I have almost every color
I love these pants! My legs are slightly longer than average and they are the perfect length for me. I ordered XL after checking the Athleta size chart and they fit me well (I have clothes ranging from 8-14 in my closet that all fit, so I always check the measurements instead of going by size only). The material is thick (sometimes a little too warm for intense indoor workouts, perfect for cool outdoor weather). With the topstitching and the pockets, they look enough like regular pants that I wear them to work with a nice top and nobody has remarked on them... except: the Midnight color is really PURPLE, and one guy thought I was rocking the 60's with my orange top. Those are going to be strictly ... now on. The black is solid black as advertised, the grey heather is a nice, different look, and the olive is a nice dark color that goes well with my favorite orange toned tops. The only color I have yet to acquire is asphalt. If these were available in a demin I would definitely buy those as well. I love how they fit flat against my body so I can wear a form fitting top over them - much better than jeans. They look like slacks but feel sooo comfortable! I have worn them directly from the office to a tough ... So far they have laundered well too, but my oldest pair is only three months old. Please add a demin choice, Athleta!
finally workouts that are long enough
I am 5'9 and weigh 115. I have a 36" inseam. I purchased an extra small tall. I have NEVER been able to even own a pair of ... pants. I have always had to wear capris. These pants are amazing, not only do they fit great, they wash great, they don't bag out. They are perfect. My only complaint with Athleta is that they don't have more styles. There are several other styles I would love to purchase but the sizing is off. They are size 2 and up. They need to come in a 0 tall.
Wasn''t sure at first
I put them on and thought they were a little too fitted - I have the Bettona boyfriend (which are incredible) and so those are little more relaxed but I bit the bullet and work them to a workout and not only did they feel great people came up to me and complimented me on them. They thought I was wearing pants to work out in. They was great - but I never dry my workout clothes so not sure how they would do in a dryer. The only other point I would make is unlike my other workout pants these attract my dogs white hairs and are hard (not impossible) to get off.
A Great Pant
I like these so much that I can't decide how to wear them. I got them for the gym, TKB and Boot Camp classes, but I like them so much I will probably wear them outside of the workouts. So do I put them in my ... clothes drawer or hang them with my regular clothes? Maybe I need 2 pairs!
Good transition pant from workout to life
These workout pants are well made, nice fabric and look flattering on. The waist is unusually loose though. I am curvy and typically wear a large in Athleta bottoms and am going to reorder these in a medium in the hopes that the waist will be tighter but that the pants won't be too tight overall. These pants seem like they would transition nicely from workout to errands with a classier look than typically workout wear.
Great pants
Pros: Love the look of these pants. Super comfy with a casual, wear anytime feel b/c of the denim like styling. Material is a good weight. Good for fall to spring workouts. Also great to just throw on at the end of a work day. I'd love a pair in gray heather but they've been sold out in my size. Cons: I'm 5'7" with long legs and typically wear a size 4 tall. Bought medium tall bettona pants and they were insanely long, even for me and I lean toward too long pants. Exchanged for small regulars. They are JUST long enough. If they shrink with washing, I'll send them back and exchange for talls and hem them. The overall fit could be more snug. I typically wear Nike ... pants and like their just a-touch snugger fit. Rise is fine. I tend to wear [@] low rise jeans, so I'm like a lower rise, but these are just fine. Overall...sizing is difficult, other than that, I love them!
Lots of compliments on these
I had been looking for a pair of workout pants that I could wear while running the kids to school, stopping by the grocery store, all before hitting the running trail or elliptical. Of course I do that in my regular workout bottoms but with the pockets and stitching, these can almost pass as everyday bottoms. Many people ask me about them so I guess I'm not the only one who likes the idea! Things to note, that I couldn't exactly tell ahead of time, is that the material is thinner than you might think, and the material really IS pretty stretchy. They run on the larger size. I'm 5'10" and usually wear a size 14 but I had to return the XL size and go down to a L. Something to keep in mind. Also, I wear these running but they do have a bootleg so that might not suit everyone. All in all, they are a great addition to my ... wardrobe.
