Promising review: "I got sooo many compliments! I love the way my butt looks in them. I'm a hairstylist and I loved how after a haircut i didn't feel itchy because the hair just slid off. They're fleece-lined too, so that is just a bonus in comfortable land! Love love love; them i got a 3X and they fit perfect! I'm usually super nervous with ordering pants online, but this was a win for sure." –M. Slotterbeck

Promising review: "I LOVE THESE! They are well made and thicker material than I expected. The mesh design is very cute and helps to ventilate your legs. They are high waisted and do not sag. They do run small so I suggest sizing up. I normally wear a small but I ordered a medium and they fit perfectly! I love wearing these to Zumba :)" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "These pants are what I’ve been looking for for MONTHS! I have fibromyalgia with allodynia, so tight waistbands and seams pain me to tears. I’ve been on the hunt for buttery-feeling leggings that don’t feel tight anywhere while being close-fitting, as leggings should be. These are AMAZING. They also aren’t see-through and are 1/8 the price of a certain overly priced brand! I’m in heaven! I’ll need to buy every color and like 10 of the black because I’m never wearing any other pants again!" —Coffeybean84
Get them from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in sizes XS–3X and 26 prints).
Promising review: "I love these pants. They feel good on my skin. They aren't see-through. They make my butt look out of this world. The only downside is my boyfriend is really tired of me making that joke every time I wear these." —Hanna

Promising review: "I LOVE these yoga pants. I ordered the blue with a pocket and I love them! I have used them for jogging, yoga, barre, and rock climbing and they performed great! They are super comfortable, to the point where when I get home I don't want to take them off. Normally with high-waisted pants I worry about it squeezing me like a corset, but these are SO comfortable. At my last barre class I had two girls come up and ask where I got these. The fabric is soft, too. I've owned yoga pants that pushed into the $50-$60 range and these pants are BETTER. I cannot say enough good things about them; I'm in the process of purchasing more colors." —Kay713

Promising review: "I was skeptical about buying these pants as I am about most exercise clothing online. I got them in and wore them for a run. After my run I celebrated with champagne. Lo and behold.... these pants fit a whole bottle of champagne in the pocket! This was a phenomenal feature! Since then, my run times have improved tremendously. I highly recommend these pants for this feature alone." —Jesse Shiyou

Promising review: "Love these pants!! Ever since starting a new position where I was expected to wear 'real pants' as opposed to my beloved leggings I was a little disheartened. These pants came to my rescue. They feel like leggings (without the weird scratchy material other pull-on pants have) and look like real pants. I'm ordering more!" —Mildly.atypical

Promising review: "Wow!!! Love these leggings! Three things: The material feels like silky, soft fleecy butter on your legs. They are so soft and ridiculously comfortable. Second, the stretch and snap back is great! They don't get worn out or lose their shape after wearing. Third, I love the higher waist. No tugging, pulling or adjusting throughout the day. I can lounge in these, or workout and they stay comfortable all day. The quality is great and I can easily compare these to the LuLaRoe leggings but half the price! Highly recommend, and I just ordered more." —AR

Promising review: "Love these!!! Everyone I know is all about the Lularoe craze. I wanted cute printed leggings that were comfortable and looked good but without the hassale of going through an MLM consultant or fighting other women online to comment on a pair of Lularoe that I wanted and claim them. Enter these. They are actually JUST like the Lularoe OS leggings. The fabric (yes they are just as soft) and fit are the exact same on me and they are half the price!!! Can't go wrong. I love them." —Holly

Will buy again!" —BettyBennett
