pants on sale - reviews
My new favorite winter ...
I bought my first pair because I needed more yoga ... workouts and hanging out at home. ... were on sale so it was a nice time to try them out. ... so warm and comfortable but breathable so you don't get too hot. I was able to turn the thermostat in my house down a couple degrees. I like these ... so much I bought two more pairs.
I am in LOVE!!!
Just got these last week and I have been living in them. From the moment I tried them on I haven't want to take them off. The nylon exterior means no pilling, dog hair brushes right off, and no snags. The fuzzy inside is awesome! I go between M and L in Athelta clothing. I got these in L after reading reviews. I love the way they fit. They are form fitted but not too snug. On me the M probably would have looked more like a tight so while that might have been good for strictly working out I would not want to wander around town in them. Not sure why everyone is complaining about the rise, perhaps they should have gone up a size. The photo of these is incorrect. They have a wider flat waistband which I like so much better. I tried the regular polartec ... they fit me like mom jeans. I literally had to roll the waist. This is the same great fabric plus it is on sale. These do stretch out a wee bit with wear but spring back in the wash. Feesl like these will wear like iron! Is it wrong to love a pair of ...
Best ... own!
I can wear ... running or walking the dogs. I can wear ... work (with real shoes and a nice sweater, ... can look professional.) I wear ... traveling. I love to slip into them after work and relax. After a cold winter surf, ... best treat. ... soft and warm, but light and super comfortable. The best thing about ... fit. ... just look so good. I got the brown on sale and sadly the other colours are out of stock in my size :( I will probably splurge the full price on the only colour now available (asphalt.) I am a size 4 and ordered a medium, which, as I said, fit to perfection. I get a lot of compliments on ...
So Comfortable !!
I tried ... after ... arrived and I didn't want to take them off! I washed them and ... still felt awesome. ... were nice and cozy while I played outside with my kids in 35 degree weather and will probably be great for running in the colder weather. The best part was that ... came in petite size and were on sale! Highly recommended!
Best Winter ... ever
I love these low rise boot cut polartec power stretch ... first medium petit that actually fits me perfectly. They are the most comfortable, durable, warm winter ... own. I actually bought 2 more pair because I liked them so much, and theyj were on sale at a fabulous price. I have told many of my friends about these ... wear them when I go hiking, cross country skiing & all winter activities. They are just so warm & comfortable! Hope Athleta keeps these ... stock.
comfy and warm
While I really love these ... their warmth, style and fit I don't like the fact that I have had to repair the hem twice now for the price I paid. As for size, I normally wear a size petite 0 or 00 in certain brands but I ordered a small rather than Xsmall and they fit perfect, even the length...I normally have to shorten any ... buy. I would buy another pair if ... go on sale but I would love to see the hems hold up better. I had only washed them once when this happened. Another perk...dog hair does not seem to cling to this fabric. Overall, a big thumbs up.
Nice ... n-at
... great pair of ... lounging, walking, hiking , and running. Very warm & comfy. Difficult to get a perfect fit though. The first pair I ordered were Medium Talls (I am 5ft. 8) and ... were way too tight and way too long. So I ordered a Regular Large and ... bit too loose in the waist. Although I am keeping them because the sale price was good and ... fit well enough with a thin shirt tucked into them. Recommend ...
ho hum
... warm enough for cold weather running, walking, hiking, etc., but that's about it. Very unflattering fit. I'm 5'10", 135 lbs. I ordered a size up from my usual M Tall, on the advice of other reviewers. The L Tall fits okay, maybe a little big--don't know if I would have liked the M Tall better. My hip measurement is 38", feel like ... make my hip, butt, thigh area look bigger and a little weird. ... show every panty line, and the side seems with no other seems don't really flatter. Also, the waist is very low--I'm okay with that, but if you're not, order something else. As far as the length goes, they're just long enough, but a little shorter than I would like. If you're much taller than 5'10", ... might be too short. That being said, I got them because ... were on sale and ... were what I could afford/was willing to spend, and ... warm ... okay until I can get something else that has a better fit.
A drawstring would be a vast imrpovement!
I have had my eye on these ... months and finally caved when they went on sale. I usually float between and 8 and a 10 tall (I'm 6'2" and 150); I have ... shorts of both sizes from Athleta. I heeded reviewers warnings and purchased a Large Tall and I can't figure out if they are supposed to fit the way they do. They are WAY low rise. The length is good, but they are snug in the butt and loose in the waist. I would love them if they had a drawstring. I purchased them for spending time outside when it's in the 20s and 30s here and I think they'll do fine, but I find myself constantly worried about flashing my butt to people. However, they never really seem to do show anything so I think I'll keep them. A medium would be way too tight in the butt and probably add unflattering tightness in the rise.
Get these on sale, not worth full price
These are fine ... just one step up from regular old sweat ... Certainly not worth full price. Would not work for really aerobic activities inside, and even not outside - they're much too thick. I'm going to wear these to and from the pool when I go to practice at 6 am in frigid conditions. I'll probably wear them around town too. They're pretty cute. I'm 5'5", 120 lbs, no hips and very small bum. I usually wear a size 2 or XS/S in many athleta ... got the small in these ... they are wayyy snug. An XS would have been way too small. They are very low rise - a good 5 inches below my belly button. I'm fine with that but some may not be. Bottom line, these are decent 'workout' ... wear outside when it's super cold, but not for any activity that you're planning to work up a major sweat in, and not a style that you can throw on over gym shorts. They are definitely an item to get on sale - not worth full price by any stretch!!
No Longer Great
Like many reviewers, I bought my first pair of these ... before Athleta joined the Gap family. My original ... were perfect - slimming (hard to do in fleece) but not tight, warm, and LONG. I am 6' tall and wear a 10-12 in ... normally. My original pair in Large Tall are perfect and have been my go to ... past 2 fall/winter seasons. I wear these ... almost every day after work and on the weekends. I read the reviews saying the ... were not the same post Gap, yet hoped that in spite of the changes they would still work on my body. No such luck. The new ... same size are tight in all the wrong places, about 2" shorter, and lack the original and more flattering flare on the bootcut. These ... make even my 36" inseam look stumpy. I am keeping them because they were on sale and I need another pair to rotate with my original (perfect) pair. It's so hard to find great tall women's athletic ... so I'm sad that Gap has tinkered with a good thing. I really hope Gap is reading these comments and will take them to heart. Please!
