I thought it was size swimwear material.

I thought it was swimsuit material, at least a little compression. You are not. This is a very thin, shiny material that shows every bump and bulge - not for me. And the skirt was ridiculously short - it barely covered my bum even though I'm tall. I'm 5ft 8in, size 16, 220#. I ordered L and XL. I could get a big one but part of the skirt was like this size XL which fitted at the waist but was looser at the leg and baggy at the knees. The skirt was still too short. I will look for it!

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • unreliable

Very cute, super comfy

I'm a size 16 and ordered XL without looking at the Coolibar size chart. I had to order the Large (14-16). My abdomen is my larger area compared to my thighs and buttocks and fits well with both areas, if a bit loose. It doesn't dig into my waist at all, which is actually a bit unusual for me, and the legs are good too. Not too tight. I could wear this size to a resort but would definitely go the right size if I plan to swim in the ocean or I would wear a pair of trunks just in case.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Slightly torn

If in doubt, rather smaller

I accidentally left a great review that I have now deleted. I wanted to say a lot of good things about the skirtless version. I bought them first and the skirt was terrible. Just a streak around me that looked disgusting. I wear a bathing skirt all the time, but not a short, straight one. If they made the skirt a few inches longer and flared it out a bit like any other swimwear skirt, that would be amazing. I sent them back and just bought the pants because apart from the skirt I like the fit…

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Speed

More than 1000 socks later Same color and elasticity

I like it very much. I didn't like the full size Coolibar tights because the ones I bought were made of a different material. They are similar to regular running/training pants, but are thinner and non-compressive. (August 2015) I am updating this five (5) years later (February 2020). I've just ordered another one but I'm going to return it because to be honest it's as good as new. I've lived on a pacific island for 2 of the last 5 years and have worn these pants with a capri skirt almost…

Pros
  • Few competitors

Excellent material and workmanship but skirt rides up

These bottoms are very good! I love the length of the pants and how much they cover. I have a 5 year old so I have to go in and out, up and down to be very comfortable in it. The length of the skirt is a bit short for me and tends to ride up when sitting down and in the water, but after a quick adjustment it's ok. The material is thicker than normal leggings, more like high quality training leggings. They fit a little more. I like that they fit but are not very tight so the material doesn't…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Not the best

Sweet Capri pants with a puffy skirt!

I love the style of these capri skirts - slim and flattering. The skirt is cute, covering the ass and hips. The material is high quality and durable, not too flimsy and not flimsy. I'm 5'4", 132 lbs, with 38" hips and fits small fine. The area I was supposed to be in according to the Coolibar size chart was too baggy. The capris are a bit baggy, especially below the knee as other reviews have noted. They need some tightening. I measured the length of the skirt at 12 inches. I also bought this…

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Too goofy

Great concept and great execution!

I was looking for sunscreen and something to cover my legs. Here's the answer! While at the pool and on the beach someone said "I'm not going to be the trendiest," at least I can walk out with my head held high and spare them the sight of my thighs. While browsing the surf camp website I saw a pretty young girl in a swim caper in one of their photos, so hey! They are there. I'm 5ft 6in, 158# and I don't like my clothes being skin tight. I wear a 12 in Kohl's Gloria V. Amanda jeans, although I…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Will write later

Love it! Comfortable, cute and practical!

So. I guess I'm a real mom in my 30's because I had no idea this product existed but when I found it I thought "YES. YES SIR. I WANT PANTS I CAN WEAR IN THE WATER. O? Can you pull a skirt over pants? PANTS AND SKIRT THAT COVER EVERYTHING? Sign me up. Sign me up, damn it. did not lose the child's weight. Or a child up to that weight. When I was younger, I would have exercised and dieted (and stressed) for weeks before a vacation like this. and then I would probably look relatively skinny and…

Pros
  • Waiting for
Cons
  • The list is getting long.
