Very comfortable. Great quality. Typical Baleaf.
These tights are so comfortable. I have a couple pairs of winter fleece lined Baleaf tights for exercise walking in the winter and needed something for spring and fall nights till it gets warmer here in southern Alaska. These are perfect. I was worried the waist would slip down as there's no drawstring, but the elastic really holds its snugness. They are a soft cottony feel and matte color so don't have that shiny look polyester nylon spandex pants often have. What I especially like is the fit. I'm 6'2 225 and the xxl are a good snug fit and long enough so comfortable without pulling up. The legs do not have zipper bottoms but the leg cuffs stretch easily and hold their shape. I've just started wearing these and will look to see their wear over time as they are laundered, but based on my other Baleaf winter tights which wash great with no ill effects (note...gentle cycle, air dry on a chair, don't use a dryer and they dry quick with no shrink). Last, i like these too as they are obviously made to be worn as is. You could wear shorts over them but don't need to. A small logo on the thigh, pockets on each side, and tasteful seams and solid thickness so no awkward exposure. I wear a longer shirt or my nylon windbreaker when out walking to cover my front and back, and I'm fine. Plan to be wearing these to the gym with a long shirt when they reopen again. No modesty issues with these at all. Very pleased. UPDATE its fall now and back to wearing them for outdoor walking and to gym for treadmill. So comfortable, stretchband hold their shape. They have been washed 4-5 times and still fit like new. The elastic definitely holds its tight fit and there's no annoying sag. I wear a windbreaker or fleece over them, or a longer shirt at the gym. Don't have to as these are thick, seams are well placed, and hide well. But I am more comfortable not being as exposed. I bought a navy pair too. Be advised though the navy shade is not that dark. Very pleased.

Nice Value
I was a little hesitant to try anything called leggings, but glad I did. These Baleaf leggings are great for 30-55 degree (F) weather. Material is probably a bit too thin below freezing and over 55 I’m in shorts. Happy to say these are not too tight in the crotch (nobody is going to see anything improper) which was my big worry, nor do they sag in that area either. I wear boxer briefs under them and the leggings aren’t so tight that the boxer briefs roll up on the leg. But make no mistake, they are indeed form fitting around the lower body. I use these primarily for running, but work just as well for biking with a padded brief underneath. You won’t need to wear shorts over these.Super happy these have two very deep pockets. I have some Baleaf tapered fitted workout pants (they’re probably considered leggings in spirit), and those only have a tiny zipper pocket in back for keys. These leggings you can put a phone on one side and ID plus keys on the other no problem. I kind of wish they had a closure of some sort, but they should be deep enough where nothing is coming out.Those other Baleaf pants I mentioned have a drawstring in the elastic waist, these leggings do not. It’s highly unlikely you’ll miss it here since the leggings hold up very well.Again, the fabric here is a mid weight. They aren’t see through thin, nor are they fleece lined like the other Baleaf pants I have. These leggings will wick sweat well like any good performance fabric.These are true to waist and length. I bought an XXL because I am, bluntly, overweight, but also have naturally muscular legs. These weren’t too long (I’m 6 feet) and end right at my ankles.My personal preference wouldn’t be to lounge around in these, but I could see guys doing that because they are pretty comfortable. I can get them on and off without a struggle.Back to the value proposition, lots of brands charging two or three times what Baleaf is. And Baleaf’s quality control and fabric are just as good. Not sure about long term product longevity or customer service, but everything else adds up to a solid, functional product at a reasonable price point.

Nice, but didn't fit me well
Have bought BALEAF before, and these tights are of the same high quality that I expected. The fabric was substantial - thick, compressive, but soft. Construction was good.Unfortunately, neither size L nor XL fit me well, so I grudgingly returned both pair. I'm 6'2", 196 lbs, 35" waist, and 34" inseam (actual measurements, not clothing sizes).Both sizes had a high rise - I either had to pull them up to an uncomfortable middle spot between my waist and my navel, or wear them lower where my pants usually sit and have the crotch half way to my knees.The size L legs were tight on me, a tad short in the leg, and waist was fine. Size XL legs were better in diameter and length, waist was fine, but front area was baggy. There's just no way to know until you try them on.
