Love the new color, Shadow Grey

These pants are the first 2.0 version I've bought, in the Shadow Grey. I'm 5'4", 140 lbs. and ordered the medium. Compared to the previous version, these pants are about 1/2-1" wider above the knee and about 1/2 longer as I hold them against my old, straight-leg ones. The look is still slim and a...

The top of the pant has changed.

The top band around the waist and upper hip has changed from the Elation Ultra High Rise tight and also the flair version. It is narrower and ends at an unattractive place on my very slim hips so that it looks like I have a lumps at the bottom of the band. I'm 5' 7" and weigh 123 lbs. so the band ...

Comments about Elation Ultra High Rise Straight Leg Pant

This is a rare Athleta item that I'll be returning. Nice fit, but I'd really like to see Athleta tights made with a thicker, more substantial fabric. Also, big stash pockets would be nice please.

The top band around the waist and upper hip has changed from the Elation Ultra High Rise tight and also the flair version. It is narrower and ends at an unattractive place on my very slim hips so that it looks like I have a lumps at the bottom of the band. I'm 5' 7" and weigh 123 lbs. so the band shouldn't cause this to happen. I have three pairs of the Elation Ultra High Rise tights and they are perfect. In addition, the Elation Ultra High Rise Straight leg pant is very unattractive looking. They fit through the waist, hip and thigh, except for the lumps at the hip, but then bell out at the knee in a straight line down so there is much excess material that is awkward and has no style like the flair ones did. They were returned. When is Athleta going to bring back the Elation Ultra High Rise Flair pant. They are only available now in extremely small sizes. The quality, if the styling is ignored, is good. Athleta is a quality product and I consistently buy from them because there is room for an athletic rear end but this pant lost because of the changes in styling from the original tights and flair pant.

Comments about Elation Ultra High Rise Straight Leg Pant

I really like the cut of these. It's hard to find slim boot cut yoga pants. It seems like it's all flare or skinny legs these days. The material is also pleasantly soft, and I like the high waste I wish there were pockets on the sides. I also find the material unforgiving—you can see every scratch, mole, or bump underneath it! Haven't had them long enough to know how they hold up with multiple washes.

Comments about Elation Ultra High Rise Straight Leg Pant

These are very comfortable and perfect for Florida winter. I am 5' 4" tall. 132 lbs. Medium fits well. The regular length was too long. Petite length is okay. Wish they were just a tad longer but good length for running around with tennis shoes. Would buy again in a different color.

Fabric should be slightly thicker and pants need pockets.

I have a favorite pant from a different retailer. The price difference was significant. I tried one to see what I thought. I loved it! I also went back and ordered 2 more. I will buy again.

Comments about Elation Ultra High Rise Straight Leg Pant

I absolutely love the chocolate pieces I bought in Toronto. The young lady who helped me (at the Eaton Centre) was just terrific. Her name was Janet and I believe she may have been the Manager. I really wish we had an Athleta here in Winnipeg!
