I wear Russel ahtletic pants from Walmart for my commutes. They're lightweight Lycra-type material with zippered pockets. The coldest weather I encounter is low 30s Fahrenheit and with some long johns I'm fine.
For other recreational cycling, I haven't had "tights" in years. I wear what I call "not-so-tights", currently some Nike running pants that I bought nearly 10 years ago. They're snug but not form-fitting and also have zippered pockets.
