Arc'teryx Norvan Tight Men

The Norvan Tight is your go-fast, mountain-ready running bottom—superlight, stretchy, and designed to carry what matters without getting in your way.

Built from a high-stretch, quick-dry poly/spandex blend, these tights compress just enough to stay snug without restricting movement. Flatlock seams reduce chafe; a gusseted crotch helps with stride freedom; and there are clean, minimal pockets—usually one rear zip stash—that don’t bounce. Articulated knees and a slightly tapered cuff finish the profile so you don’t catch on branches or cram up under shells.

They’re made for uphill sprints, long trail runs, adventure days where weight and pack-bulk matter, and anyone who moves fast and hates fuss. If you push altitude, fight wind chill, or need lightweight protection over long descents, these tights keep you covered (literally) without overheating.

If you’re mostly a casual jogger, use thick base layers, or need more coverage and durability through brush/rocks, you might prefer something heavier. But for trail racers, fastpackers, and those who treat every run like gear-optimization, the Norvan Tight nails the sweet spot.
