Rainbeau Curves Women's Plus-Size Basix Compression Legging

I just love these tights. They are so comfortable. I wore them under jeans today as it was cold but they are good as they are. I ordered a size too big and they are a touch big, but that's just fine. They are the most comfortable support tights I have ever tried the kept my varicose veins from hurting me today as I did my shopping.An added note: I ordered 1 size too big at first and they were 1 size too big but I kept them to wear around home as they are so comfortable. Then I ordered the correct size and they fit perfectly. They are tight enough for compression for my varicose veins. I will order several more in the future.To update: I have literally worn these every day (I take them off and wash them of course) for about a year and they are still in great shape. I got them a size too big (I have three others the correct size) but I wear these around home and the others when I go out shopping for my varicose veins. Still, these, even though a size too big, still support my legs enough and they are super comfortable.

I would give these 10 stars if I could!! I wear a size 22/24, I have some cellulite in my upper thigh area and my gut isn’t flat like it used to be thanks to a c-section and being a former fast-foodie. I bought these with another brand and these are by far the best leggings I’ve ever worn!!! They are all-over compression leggings and they control my loose tummy, smooth out my cellulite and lift my butt to look like a peach booty!! In these leggings I’m not fat anymore, just big. You can tell just by looking at the shape of them straight out of the package that these are meant for girls with curves. The length is great too. The waist can pull up over passed my belly button by ~3 or so inches (but you don’t have to wear it that high if you don’t want to), and the leg bottoms snuggly cover my ankle and easily rest on the top of my foot (I’m 5’5). The outside leg sides are double seamed (the seams are about 2.5-3 inches apart) and I feel so sporty wearing these. I’m a true fan and I highly highly highly recommend!!!

These are comfy enough but I don't have the compression that I hoped for. I'm pear shaped so to fit my 39 waist and 53 bottom, I purchased 3x. I went out of my comfort zone, posting pics of myself in case it helps some of you gals.The bottom does fit, which is usually a problem I have with most pants. If the waist fits, the bottom is too tight and when the bottom fits, the waist is too loose which is the case with these. But it's the compression or lack of it that disappoints me. I feel some compression in the bottom of the legs but none above the calf and as you can see in the pics, I have heavy thighs and knees that need more support. Going to a smaller size would likely make the bottom too small. I realize that these are listed as 'basix' compression leggings so that is probably what 'basix' means. I'll need to go to another level of legging or thigh high to get the compression that I'm used to in stockings. Otherwise these are definitely wearable as plain leggings, just not the compression that I was hoping for.

These compression leggings are my favorite leggings I have owned. I have them in black and grey. The compression is just strong enough to help my tired legs after a 12hour shift at the hospital. I think its about the same as a pair of 15mmhg compression socks. I could not find anywhere that says the actual compression. The only drawback to these leggings is they don't come in petite/short sizes. I end up with bunched up fabric around my ankle. This is true of almost every brand of leggings though so it's not a deal breaker for me. I found these to be true to size. Typically I wear an 18 or 20 and the 18/20 fits perfectly. I have never found these to be see through and they don't roll down. Truly my favorite leggings.

I have more of an hourglass figure, little big in the hips. Some lymphedema in thigh area, early stages, no swelling from the knee down. I feel like these compress from the knee up, just loose from the mid calf down. They do not sag or pull down in the crouch, like compression hose. I wear them with knee high compression stockings and together they are helping. I was hoping for a little tighter fit for the entire leg. Well made,

I was skeptical at first bc I've never worn leggings in public except for the gym. I got a job where we can't wear pants w pockets & my legs hurt so I figured let's find something that can help with both.Well putting them on was like putting on a wetsuit. Super tight & awkward. I think I was sweating more getting dressed than actually wearing them in 105° heat. (Central California).Once on they were very comfy & didn't show panty lines. I can feel the compression however it's not suffocating. They're not sheer to the point of see thru either. Good quality. The sizing was right on.Hubby liked them but I think it's bc it puts everything back & holds it where it should be lmao. 🤷‍♀️Would definitely buy again.

I bought these leggings for mild compression for lipedema. As soon as I put them on I was in love. They made my legs instantly feel more energized and less painful.I took my measurements before ordering to assure proper sizing. I am 5'6". My waist is 41", hips 48" and thighs 30". I ordered size 2X. I worried they would be too tight, or that the crotch would hit mid-thigh, as I have experienced before with other garments. I need not have worried. These went on like they were made for me and feel so comfy!My husband loves them and calls me, "My beautiful wife!" He told me he wants me to wear them every day. He considers them flattering and thinks I look cuter in these leggings than any other types of pants I have worn in the past, in the effort to hide my huge legs.I am going to be ordering more of these so that I can take care of both my legs and my marriage! Thanks, Rainbeau!!
