These are great- to layer. They're not meant to be worn as pants, so don't try it. I bought them to wear under other pants in cold weather. For size reference, I'm 5'5", 125 lbs, size 2 jeans. The small fits great. They might deserve 5 stars but I'm giving them 4 because I've been trying to replace some similar leggings that I bought about 6 years ago, super cheap, at some random teen store that are the perfect layering leggings. I wear them constantly, fall through spring, and they don't snag, pill, run, stretch, bag, or pull on my other clothes. They're still good as new, but I want more like them. These No Nonsense are close, but not quite. The material is more like opaque tights, and I can't see them holding up as well. They also start to tug my other pants down after a while, and don't fit quite as second-skin as my others. For the price, they're still a nice, invisible, soft layer that helps me stay warm. They're just not as perfect as my others, so I'm holding them to that standard. I'll probably get another pair anyway, since they're the closest I can find.
