I was wary because they were so cheap ($9.99) but ended up pleasantly surprised. The material is soft, not as buttery soft as Athleta Powervita material, but soft. It’s a smooth, slippery feel on the outside, kind of like a swimsuit would be. The seams don’t chafe, the stitch quality is decent, and they seem like they’ll last a while. I’ve washed them twice (including putting them in them in the dryer) and they’re holding up fine. They’re not see through at all and there’s a fair amount of thickness to the material, but not too much. I wore them around the house, doing chores, and running errands and they were very comfortable, no camel toe, no sweat showing through, and dry quickly. I wouldn’t wear these for running (I prefer a thinner legging with cooling panels for cardio because I sweat like crazy) but they’re made for yoga, not running, so that makes sense. I am 5’6” and about 115-120lbs and I ordered the Small and they fit ok. The length is just right, they’re not too tight, but the waist has some room in it on me and that results in me having to adjust them every so often, but not a lot at all. When I hear “compression” I think of my UnderArmout Heat Gear running tights (and that’s serious compression) so I didn’t find these to be a compression fit at all, they’re leggings but not compression leggings. If someone thinks these compression and see through, it’s because they need a larger size, not because the leggings are that way. The side pockets are handy but after using one for my iPhone 11 with case, the material stretched at the top but went back to normal after being washed. Overall, a good legging, especially for the price. I still prefer my Athleta Salutation leggings, but it’s not really fair to compare these against them considering the huge price difference. Would I buy these again? Yes.
