Dream Tights!
Definitely made for the active lifestyle. I wore them for hiking and at the gym. Sweat-wicking A+. Definitely can move freely in them. No see-through areas during squats. The legs stayed secure; no riding up. They have deep, stretchy pockets on each side and an approx 3.5 inch wide pocket at the back waist. Can fit a lot things in all pockets actually! My iPhone 12 Pro was securely cradled in the side pocket. Has an elastic band inside the front waist that you can customize the fit (With a slip knot.). I am 64 in tall, 115 lb, with a 28 inseam. I chose size small, petite & fit well. The waist hit me above the belly button. I think they’re warm enough even for 45° weather. They are worth the price. You could buy a more expensive, brand name, but they wouldn’t be any better than these!
Comfy and smooth
These pants feel almost like you’re not wearing any with how light and smooth the fabric is as soon as you put it on. I used these comfortable, move with you pants on multiple days to run errands, jog, workout (weights), yoga/pilates, and hiking with my dogs. They are great! Typically I wear a large, got these in XL and they were fine. If between sizes, go up to enjoy the feel and wear.
Super soft practical leggings
These are simple leggings with nice side pockets. The pocket in the back is nice but I would prefer it to have a zipper closure. The material is soft and comfortable. These have a lot of practical uses from daily wear to intense workouts. I would recommend them!
Just okay. Hugged all the wrong areas!
I bought these and a pair of pace breaker tights from Athleta to wear hiking in Utah this summer. These are made of a rougher material, so they were not as comfortable as the Athleta tights. They would probably hold up well if your hiking includes scrambling because the material is less likely to snag. However, these did not have enough compression. They seemed to hug (not smooth) every unflattering part of my hips and rear end. The small was too small, so I went with the petite medium (my normal size). In the end I kept the Athleta tights because they were more comfortable and flattering, even though they are better suited for running than hiking.
size up if “between” sizes…
I’m usually a medium in most things REI and other brands, around size 6-8, and curvy. I checked measurement for these, and chart suggested I was almost a small. I opted for medium, and glad I did. If you’re between sizes, go up!
Not durable
It fit well and was cute. But the seams started to fray after the first wash. Unfortunately these leggings are not durable for general outdoor wear. I had to return them after only wearing them once.
Mostly made of polyester
My husband got these for me knowing I had other leggings from REI. Well, I love my other ones, this material has very little stretch and is not comfortable. I would never wear them to work out or hike, but they are OK for walking the dog. I would not personally purchase them.
Good while they lasted, but didn't last long
I really liked these at first. Unfortunately, I've only had them for a month and a half, and the seams are already coming apart.
Please bring back the old material!
I love the color, but the material just isn't as good as it used to be. I really preferred the "recipe" of spandex and rayon that these leggings used to be made out of. The pockets are still amazing though, and the fit is great.
Active Pursuits relaxed fit, 👍
Love the relaxed fit of these for me—am older! Nice deep pockets, available in petite to tall too. The fabric used is a kind of wind resistant but stretchy fabric. Would love to have same fit with a light weight knit….
