I own a few Under Armour tights, and the material is the same. The waistband is not what I thought it would be - the actual elastic is very thin, and only goes around the very top of the tights, even though it looks as if it's the entire wide panel going down to where it's sewn. I've only tried it on, so not sure how it's going to sit when I'm running, but I think it's going to have a tendency to roll down. Also, there is no issue with sheerness, and it's thick enough that you can't even see the outline of my thong. The length is shorter than most capris from other brands - it hits just below my knees.

These are fantastic. They're truly all-around leggings -- I use them for yoga, spin, and running. The rise is pretty high which works for me, and they stay up when you run. I'm ordering a second pair!

Perfect! I bought these to wear in a spartan race (very muddy / swimming involved / crawling over rocks) and they worked very well. They kept me warm and dry (they dried very fast), stayed in place well and were comfortable the whole time. They will be great for regular work lots too. Love them! I usually wear an xs but tried both the xs and s because of the reviews. Ended up keeping the s. I am 5'4" / 125 lbs.

I really like this capris, light, comfy, don't show off sweat and dry fast. I use them for group classes. The only bad thing is that the seam from the back moves to the side of the butt and in the middle of the class how am I going to fix it every minute in front of people?! I went to a store and tried a smaller size and they were perfect, no moving of anything. I normally use size M but in this I will buy my second pair in Small. For reference I'm 5'4 curvy, 134lb.

Great pants! I'm 5 ft, 129 pounds and got a med. I think they fit perfect even though I think a small would fit as well. They are tight and comfy. Great running or workout pants.

Best workout pants I own! The length is perfect and they don't fall down while running, which was a problem I kept running into with other workout pants. They are extremely comfortable and the material is very breathable. I also think they give a slimming effect because of the cut of the leg. They are also not see-through. I have only good things to say about this product and would recommend it to anyone.

These are my go-to capris for all activities at the gym. I use them for spin (indoor cycling), kickboxing, yoga, strength training and elliptical training. These are the only capris I own that I don't tug and pull into place during my workout, and this includes other capris I own by Under Armour. I came back today to order two more pair. I like that the fabric is slick because my shirts fall nicely over the waist and hips without bunching up. It may be strange but I think it makes me look slimmer. The fabric is not see through at all. I think the other review got a defective pair. I've washed mine lots and not had any problems.

Great for working out - I hate buying a pair of "workout" tights/capris only to find that they fall down when you run. These fit great and stay put!

I'm 5'7 or 5'8 140 lbs and I bought these in a medium. Size was great, nice material, not see-through and comfortable. Unfortunately these are going back due to the length. These did not hit me mid calf like shown on the model; they were knee length. Exchanging for something with a longer inseam.

I'm 5'8" and about 145lbs. I ordered a medium and it fits just right. I'm a slim person, with exception to a little bit of belly fat (I do love my lattes!). The only reason why I'm mentioning this is because the ladies must know that if you're stretching and bending over during your workouts then the the top part will adjust and roll down a tad. It's not the pants fault! If you feel like this is a deal breaker, then you may want to find super-high-maternity-style waists or even a low cut alternatives. They have a little bit a Spanx/compression hose feel to them. I think they feel good on and I tend to wear them under shorts or loose capri sweats during the winter. They're a shiny type of fabric, but looks perfectly normal in a workout environment. Good quality, too! I did the "thinness test" and I can't see through it in my bedroom lighting. I refuse to do the test in front of the gym mirror. Someone may find brighter lighting will reveal more - not sure without trying it myself. Overall, I like them a lot and have worn and washed them at least 8-10 times. Still in good shape!

I'm 5'7, 145lbs and the M 8-10 fit perfectly. They are tight fitting but will be great for running and not stretch out or become too loose. They are shiny and look great overall!

Based on the picture of the model, I thought these pants went down to at least mid-calf. Unfortunately, they only came to just below my knee, which is not the style I was looking for. Also didn't like how shiny the material is.

