These are leggings are legit. I always have trouble finding leggings in extended sizes that 1) are high rise enough, 2) are thick enough to wear with the kind of confidence that allows you to bend over in public, 3) fitted well throughout the leg without a weird flare out at the ankles. I feel held ...

Massive Pilling

These pants made me sad. On the one hand they are buttery soft and oh so comfortable. Oh the other hand after wearing them once to yoga, they pilled A LOT! You would have thought I had worn them every day for months! Is there anything that can be done to fix this?

New Ones are Terrible

Not to be dramatic but you guys are legit ruining my life. As a very long time elation 7/8 wearer, I can't even tell you how many pairs I've owned over the years, I want to tell you how much the new ones absolutely suck. First of all my old size smalls fit perfectly still, while the new ones I can't even squeeze over my hips. The size mediums are way too loose everywhere except the hips. I have tried multiple pairs to be sure. Besides that the size small and medium black leggings are both two inches shorter than the other colors?! Get it together Athleta!!! These were the best leggings on the market for years and the only ones that fit my body perfectly and now I can't even find a pair to wear not to mention the time and energy wasted on ordering and returning different sizes trying to find a pair.

I love the length on these. The fit is nice and snug without being too snug. Won't fall down as you wear them throughout the day. Athleta leggings are the best quality. I have multiple colors in this style. Great for workouts or for going out. Throw on a pair of boots and a loose fitting top and you're ready for going out.

I absolutely love the Athleta Elation leggings. The fabric is incredibly soft and smooth—truly a second-skin feel—while still offering enough support to feel secure and flattering. The ultra-high-rise waistband stays perfectly in place without digging in or rolling down, which makes them ideal for yoga, Pilates, errands, or all-day wear. They're breathable, lightweight, and move beautifully with your body, making them one of the most comfortable leggings I've ever owned. The fit is true to size, the quality feels premium, and they hold up well wash after wash. These are the kind of leggings you reach for again and again because they're just that good. Highly recommend if you want comfort, versatility, and a polished look all in one pair.

The #1 thing I look for in a pair of leggings is if they stay in place. These do not budge and they fit like a glove!

Comments about Elation Ultra High Rise 7/8 Legging

I love elations and I love this colour! I buy the tall bc I don't like the shorter length, but they have fun colours in the 7/8 length.

The best leggings!!

These are truly the best leggings I have ever found. I do CrossFit and run and they hold up amazing. They never roll down my stomach and never ride down. These leggings are nice and thick and I never have to worry if they pass the squat test. I do usually size down for these which really helps them stay in place.

So buttery soft and amazing quality! I'm a personal trainer and am always wearing leggings. This was my first time trying Athleta leggings and I will definitely be purchasing another pair in the future!

Comfiest Leggings!!

The fabric of this legging is fantastic: not too thick not too thin! It holds everything and place without leaving marks! I have gotten this model in so many colors! I have even mixed it with bikini tops from Athleta that match the pant color! I do recommend if you're tall to get the full length, otherwise it will look almost like a long capri pant. Can't wait for Athleta to release more colors to get it!
