I really hope these tights are warm for frigid temps! My dog runner pants are great for walking, but for running they are a bit bulky and have no compression. I tried an athleta pair (power lift) and they were warm/compressive but pilled after one wear across the thighs, so I returned them. Fingers crossed these do the trick for cold (20F and below) temperatures!
The black and white material in the toasty earwarmers looks like the merino wool used in last years yogi infinity scarf! Yeah! I hope I can get something to match my scarf!
It's a safe assumption the Flurry Fighter Tights will not be warm enough for "frigid temps". They might do for 20F but that's not frigid, imo. (It does depend on the wind too, I'll give you that.)
LLL does not know how to make a running tight that serves 14F (-10C) or colder. They don't even do that well for anything that goes below 32F (0C). I've followed the brand for years and they've never done it and do not seem interested. I buy my serious winter running tights elsewhere and will continue to do so.
The Flurry Fighter Tight is also aesthetically very ugly so I'm glad there is no draw for me. The jacket has potential but I don't really need it and will not be paying $198 for it. If I like it enough I will wait.
I think $48 for mittens is a bit steep. Aritzia has cute knit ones every season, with polar fleece inside (not nappy like Sherpa though) for about $12-20.
Agree with every word Anon 6:53 said. I gave up expecting LLL to make true winter running tights quite some time ago; I get mine elsewhere. About the coldest I can wear LLL running tights in is 20-25F, depending on wind. It gets a LOT colder than that where I live. Flurry Fighter tights will be an easy pass.
J in TO - I agree, the price of the mittens, ear warmer, and neck warmer is on the steep side! Not too long ago I wouldn't have hesitated to buy something I like from Lululemon without any hesitation in regards to price, but this is getting ridiculous! I still love Lulu but I'm putting a lot more thought into what I want and/or need and end up choosing to buy these days. I don't have that obsessed 'gotta have' feeling I used to have with Lulu and it feels really good to let that go!
Hi Everyone, Anyone know where I can find or buy a pair of Totally Toasty Mittens, colour White and Black? I want to get them as a present for my girlfriend and can't seem to find them anywhere

Has anyone tried the Skinny Groove Pant *Full-On Luon (Brushed)? Are they TTS? TIA :)

I don't think lulu specializes in extreme cold temperatures. I think the most the tights I have can handle is about 26F with a light breeze.
