Active Maternity Leggings with Crossover Panel^®

I wanted so badly to love these leggings, but they did not pass the bend over test. I tried them on in store and they were fine, bent over, seemed fine.....got home and did the bend over test in daylight and it was a no go! You could see straight thru them! I bought a Medium which allowed extra room for the coming weeks and could've worn a Small, but both did not pass.

I purchased these as well as the Ingrid and Isabel crop and capri workout pants. I have had the most problems with these. The fabric is thicker than most other workout pants I've had, but they're still slightly see-through when I bend over or even when I bend my knees. And I don't think I could have sized up, as I'm almost 30 weeks and there is still extra fabric and gaping at the top of the belly panel. I also find them quite warm for working out. Also, the second time I put them on, the seam near the zipper on one of the legs ripped. There is now a hole at the top of the zipper, and two less serious rips higher up on the seam. I also agree with other reviewers that the zippers are annoying. Otherwise, they fit well and are flattering, particularly the back crossover panel. If you are debating between these and the capris, I would go with the capris, as the fit is the same. For reference, I purchased M and I'm 5'10", 143 lbs pre-pregnancy, and 159 lbs at 29-30 weeks.

These leggings are thick, substantial and comfortable without being flimsy or see-through. I wear them for working out and as part of regular outfits. The one issue I have is that I didn't realize there is an ankle zipper, which prevents them from being hemmed. I am 5'1" so the size S is long on me, and big throughout. I should have ordered an XS. The zipper can scrape you when you are very pregnant and struggling to put them on. I now see the zipper in the photo, but it would be helpful to mention in the description.

These were my go to leggings for my first pregnancy and I love them so much I am getting another pair for my second! They work great as both an active legging or can just be worn as regular leggings. Thick and not see through at all and very supportive. I am super picky about my leggings and I LOVE these. I am 5'8" and 145lbs pre pregnancy and a medium fit me very comfortably. However at the end of my last pregnancy I probably would have liked a large since my belly was so big! Do yourself a favor and buy them!

I love these leggings. I just purchased them for a trip and wore them the whole time. They are very stretchy and will continue to fit for the next couple months (5 months now). They also have a zipper at the ankle which is a cute feature. I do wish they were a tad bit longer. I'm 5'7" and there is some ankle exposure that will be cold with the winter weather.
