I like the comfort of these leggings and I love the side pockets most of all.Like itIt fit a little smaller than I would have like but I know that is my fault for getting a size that I can’t try on. Other than that it does fit and looks good and love how it feels.These are comfy and flattering but NOT high waisted. They are also a bit short in length for my height. I have a hard time buying pants, outside of jeans, that are long enough as I have long legs. These hit well above my ankle and I would prefer them a tad longer. They’ll work for my needs. I do like the fit otherwise and they don’t ride down with continual movement. They stayed in place well. They are also not see through…at least the camouflage ones I purchased are not. The fabric is smooth and isn’t typical knit leggings so no worries about pilling or snags.Let me preface this with I am INSANELY picky with my leggings. I am 31yrs old, 5’6 128lbs workout 5-6days a week (generally lifting and HIIT) and have had 3 children. I have been on the hunt for legging to replace my Fabletics leggings (all time favorite leggings) These did not quite hit the mark.Pros:The fabric is nice, not see through, def squat proof and have really nice stretch to them and stay in place through rigorous exercise. Fabric is that non cottony material that hair and such won’t stick to so for let owners that’s a plus (I personally prefer a more cottony material), AND they do have nice compression all over.Cons:Honestly my only con, and this is completely personal preference, the waistband. It’s high waisted and goes past my belly button which is great, but there is a seam at the top of the waist band that is constricting. After having 3 kids and my skin is starting to not be as “elastic” as it once was, no amount of ab work will eliminate some extra skin and squish. I’m completely fine with that, my body is a gift and wasn’t made to be rock hard as it ages, and the good Lord grew 3 healthy babies with that skins and belly HOWEVER I obviously want my clothing to be as comfortable and flattering as possible. That dang seam cuts in my torso skin giving me a muffin top effect that my beloved Fabletics legging do not give bc they are seamless at the top of the waist band. I am certain this isn’t an issue of wrong since bc they fit beautifully everywhere else.Overall they’re not bad but the seam on the waist band made these a deal breaker for me.I have a great many pairs of high/low/at waist yoga/workout leggings and I just have to say, these leggings are definitely rated at the top along with my IUGA leggings and very few others. I love the feel, design, and shape of these leggings. They fit very well, do not fold over at the waist or slip down. They are comfortable, warm, made of great quality material, and are NOT sheer or see-through. I purchased them in the black leopard and matte black design to wear not only for working out but also as date night, party, event, everyday leggings and they do not disappoint. I have so many other pairs of legging which do not live up to the mark or description but these fit the bill perfectly and I love that they come in textured styles which is a great plus! I plan to buy more just as soon as I get rid of some of my lesser quality ones to make room for these. ;) I would definitely suggest you purchase a pair to try, you won't regret it and will fall in love with them just as I did. For reference, I'm a curvy 5'6" 200lbs (46" hips) ordered size XL and they fit great!I'm normally a size large. I bought both medium and large since I didn't know which would fit better. I honestly like both. I could wear the mediums and not feel suffocated. They don't feel tight or restrictive. The large only feel slight bigger but not saggy or anything. Though, when I wear the large I notice the ankles are a bit wide.The pockets are great. I think perhaps the side leg pockets could be a tad bit tighter, but if they were I wonder if that would make the leggings uncomfortable. So, I won't really complain about that. Things fit in the pockets and they don't fall out, so all good.Also, I bought these months ago and have worn them and washed them many times. I haven't noticed any lint, shrinkage, fading, or damage. I know most clothes don't last forever in perfect condition, but these have done well so far. If I need to replace them in a year, I feel like I will have done good.I have two pairs of these leggings. The first pair was the long marbled leggings. The fit is perfect. I was surprised that they were long enough for me (I’m 5’10” and purchased XL). I love the side pockets, they’re perfect for my phone. Only complaint: when I purchased the black camo they are a different fabric and definitely not as long. I actually like the fabric on the camo pair better but they’re about 4” shorter than the marbled pair I purchased.These yoga pants exceeded my expectations! The fit is as expected and the higher waist and cropped style is flattering.
