Very flattering material and fit
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
I bought these leggings to wear to the gym. I love everything about them except the side pocket. I only buy workout wear with pockets but the pocket but it’s too small to hold my cell phone and IPods without fumbling around to get them in and out.

My only criticism is I received an email saying that because of my first anniversary I was entitled to 25%off but couldn't use it because of the 20% offer you had and it wouldn't let me change it

Why have these shrunk? Could hardly get on and are definitely smaller that the existing 2 pairs I own (one the same black + 1 pattern). So disappointed

Poor quality

Sweaty Betty power leggings have been my go to for a number of years. I didn’t mind paying extra for the quality and fit I could immediately tell these are no longer the same leggings. The sizing is smaller and material is way thinner. They used to be squat proof but not now. They feel cheap and so uncomfortable compared to previous pairs. Bring back the old versions please :(

The phone and keys pockets make it the best!
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
Yes, I recommend this
These are the only leggings I buy for running due to the fit and the feel but primarily because of the phone pocket at the side and door keys pocket at the back. I would buy more of their products if they all had these useful extras.

Ride down terribly
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
No, I don't recommend this
I'm really disappointed with these leggings. They ride down terribly and pull my underwear down inside the leggings which is something I've never experienced before! I wouldn't have known this without wearing them for a workout but now I have, I can't return them. They sit slightly lower on my stomach than other power leggings (not in a good way) and the pocket at the back seems very bulky even with nothing in it.

Good leggings but the fabrics changed
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
Yes, I recommend this
It’s a while since I bought a pair of sweaty betty leggings . What I found is that come up snugger. I’m a 12/14 and have always bought medium but I had to size up . They are still great leggings but I personally found the original fabric a bit more comfortable.

Unhappy

I am not happy with this product. I wore these in the gym and ended up with a huge sweat patch around the crotch area. As I have worn them I understand that they cannot be returned but I am frustrated as spent a lot of money on this product.

Great leggings for long runs
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
Yes, I recommend this
I have several pairs of these leggings and find them super-comfortable. They stay in place on long runs and maintain their shape over time, too. The 7/8 length is good for my 5'3" frame, too.

Not for me
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
really small fitting, I am usually a small to medium and this medium was way too small... I was squeezed like they were mega compression tights! I decided not to order the next size up as the waist might be too big.

Best Leggings Ever
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
Yes, I recommend this
I don't run, in fact I am disabled, but these leggings are not only the most comfortable, fit tightly to me without any sagging anywhere, and wash so well and keep looking brand new. They may be dear but they last and look and feel as good as new always and last so long. I recommend these to everybody, not just runners. Absolutely the best leggings one could buy. And the pocket is fabulous!

Really happy with the fit of these leggings. They are my second pair of power leggings. They are the perfect fit. I’m a size 10/12 and bought the medium.

What happened to the quality?
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
No, I don't recommend this
I’m so disappointed by the drop in quality of these leggings. I’ve worn them for years and didn’t mind paying their premium price as they were definitely worth it. They are so thin now and I feel like I’m wearing a pair of cheap opaque tights. Please go back to the original product.

This is my second pair, the first pair lasted well and are still going after about 2 years which I shall now wear for slobbing about as I noticed the extra support of this new pair. I always go for the navy as it looks clean and chic.
