I've been wearing PI Gavia Plus tights for cold weather to about 30 degrees. Today it was 13F when I left the house, and I was wearing some wool socks, microfleece long johns, knee warmers, then the Gavia Plus tights. Also had 2 mid-weight smartwool tops under my winter jersey. Lotsa layers to don, but I wasn't cold.
