Excellent performance and comfort

Just got back from a rainy jog in 40F weather and these leggings performed beautifully. They really move with you, so there doesn't seem to be any even minor restriction whether you're taking stairs two at a time or leaning into a triangle or pigeon pose. The fabric is thin and slippery, so it settl...

super high rise, compressive, but ripped

I'm 5'1'', 170 lbs, top heavy. I got these in a regular length, size medium. I'm happy with the fit. I ordered these in navy for cardio/running. they have a super high rise, they're compressive, and they didn't roll down on me, even when I used them in yoga. They come up almost to my sports bra, w...

Fantastic for Running!

This is my first time trying running tights, and now I am a convert. They are fabulously compressive, and they stay put with no need to adjust while running. The material is smooth and slick, and it glides easily to help prevent chafing. They're absolutely on the tighter end, but this is by design. I am a true size small in many other Athleta leggings, went with a small in these, and I'm glad I did. They're too compressive to be comfortable for activities like yoga or pilates, but perfect for running or HIIT. I will say the waist band is especially high, but that's perfect for me as someone with a long torso and shorter legs. Wish they weren't sold out so I could buy more!

Bought on clearance. It's like a weird bathing suit type material and doesn't breathe, but way too small. I wear XS in Athleta bottoms and I can't fit in these. Unfortunately can't exchange as they were final sale.

Athleta is a great brand!

I'm glad I didn't listen to some of the other reviews that said to size up. IMO, these fit true to size. They are meant to fit tight, but don't feel uncomfortably so. The waist is firmer than other leggings from athleta, but I believe it is to prevent slipping. These leggings are definitely meant for more intense exercise rather than lounging or yoga, and will serve me well for running or HIIT!

While I normally wear an XS in Athleta leggings, these were way too small. Alas, I bought them on final sale and cannot return.

I'm always a size Small in Athleta leggings and I couldn't even pull these on. They run very small. Material seems like it would be comfortable but I can't use them unfortunately

Quality brand!
