I've been disappointed in several of my Athleta purchases lately, but the Rainier tights consistently deliver. I'm 5'6"/130lbs, the small fits perfectly.

Comments about Rainier High Rise Legging

I ordered "TALL" leggings and they arrived ++short. The material is also thinner than previous years. "TALL" leggings may fit average height women. The ".flocking" was also thin

Love these leggings. I wear them all winter both for working out and for everyday life

I love the lined fabric. Great for running in cold weather!

Keeps me warm, stays in place. Great pants!

If ur a girly looking for compression and discrete fabric, these are for you. Hides ripples in your skin and gives you a little lift. I have 4 pairs. Love the side pockets as well.

I have 8 pairs of Rainier leggings purchased over the course of 3 seasons. All of them have fit a little large in the calves, but fit my thighs and waist perfectly. The fleece is a light layer, but you can definitely see and feel it. This season, I bought the borealis, elm and black. The borealis and elm are exactly the same as previous years. The black pair, however, has no fleece inside. They seem slightly brushed, but not fuzzy like the borealis and elm. It is so weird. No fleece and the fit is definitely different. They are more a 7/8 length instead of full length and they fit my calves well. I checked to see if they accidentally sent a petite pair. Nope, the black pair is a regular length small just like my other 8 pairs. I even tried all 8 of my pairs to compare to the black. The black is definitely not Rainier even though it is cut and styled like the rainier. Since I picked them up on sale, I will keep them, but the black are not worth full price if you are looking for a fleece lined legging.

These stay up, very tight. Bought according to size guide and I am not incredibly slim. The pocket is small, doesn't fit a mobile phone. Not very warm in windy cold weather, actually make you feel colder because they are so tight, it's like wearing nylons in cold windy weather.

So these leggings are great - as everything from Athleta is. I think the one thing I immediately noticed is that the fit is excellent and that the zippers on them are really cute, something I wondered about before purchasing, so that's a HUGE win. The only reason I gave them a 4 instead of a 5 is that I had hoped they would be a thicker fabric - similar to a different pair I purchased recently from Athleta - but they aren't- so they don't provide a lot of warmth for winter wear. Having said all that, as long as you don't expect to be in super cold weather, they are awesome - and very flattering.

These are super comfortable and very flattering. Great color and amazing fit. They really exceeded my expectations and I would buy them again with a different color background. The fabric is FANTASTIC!
