Fabric Quality

Pros:

  • "Love the camo print and how thick the fabric is."
  • "Good, thick material and very stretchy."
  • "They’re 100% squat proof (can’t see my bright pink panties through them during a squat), and I jumped around in them lol and they mostly stayed up."
  • "The quality of the material is great - thick, supportive, with a nice level of compression on the legs."
  • "These are the softest, smoothest, most squat-proof leggings I have ever owned."
  • "The material is great, thick without being restricting."
  • "These leggings are made with great quality and pretty good compression."

Cons:

  • "I hate them, what a waste of money, yucky fabric, like polyester!"
  • "The fabric is not very comfortable or flattering."
  • "I wanted to love these, and gave them a 3 workout test. The fabric is just all wrong."
  • "So the feeling of these has a harder thicker feel but it doesn’t keep the cold out at all."
  • "I was really excited for these but after one wash the fabric is already pilling and even worse after two washes!"
  • "Material is cheap and thin."
  • "The fabric started to tear and there was pilling (little balls of lint) in between both the crotch area and on the outer sides of the leggings."

Fit and Comfort

Pros:

  • "I would repurchase these easily. The fit is fantastic."
  • "I got a large and it fits me well."
  • "These fit true to size."
  • "Wore these for two long-haul flights. One for 12 hours and one for 15 hours! They hold shape."
  • "They fit perfectly, were so incredibly soft and thick, came up nice and high on my waist (over my belly button) and I’m 5’7”."
  • "They are a snug fit and feel great!"
  • "These fit as expected. Love the pockets."

Cons:

  • "There is an elastic band at the top that digs into the stomach."
  • "There is a one inch elastic band at the very top of the waist band that can’t be seen from the picture. This band is way tighter than the rest of the waist and dug into me."
  • "The very bottom ankle portion isn't tight to my ankle which is the only (very minimal) con to these."
  • "I first ordered these in a size medium, my normal size. But they were pretty tight and fit more like a small."
  • "The leggings were loose throughout the thigh/area."
  • "These are see through."
  • "THESE ARE SO THIN. every time I move/they are touched, THESE LEGGINGS RIP."

Design and Features

Pros:

  • "It comes with a 'cellphone' pocket on the waste that would only fit a tiny model."
  • "Nice & thick, comfortable and fit well."
  • "The best part is that the waistband is snug enough that it stays up without being too tight on the legs."
  • "The pocket is perfect for an iPhone 14 with a case on it."
  • "Just received them and put them on immediately. Fit is true to size, material is comfortable and soft."
  • "No sagging in the crotch area and never had to pull them up to adjust during my workout."
  • "The pockets are the perfect size in my opinion."

Cons:

  • "But good lord the amount of lint and fuzz that gets stuck on these leggings is annoying."
  • "I do not like the half inch elastic band at the top of the waist band. It is uncomfortable and does not provide any compression throughout the rest of the tummy panel."
  • "These pants have a 1 inch elastic band that only goes around the top of the waist instead of it being a solid elastic piece around the tummy that is slimming."
  • "The one inch elastic strip that goes around the top cuts in a lot and causes some discomfort and unnecessary spillage."
  • "The way the pockets and the stitching were enhanced my hips. Not flattering at all."
  • "The waist has an extra band on the inside that does help it stay put but is a bit constrictive for my waist size."
  • "Was really disappointed to get these and be able to see through them with even the slightest stretch."

Durability and Maintenance

Pros:

  • "I spend most of my time in a freezing ice rink and the fleece leggings were a miracle this season."
  • "The high waist design provides excellent tummy control and support, making them perfect for yoga sessions, running, or any other physical activity."
  • "We have washed them many times and still they are in great condition and they have not lost their support."
  • "The material is so nice so much more breathable than typical leggings."
  • "They wash & wear well. I recommend hanging to dry (which isn't too long) but I do dry a few pair and they do fine."
  • "These yoga pants are comfy and tummy controlling."
  • "I’ve worn them all day (getting kids to/from activities, running errands, practicing routines to teach a dance fitness class) and I haven’t had to adjust them at all - I’m so impressed!"

Cons:

  • "They are SO thin. Absolutely no way to wear these out in public unless I wanted to go commando."
  • "They are absolutely see through. They did not pass the squat test at all!!!!"
  • "Love the camo print and how thick the fabric is, but after one wash and line dry, the fabric started to fade and ball up."
  • "Disappointed because I looked up non see through leggings and these were recommended but they are completely see through you can see my whole behind."
  • "The camo design faded quickly, threads and seams were coming loose."
  • "I have just had them 3 months and the material on my inner thighs is balling up horribly."
  • "Bought these leggings very recently and they’re literally falling apart at the seams."