I liked these but didn't love them. The fabric is super smooth and slippery so they're a little difficult to wear for spinning - my butt slips around on the seat a little bit. They're also really high waisted so that I end up having them pulled up over my belly button. But they are comfortable to wear otherwise.

I love UnderArmour and these capris are no exception. My only comment is that they are a bit shorter than most comparable capri's just barely covering the knee. I would prefer them a bit longer, but not enough that I returned the three pair I purchased. Otherwise, they run true to size and have the right amount of spandex (Elastane) to give a nice comfy compression to my muscles that I like.I especially love the sleek, smooth, silky feel of the fabric.

In love! Same predictable, reliable UA material. If you want a cotton type, this isn't it, they're truly the classic UA spandex. They're nice and thick though, not for warmth, but even when stretched they don't become opaque. I wear them mostly for just lounging around but will wear to cooler sports practices.

The sizes displayed online don't match up with the sizes listed on the website. I ordered a S/M and when it arrived the inside tag read S/P. I had to re-order and get the M/L which was in fact when it showed up labeled inside the clothing as a S/M.

I really love these! The fabric is thick enough to allow for full coverage and has a bit of a sheen to it. Unlike cotton, lint or dog hair does not stick to these! The fit provides light compression and is very slimming where it matters most. I'm 5"8 and 135lbs. The medium fit great.

I LOVE these capris. I am short (5'2) so did not have a problem w the length like other reviewers. They come about 2 inches below my knee and don't move. The top fits perfect and does not roll down even when you sit! These have way more of the "compression" factor than the Nikes. These almost for like Spanx which I love because they make your butt look FAB. The "sheen" reviewers referred too wasn't an issue for me. Its no more shiny than any other elastic pants. I mean unless you only buy cotton its going to have a bit of shine to it. I am 125 lbs and ordered a small. I will be ordering another pair.

My search is over! I finally found a pair of pants that do not roll down! Now I can actually continue doing burpees and jumping jacks without having to stop continuously to pull my pants back up. I'm 5'7 and about 145 and the Medium fits perfectly. I've tried Nike compression capris which are pretty good but these UA ones are far superior.

I was having trouble finding a pair of running capris that would stay up without constantly having to pull them back up. These fit like a glove and are perfect and comfortable. I weight 140 lbs. and I am 64" tall. I ordered a size medium. They are tight but exactly what I was looking for. Zappos makes shopping easy and returning is so simple.

I love them. They stay up! I have a relatively small waist compared with my hips and work-out capris tend to fall down unless they sit at my waist. These sit a little lower but they don't fall down or roll down or anything. They have some compression and they feel really good. I'm buying another pair now. I wish they also made them above the knee for warmer weather.

I love these. I never have to pull them up while working out and I love that they are not see through when stretched. I'm buying a second pair with a longer inseam. It would be great if UA would make tights with really long inseams. I'm 5ft 11in and these hit barely past my knees. I was hoping they would fit me like they do on the model in the picture. The quality fit and fabric make up for it though.

I love these! I got a medium (5'7", 140 lbs) and they fit very nicely. The material is thin and breathable but still offers a reasonable amount of protection from the cold and wind and is not at all see-through. They're definitely flattering, although the waist is a little bit high and kinda throws off your upper body proportions if you're just wearing a sports bra. Once I start running, they do bunch up a little bit under the knee and don't look quite as long as they do on the model, but it isn't uncomfortable at all. It's more of an aesthetic issue for people who prefer the look of longer capris. I purchased a pair of Nike Legend 2.0 cropped pants after this and despite being more expensive, I find the Nike ones to fit much less like a second skin than these Under Armour ones.

My favorite workout pants. They are soft, silky, feel like a second skin (they are so lightweight), wick away sweat and they actually stay up when you run/jump! Love the wider waistband; it's a really flattering fit and gives you a nice silhouette. Great pants. I would say if you are in between sizes, go down, as they are very stretchy and if you want a more compressing fit, go down. Fantastic pants!
