So I was very excited to see a fold over legging, I am old enough to remember the hey day of another brand that had much loved fold over yoga leggings. These pants aren't anything near the awesomeness of the ones I wore many moons ago. The fold over section is actually sewn down so you can't adjust ...it at all. It also ends above any lower belly pooch you may have, so the fold over section ended just below my belly button really pronouncing and popping that lower belly pooch I am always trying to hide and smooth out. If they were what I had hoped then the fold over part would have been able to come down to about where your bikini underwear would hit if you folded them down all the way. This way If you wanted to kinda smooth that area down a bit you could, if you didn't need that you could have folded them over higher up. I had hoped for a customizable to my body type of fold over legging that had all the wonderful light compression of my regular Salutation Stash leggings with the added bonus of another layer that added a little more fold over compression with that scrunched sort of look that was customizable. If these pants were actually that then they would have been awesome. They actually have a rather stiff inch wide elastic at the top of the pant so that nice smooth wide waistband your regular Salutation's have is not a thing and the fold over section is fixed, hit's me at an awkward spot and were a huge disappointment. Think of a sausage with two rubber band wrapped around it, not a good look. I am really here representing the woman, of whom there are many, that don't want to highlight tummy rolls and are looking for solutions where their workout clothes kinda smooth out those areas so you feel more confident in the gym. These pants don't work for this at all. On the other hand if you are blessed with a nice flat tummy then these may be ok on you.
