If you're talking about cycling tights: nothing
If you're talking about the black tights that Catholic schoolgirls wear: Vaseline

I got them yesterday and they made my commute very nice. Only weird thing is the belt loops. What do you use them for? or did you cut them off?

For my 17F/-8C commute yesterday, I wore bib shorts w/chamois with leg warmers as a base layer with Illuminite windpants over that. My commute isn't that long - 8-9 miles - and I was plenty warm. YMMV.
