I ordered these to wear under shorts, while biking, in cooler temperatures. The fit is a just a little smaller than I was expecting, but they do, after all, stretch, so not a big deal. The one thing I am sort of on the fence about, which prevented me from giving them 5 stars, is they are really shiny/sparkly. I guess I just prefer more of a matte color. The most important thing about these tights, however, is they are made in the USA.These are surprisingly good compression pants. I'm a big guy, 6'4" 275 lbs and the length is great, the fit in the crotch is really good too.I've laundered them twice and see no ill effects. I'd say they were light weight though, so not sure if you'll stay warm during a winter jog or bike ride. So all in all a good productI ordered these for a running costume, but I'll be wearing them often, and ordering other colors. I'm very pleased with how comfortable they are. The fit was good, and they stayed in place during running. The price was great and they arrived quickly. My only "complaint" is I wish they were a better color match to the shirt. They are a little sheer for my modesty level to be worn alone, but I believe they were meant to be a base layer.I have had tights like these before in a 3x, and these should have fit; however, they are too small. I would need a 4x in this brand, but that size isn't offered. I haven't decided yet whether to return them or just give them to someone. The fabric is of good quality, and exactly what I wanted. I really wish they had fit. If anyone knows where I can get a pair in the same kind of fabric in a 4x, I would really appreciate their letting me know. :)Compared to the other kind from the same maker, these are shiny & tight, but more supportive. The tightness is mostly frankly in the rear. When I bought them, I had just begun a new, ramped up glute & thigh program. They fit well at the beginning, now, just a bit snugger.I got 2 pair, one in black as well as the gray, and my guy loves them!They are shiny and smooth and extremely comfortable...They fit true to size, go up a size and that will be too loose down a size way too.tight... Overall a great pair of tights and love them....For running or dress they will work great...Seller was great all around and accommodating...will order them againSo far so good. I bought these for my son for high school football because the turf would tear up his knees over and over and they have permanent scars. We will see how they hold up during a game.
