From earlier reviews, I knew not to expect these to be the thick cotton yoga pants that one would expect.  But these are incredible - and perfect timing.  They are thinner and silky and so soft.  I have fibromyalgia and there are days where I cannot tolerate anything against my skin.  These are for those days.  I love the purple color too.  As bad luck would have it, right after I received these, I developed shingles.  I cannot handle anything against my skin...except for these pants and a satin night shirt.  I wish I had a dozen pairs of these.  For those of us with fibro though, these are the ultimate bad fibro day pants to wear.  Also - I am 5'10 and they are the perfect length.  Im so grateful to have these.
