W's Pace Trail Short Tights
Description
What makes this product special?
Lightweight and packable short women's trail running tights that let you move freely, with multiple pockets for storage. A fully circular product made from 100% recycled polyester. The materials can be recycled and used again and again.
How does the product work?
When different materials are mixed in the same fabric, it is difficult to reuse the valuable materials and give them a second life in a new product. Pace Trail Tights are made from Circle Stretch Knit, a material made from 100% recycled polyester, without any fabric blends. This is groundbreaking, because a pair of stretchy and soft tights without elastane makes them completely circular in design. The stretch in this monomaterial allows you to move freely. They have several pockets for storage so you can take what you need with you.
When should I use them?
These lightweight, short women's tights are made primarily for trail running in the spring, summer and fall, but they're also perfect for wearing to the gym, on a hike, or to your yoga practice. Pace Trail Tights has features that will take you far.
Once you wear them out, they can be recycled into new ones tights again. And again. And again.

Materials and technology
After several years of development, we can proudly present a fully circular fabric for running tights. The advantage of pure polyester is that it dries much faster, is better for the layer-on-layer principle and has excellent moisture transport properties. It is also fully recyclable, which means that when traditional running tights become waste at the end of their life cycle, garments made with Circle Stretch Knit can become new products. It saves resources, reduces emissions and minimizes the total environmental impact. Circle Stretch Knit weighs 180 g/m², which is a familiar weight for running tights.

Care advice
Synthetic clothing
When washing clothes made of synthetic materials, it is especially important to prevent the spread of microfibres in the water by using a laundry bag.
- Air clothes instead of washing if the clothes are not too dirty. You save water, energy and it makes the clothes last longer.
- Feel free to use a laundry bag. It protects your garments and prevents microfibers from leaking out. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe clean and dispose of lint in the bin. Never rinse the laundry bag with water as the fibers can then end up in lakes and oceans.
- Wash at a maximum of 40 degrees.
- Wash with mild environmentally certified detergents and be sure to use the correct dosage.
- Avoid fabric softener. In addition to being bad for the environment, it impairs the garment's performance, especially moisture transport and drying time.
- Tumble dry on low heat.
- Iron on low heat.
sustainability
circular
This product is completely circular, which means it is made from either recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable materials. Most products in today's society are linear, where the earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This does not work in the long run and causes enormous strain on the environment. Instead, we want to close the circle and reuse the materials we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini products are completely worn out, return them to us through our recycling units located in all our own stores and many retailers.
recycled
The label recycled means that this garment contains at least 50% recycled fibers (often more, see product description). The source is either recycled clothing or other sources such as PET bottles. We mainly use recycled polyester, which has many advantages. It reduces both CO2 emissions and water use compared to virgin polyester. One of our suppliers shows that mechanically recycled polyester saves 32% CO2 and uses 94% less water. In addition to the footprint of production, the big difference is that we use "waste" as raw material instead of crude oil.
Recyclable
The label Recyclable means that the fabric in this product is completely recyclable. Instead of becoming waste, the material can be used to manufacture new products. Our goal is to take no material from the earth's crust into our products by 2030. Circular products, made from recycled and recyclable materials, is a big change but we need your help to make the system work. Return your Houdini garments to us when they are completely worn out. We have recycling units in all our own stores and at many retailers.
