What customers are saying: One person said, "Do you have leggings that bunch up around your knees or ankles? Do you struggle to find jeans that fit your waist AND fit your thick thighs? Do you have to roll up your jeans? Buy these leggings. The length is perfect for shorter athletes and gym rats like myself, and has enough give in the material to let out room for my legs without causing gaping and rolling down on the waistband. The extra thick waistband helps control and hold so you can get nasty on your deadlifts with ease and they look cute while doing it so you can drop in for a smoothie with friends afterwards. The thick stitching on the seams leads me to believe that these are durable and worth the price."

Why we love them: If you're looking for a classic black training legging, these are a great option to have. They've got the same shaping properties as other members of the Elation family, but are built for more sweaty activities.
