I purchased these about a week ago because i love the Spanx brand. Unfortunately, these did not meet the bar. The leggings were torn in the crotch by the end of the first day of wear. Another friend of mine who purchased these had the same problem in the same time frame. They do a great job of tummy control if you need mild control, but don't expect long term use from these. You'd be better off getting a regular pair of leggings and some high waist control spanx.
