About this style

Power through the toughest of runs in these leggings from Sweaty Betty. They're cut in a compressive skinny fit with a convenient 7/8 length. Added stretch and a high elasticated waistline ensure effortless movement. The sweat-wicking fabric keeps you cool and fresh for longer and delivers UV40+ protection from the sun's rays. Meanwhile, reflective detailing helps you be seen in dark conditions and mimics kinesiology tape for extra support. A drop-in side pocket and a zipped back pocket provide useful storage.

I bought these legging because I liked the style, not because I can run. They look really nice and are very flattering.

See Through

Luckily a friend bought these for me as a present because I would be fuming if I had paid this much for such terrible leggings. Completely and utterly see through, as in can see my tattoo through them. How on earth did anyone involved in making these think they were suitable?!

Comfortable and supportive

Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

Yes, I recommend this

Wanted leggings specifically for running, sweaty betty doesn’t have a lot of choice as mainly gym or yoga focused. Comfortable and supportive with space for keys and phone, would prefer a zip on phone pocket as feel like it may come out while running (hasn’t so far). Sizing a bit off, based on measurements was a xl, but ignored waist size and a s fit fine. Measurement Sizing aimed at being the models build. Lightweight legging, not a winter legging, legs get freezing as material is thin.

Perfect fit 💖

Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

I wore these leggings for running and they did not move at all. Perfect. I am 5ft 2" and they are the perfect length for full length leggings on me. Big pockets for phone and other bits, the reflective parts look really good too. I love them. Definitely recommend.

Whoa, Sweaty Betty, bam - ba - lam

Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

Had my eye on these for ages but had been put off by other reviews saying they where see through and poor quality and kept deleting them out of my basket. Sweaty Betty dont do bad leggings so I decided to give them a go and I wasn’t disappointed - no knickers or skin on show here!!!! Don’t think there is any difference in sizing either as some reviews seem to say - fit seems the same as all my other Bettys. Love the reflective markings on the tights but still like the navy blue one block colour. Comfortable on the waist and round the backs of the knees and I love the bonus extra side pocket. May now need to get the black ones too. My one and only complaint is that they didn’t give me a PB this morning at Parkrun (though I suspect that’s not the fault of the leggings 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🤣)

Really comfortable and supportive running tights

Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

The running tights are fabulous and really comfortable to wear. I especially like the 2 pockets which means I can have my phone in one pocket and either gloves or a drink in the other pocket. The small zipped pocket at the back is perfect for holding a car key. My first Sweaty Betty running tights and not my last.

Totally unsuitable - see through on bum!

Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

I’d read some other reviews but thought these can’t be that bad surely…leggings themselves are nice fit and material, good pockets. But I was just incredibly disappointed because my black knickers were clearly visible through them! Totally unsuitable for running given how see through they are on your bum - did nobody test these before they were sold to customers? Not the quality I expect from sweaty betty. Sent back. Sticking with tried and tested power leggings!

My favourite running leggings

Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

Yes, I recommend this

This is my second pair as they are my perfect running leggings and wanted another pair! They don’t slip, in fact they don’t move, no riding up or down, they have the phone pocket as I don’t like wearing any belts etc and don’t ride down when the phone is in the pocket. They keep me the right temperature what ever the weather.

Best I've ever had

Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

Comfort wise you don't know you're wearing these and they still keep the cold out. They fit beautifully and I love the high waist so they don't feel like they're falling down. Really pleased.

Material transparency issue

Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

No, I don't recommend this

The material and the compression is really nice for sure, but with non-beige underwear and if you are under the sun the material can be quite transparent. Considering the price, it really shouldn't be so transparent. Slightly disappointed

Great running tights. 3/4 length great for 5ft4

Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

Love Sweaty Betty run leggings. Comfy; flattering, good mobility, material not to thick, not think either. High waist and at 5ft4 the 2/4 length is perfect. I wear longer socks in winter and then trainer socks in summer. They also last...also true to size.
