Good fitting legs, pocket could be improved

good between-season tights,I took them on 2 short runs between 10-15 degrees and they were great. Took my usual XS (XS or XSp both fits), leg compression felt low/medium, very comfortable. But the waist elastic was tight for size, once i slid them over the hips (fairly straight shape), they fit fine...

Not as compressive as expected

I wanted something more compressive for running and a higher rise so thought these would be perfect. I was a little worried they would be too tight based on reviews but they are anything but. I bought my usual size and they are not much more compressive than my transcends (aka not much). The amount ...

I originally ordered my daughter's usual size in Athleta leggings (XXS) and they were comically small. Like, 6 year old child sized. Reordered in an XS and they were still too small. I wear these a size up from my regular size (normally a Small/Tall, and in these wear a Medium/Tall) and they're still really compressive. The smallest sizes run incredibly small, and there is a huge difference between XXS and XS.

Great fabric. Runs small.

I love these Pacesetter tights for running in 40s F temps! Material is thinner than Interval stash and less compressive than interval stash tights which are suited for cooler temps 30s F or indoor HITT workouts with AC. I would love to see Pacesetter tights with SIDE POCKETS in addition to the back zipper pocket!! I'd also like to see more colors offered. Sizing is true to size. 102 lbs - XS, 97 lbs - XXS

Love the material- hate the fit.

The material is good but what is going on with the cuts? All your newest leggings have the weirdest fits to them. Tye waist cuts you in two and the calves are right!

Great quality

I ordered mine and my daughter's usual sizes in these. Had to exchange for a size up for both of us. They run incredibly small on top of being compressive which is a bad combo. otherwise though, they're great once you get the right size.

This is my first time trying running tights, and now I am a convert. They are fabulously compressive, and they stay put with no need to adjust while running. The material is smooth and slick, and it glides easily to help prevent chafing. They're absolutely on the tighter end, but this is by design. I am a true size small in many other Athleta leggings, went with a small in these, and I'm glad I did. They're too compressive to be comfortable for activities like yoga or pilates, but perfect for running or HIIT. I will say the waist band is especially high, but that's perfect for me as someone with a long torso and shorter legs. Wish they weren't sold out so I could buy more!
