Women's running tights

Janji Groundwork Tight

From its smooth, seamless design to its classic sleek style, Janji's Groundwork 7/8 Tight offers the perfect balance of comfort and support on every run. Made from Janji's Groundwork Knit fabric, these tights provide light compression without compromising breathability and mobility. There is plenty of storage to be had with two bounce-free pockets roomy enough to stash your phone with its case (a must-have!), an internal key waistband pocket, a rear pocket for nutrition, and even a pass-thru for shedding layers when your run heats up. The thoughtful design extends to the reflective logos in the front and back and an infinity drawcord for a secure, customised fit. We love the clean-cut finish and easy on/off wearable material. And the cherry on top is that the Groundwork Tights are bluesign certified free of any harmful chemicals in their durable construction. With its ergonomic, flattering fit, chafe-free design, and multiple storage options, the Janji Groundwork 7/8 will be your favourite pair of running tights to slip into, whether on the road or the trail.
