Let’s talk about these RAYPOSE leggings—because wow, they’ve become my go-to for everything from horse training to disc golf. First off, the high-waist design is a game-changer. It sits snugly above my belly button (I’m 5’8”), offering tummy control without suffocating me. No awkward rolling down mid-squat!
The 4-way stretch fabric feels like a second skin—buttery soft yet durable. I’ve bent, lunged, and even split wood in these, and zero sheerness. Plus, the side pockets fit my Pixel 3 XL perfectly (and yes, they’ve survived my taser stash too).
Breathability? A+. The mesh cutouts keep me cool in Houston’s swampy heat. As a horse trainer, I sweat buckets, but these wick moisture like champs. They dry fast and don’t cling—even after a muddy trail ride.
Sizing tip: Measure your waist! I initially ordered a Medium (5’4”, 150lbs) but downsized to Small after weight loss. Snug at first, but now they fit like a glove. The waistband doesn’t dig in, and the legs stay put—no annoying mid-run adjustments.
Durability wins: After months of abuse (washing weekly + snagging on barn equipment), the mesh edges are slightly frayed but intact. Stitching? Still flawless. Color fade? Minimal (though one reviewer noted a greenish tint over time).
The cons? No belt loops (but who needs those in leggings?). Also, if you’re petite, the length might require cuffing.
Final verdict: For $30-ish, these outperform pricier brands. I own three pairs and will buy more—especially if they release Capri versions. Perfect for gym rats, outdoor warriors, or anyone who hates flashing their undies during downward dog.
