High Waisted Leggings

I have been purchasing a number of capris & tops as of late and as many are designed similarly, my reviews will endeavor to give details on items purchased in the hopes of better informing future customers. I will rate items I have purchased with the following criteria. Size: Fabric: Construction: Color (true to image): Washability: Appearance: Fit: The ‘LMB Capri Leggings for Women with High Wast and Tummy Control’ was found to be as follows. Size: I ordered ‘One Size’ as I usually wear Medium/Large and they fit true to size which seems to be S-XL. I would recommend ordering your regular size as the chart indicates. Fabric: This fabric is buttery soft, very smooth on ones skin. To be honest, the texture reminded me of ‘private sale/boutique leggings at 3x the price. So far so good, in terms of fabric durability, but I will update this review if anything changes. Construction: The construction of these leggings was sturdy. Nothing fancy, but well constructed none the less. There were no loose threads or popped seams. Seams were smooth and the elastic waistband fell mid waist on me (I am 5’) without rolling. Decorative top stitching was found on the ‘Black Iris’ pair, ‘Navy’ did not have that option. (See images) Color (true to image): I was looking to order a navy and blackish grey to match certain tops I own, in my second order, and after much debate, I ordered ‘navy’ and ‘black Iris’. When they arrived, I discovered they were both constructed of the same fabric/color. *There was an interesting construction difference however. On the waistband, ‘Black Iris’ had decorative top stitching and ‘Navy’ did not (in the capris I received). Other than those construction details, they appeared to be the same capris. (I have included images to show the top stitching differences in the 2 different colors of capris, in case someone is seeking a certain look. ‘Navy’ on the left, ‘Black Iris’ on the right.) Washability: I have three pair of these leggings and they have been fine thus far. Washing on cold, with no dryer time but instead, laid flat (or on a clothing rack) to dry is my laundry habit with these capris. Appearance: The color of all 3 capris is a basic solid navy - on the deeper navy hue. This color so far has not faded through multiple washes. I will update this review should anything change. Fit: I wear between a Medium/Large, being 5’, 135 lbs and ‘One Size’ fit me well without being too tight, with no panty lines. The fabric fit without stretching out after wearing for over 8 hours. The Navy fabric was not see through, and was comfortable on hot days. Although the description mentions ‘tummy control’, none of the capris I ordered had tummy control. The waistband was wider (app 3”) than that of other simple ‘turned over & stitched’ elastic waisted capris/leggings I have purchased, but it was as loose fitting as the capris themselves, not one that helped my tummy look flatter nor did it feel more controlled (at least not to me). As for recommending these for purchase, I would recommend them with my only stipulation being to check details carefully such as color, waistband design and details such as top stitching as there are many choices available for purchase. I strive to write honest, frank, true to life reviews in order for future readers to make informed purchases. I do not and will not write false reviews for items that do not meet up to my expectations or needs. My reviews are my own opinion, honest and to the point.
