Love the design and cut of these leggings. They provide the perfect snatched look without being overly compressive or restrictive. I find them comfortable and perfect for activities where you want that 'held in' feel like running. The material around the tummy is thicker and sturdier but smooth and comfortable. The material around the legs is also thicker and I think possibly too warm for summertime but for Spring/Fall/Winter, absolutely perfect. I also like the rear seam and how it curves over the glutes, very flattering. I read so many reviews and stuck with my original Lululemon size which is 4. I think a 6 would have been a little too big.

I listened to the other reviewers that said these run small and to size up. Ugh! I knew I should have ordered my correct size the first time.

Instead of returning the larger size I decided to keep the ones I initially ordered and ALSO get a pair in my correct size to see how they compared throughout the day. Here we go:

I am 5'6" 119 lbs, jeans usually a US size 2/XS, Lululemon I am a leggings size 4. I have a pretty hourglassey figure (narrow middle/rib cage area) which I think is why I loved these. I have no bulge at the top given my shape.

I do NOT recommend these if you are round/apple shaped!! You will bulge out of the top.

Overall: When you first feel the material of these leggings you're initial reaction is that they are THICK. Almost wetsuit-esque. Once they were on though you do not notice the thickness at all. They are very comfortable and do not dig into my stomach, even when sitting shrimped up at a weird angle whilst typing this.

These leggings are defiantly have high compression, but in my opinion, are way more flexible than the Wunder Train. They are not restrictive whatsoever.

I was expecting to sweat up a storm in them just by having them on my body, given that they are thickkk and give that vibe, but these are way more breathable than expected.

And well I will say I did indeed sweat more in them than my Aligns and Wunder Trains while running and doing Pilates, they did however dry up way quicker so it was hardly noticeable. Given the quicker drying time I would chose to stick with the Glows even though there's more sweat along the way.

Size 6: They still fill fitted and have a semi okay compression hold to them around the thighs, however I have a gap around the top band that does not sit flush against my body. The thick fabric gives a nice smoothing effect. Great for day to day activities as long as I have a shirt that doesn't show the extra fabric gaping out.

Size 4: They fit snug and seemless while still being able to move around freely. I am able to run and do pilates with no issues and the top band does not roll down, which was a concern of mine. My lower belly is nice and smoothed out, concealed very well giving a flattening effect.

Overall I am highly impressed, but if you do not have a flat or hourglass figure you're going to despise these with a passion.
