Let me start by saying these leggings are a game-changer. The moment I slipped them on, I understood the hype. The buttery-soft fabric feels like a second skin—luxurious without being overly delicate. As someone who lives in athleisure, these have quickly become my go-to for both yoga sessions and lazy Sundays.

The Good: The high-rise waistband is *chef’s kiss*—it stays put without digging in or rolling down, even during intense downward dogs. At 5'9", the 28" inseam finally gives me full coverage (no awkward ankle gaps!). They’re squat-proof (tested rigorously), breathable, and surprisingly durable—my cat’s claws haven’t left a single snag.

The Not-So-Good: If you prefer compression for HIIT workouts, these might feel too lightweight. The lighter colors could be slightly sheer under bright studio lights. And yes, the lack of pockets stings a bit when I’m running errands post-workout.

Real Talk: These are 100% a Lululemon Align dupe at half the price. After three washes (cold, hang-dry—don’t tempt fate with heat!), they’ve held their shape and color beautifully. Tall girls rejoice: no more "cropped" leggings masquerading as full-length!

Verdict: Worth every penny for yoga/lounge lovers. Already planning my next order in espresso brown.
