You want "track" pants. They are between tights and standard gym pants: tapered and slim through the leg, and tight (only) around the ankles.
Nike makes a few different models - all on their site. For ex: NIKE PHENOM, NIKE THERMA ESSENTIAL, NIKE ESSENTIAL.
I wear the Nike Y20, which is the 2016 model. You can probably still find these on discount. I usually find them at REI.
I concur. The Y20 is also known as the OTC65. The nice thing is the 10% spandex which gives the pants more flex and stretch than the standard 100% polyester kinds. You barely notice they're on. They're my go to's for the past year. I've seen them at Nike outlets for under $50 recently. Google them.

What temp are we talking about? 10 degrees with minimal wind just wear your shorts your legs will heat up fine and no restriction from tights.

10 degrees Fahrenheit is not shorts weather, unless it's a race. If I wore shorts for a regular training run in 10 degree weather my legs would be beet red and numb by the end. Maybe I'm getting old, but shorts in weather like that is insane. And I'm in Canada, so I should be acclimated to stuff like that.
For regular training runs (not races) I generally put the shorts away wear the thin tights at anything below 40 F. The heavy tights come out at around 15 F. Thin tights under the heavy tights when it gets to -5 F and below. Add long johns to the equation when it gets below -20 F.
Must be crazy, doesn't bother me much unless there is piercing wind.
Lol only an idiot wears shorts running at 10f. You can probably get by all the way to 0 but whats the point? Proper apparel is more comfortable and better for performance anyways. Ego is literally the only reason people do that kind of stuff. Congratulations, you've entered the realm of 14 year olds who are too cool to zip up their jacket and bald guys at the ski hill who ride with shades and no hat on.
There is no alternativ to tights in cold weather.
