half the retail price. The Distance Pants are very similar to the Hills Crops in that have a mesh insert along the side of the the thigh but are made of all Luxtreme (instead of the heavier luon on the backside). They have a little flare at the bottom so they give you a nice silhouette but not so much that you trip yourself up running or on the elliptical. The pants are so lightweight I almost feel exposed when I am wearing them. I'm going to be on the lookout for some Distance Pants in black since the blue luxtreme doesn't quite hide the cottage cheese on the back of my thighs. However, they will be perfect for late evening walks or runs. The Newport store had them but were out of my size. I'm hoping they'll show up on the e-commerce site in April.

Features:
  • Sleek and feminine, this pant makes anyone want to start running!
  • Made from Luxtreme fabric with inherent quick wicking properties
  • Power luxtreme on the bum keeps you feeling firm, less bouncy, and strong
  • Mesh panel for ventilation
  • Lengthened gusset to prevent inner thigh chafing
  • Inner pockets for $ & keys
  • Chafe resistant - flat seamed
