Tight. I like them but should have bought one size larger. They are windbreaker material on front of pants. Stretchy a little lined on back half. So less stretchy overall. And it’s cold here where I run. I need an additional layer under. So probably needed one size larger.
These are joggers, not leggings. Not a style I like. The waistband had no give, really only appropriate for narrow hips. The result of the waistband design is that these fit loose, which would be fine for a walk or maybe hike, but not for a run (for me). I think the wind breaker aspect would be excellent, but these are going back. Bummer that REI makes you pay for online returns, forcing you into a store. Bad form.
