Review on Waisted Leggings Stretch Waistband Through Sports & Fitness for Running by Brandon Jaime

Revainrating 3 out of 5

If you are small, the crotch may be too long to the waist

I'm 5'0", about 125 lbs, so short but not too skinny (pant size 6-8, preferably petite). The description says "High Waisted", but it's always hard to know that you will look like compared to a model with 1% body fat whose height is unknown, so I ask the question "You have a high waist because the material is stretchy ." to cover the stomach, or with a high waist because the length of the fabric is supposed to be the length from the crotch to the waist?" These pants belong to the second option, I prefer to wear yoga pants more around the hips and they need to be pulled up uncomfortably so that the crotch is not too low.(I have attached photos comparing this [aubergine] pant to a pair that fits me better [Blue Space Dye], and there is a line showing the height of my navel. When I put them on top of each other, you can see their length from crotch to Waist can be an inch longer. ) I also bought a pair of LMB Lush Moda Extra Soft Capri Leggings (with a regular yoga waist, not a very wide yoga waist) and find the length from crotch to waist fits better. If you have a short torso or often buy pants in a small size, you might want to try this brand instead. The pants are very soft, but I agree with other reviewers that I don't like the belt because it doesn't fit snugly against the skin - you can see that in the photos of the leggings both off and on. Yes I really like the color and texture and since I don't mind if my leggings look a bit silly when I go to aerobics I will keep them. If I decide to buy another pair it will definitely be LMB Lush Moda.

Pros
  • 💖 Perfect for any season, environment or occasion. Elastic high waist capri leggings in SATINA are your everyday leggings. Pair them with a simple, form-fitting top and blazer for work, or with simple trainers for running, yoga, and workouts. Use them as base layer leggings in fall and winter when paired with boots and scarves, or simply pair them with a tank top to keep you cool in spring and summer.
Cons
  • Not the best
