womens running pants - reviews
Perfect
These pants are fantastic. I wear them for running, but they're comfortable enough to wear for non athletic uses (not a lot of compression - which I like). They provided the perfect amount of warmth/breathability for long runs in January in New England, and I found they stayed in place just great and I didn't need to do any adjusting during my runs at all. A large fits me like a glove, and I'm usually a large on the bottom. I also love the Chatarunga knickers - love this whole line. And I wear them exclusively running, as I'm not much of a yogi. Love, love, love these pants.
Great for running!
I wear these for cold weather running. Very comfortable and thick enough to keep my legs warm. I would imagine they'd also be perfect for yoga. Highly recommend them.
LOVE THESE PANTS!
I wear these on my way to hot yoga, running or at the gym & they are great! The rise is higher than other pants but that's actually a good thing as it's much more flattering on where it hits on your waistline (no muffin top)! :) They are extremely flattering & great quality!
Fantastic Tights - be sure to get the right size!
These are all around great tights, for yoga or running. They are durable and have great compression. Look good for workouts or as leggings under long shirts and dresses (especially if you want that compressive effect for a smooth line!). For those reviewers who find that the pants slip and need to be pulled up on a regular basis - you are buying your pants too big!!! At the store, we are constantly helping ... size down in our compression pants to fight "the slip." If you are a size 2-4, buy an XS!!! If you are a size 6, buy an S! Medium works for ... 8-10 range, and L for 12/14, XL for 14/16. Obviously these are guidelines, but if you buy them a bit larger because you don't want them to feel tight, the inevitable result is that they won't stay in place during a workout. The pants are extremely well designed, and sizing down won't give you a muffin top - just better compression and overall fit. Cheers, and see you in Georgetown!
LOVE
I have been trying to upgrade my workouts lately by buying a lot of new workout gear. I got these pants in the mail yesterday and immediately put them on and ran down to a hot yoga class - which turned out to be REALLY HOT b/c the class before had been completely full as was this class. The top I wore was also recently purchased but not from Athleta. First of all, I can tell that these pants will not wear out fast - they are super stretchy but also sturdy. The waist is really comfortable because it stays in place and doesn't need to be adjusted but there also isn't any kind of uncomfortable band. The thing that I found most telling about the quality of these pants was, after class, my friend and I went next door for dinner and drinks. By the time we left the bar, these pants had long since been dry but the top (which was also supposed to be fast drying, moisture wicking, etc, etc) was still sopping wet. I honestly might've been drier faster if I had been wearing a cotton t shirt. These pants are very pricey but I think the quality is immediately apparent so I'd venture to say that they're worth it.
Great Yoga Tight
I ordered these in a Tall (I'm 5' 9") and they fit perfectly. They are a good fit, not too tight or compressive (so therefore not really great for running as they tend to want to migrate and they have no waist tie since they are really for yoga). I've worn them for yoga, running and as leggings and aside from the running, I would say they are great all the way around :)
Great tight
I've used these tights for yoga, running, and the gym. They were perfect under a pair of bootcut workout pants for a cold weather session. They move nicely with the body but totally keep their shape. I purchased both the Small and the Small Tall, and went with the Tall as I like a little extra length. I'm 5'8", 125lbs, with a small frame.
Amazing yoga tights!
I opened the box when these arrived today, and after trying these pants on, I almost couldn't bring myself to take them off. They're AMAZING! They feel *better* than a second skin. Wearing them is more comfortable than wearing nothing at all. That said, they are plenty thick for compression, warmth, and durability. It's the quality and sensation of the material that makes these so wonderful to wear. I know I ordered petite sizing, and I think I got XXS, but maybe XS. I'm very short, and the petite length worked great. These tights hit right at at my angle, where they're supposed to be. I was hoping to sport these for yoga, outdoor running, and hiking. They would be a welcome partner for all of these activities, and many more. I may have to get another pair (or as many as I can afford) to keep myself outfitted in the best ever yoga tights. Can't recommend enough <3 The charcoal color looks great. I guess I'll get the same color again, or go for black next time. Cheers :-)
great for yoga or pilates, not so much for running
I absolutely adore the Chaturanga capris for Pilates and running, so thought I'd try the tights for the colder weather. They are fabulous for Pilates, but when I run in them, I find myself constantly pulling the waist up -- they will NOT stay up, which makes for a very uncomfortable run. For some reason, the capris do not seem to do this. They fit well and are flattering, and definitely seem to be true to size -- I'm really not sure what the problem is. But bottom line -- I would recommend these for yoga or Pilates, but definitely not for running.
love the pants
i bought one pair and after wearing them i bought three more....they are great for walking, running, and just hanging out in them...they are very flattering. i recommend them for those who like tights. thanx
Pretty nice pants
I am about 5'2" and I got these in a petite small. They were a little shorter than I expected, but with the split hem, I still like the way they fit. Also, for a petite pant, the rise was higher than I expected, causing them not to stay up at my waist as well as I would like during intense workouts or while running, but I wouldn't want them any tighter (aka: a smaller size). Overall a good pant with a few quirks.
