I love these tights. The waistband is snug, but not impossible to get in and off, and everything stays in place while moving. The fabric is a bit on the thicker side, so they are best for cool/shoulder season conditions. Also, the pocket placement is perfect - it holds my phone on my hip and I never feels like the weight of the phone is pulling the tights down. They wick well, are sutures and super comfortable. I only wish they also came in full length tights.

I love these pants! They are a great fit and the pocket is perfect for a phone on my runs. They aren't too hot and don't show the sweat, which is great.

I've been running in the Greenlight 7" shorts all summer and needed something for cooler weather so i bought the capris. These leggings sagged a little at the beginning of a run on a cold morning, but by the time I got completely warmed up and sweaty, they stayed in place and fit like a glove. I possibly could've sized down and that might have fixed the issue. Either way, they're buttery soft and I love them. The pockets are great too.

I'm 5'3" 165 lbs and the capris fit me a bit tight. I bought a large and hopefully they'll be okay for my winter walks.

I'm always looking for the perfect running tights for a race. I am 5'4" and 114 pounds. For Brooks tights, I always order size small but these are a little loose around the waist. I put my iPhone with case in the left pocket and a single key in the right pocket. I went for a 5-mile run, checking every so often to see if my phone was slipping out of the pocket and it never did! It didn't feel like the weight of my phone was pulling my tights down either. The fabric is very soft and comfortable. After my run, I noticed the side with the phone was lower on my waist than the right side but I wouldn't have known if I didn't see it. When I got home, I ordered a size XS to see if it fits better.

Love the capris. Pockets are great: they hold my phone, keys, a couple energy bars, and a pocket knife. I have worn them 2-3 times a week for about 2months and have had no problems with fraying seams. I do wash them in cold water with tide and no fabric softener and hang them to dry. The waist has lost some elasticity so I have added a drawstring, which is the reason for 4 stars and not 5. They do stay up, but they are starting to slip just a tiny bit without the drawstring. I have purchased another pair, as well as the tights for cooler weather. The only thing I would change is adding a drawstring. I would rate 5 stars if they had one.

They are ok. I like the length, and the sides are cute. But they waist is mid-rise, not high and I prefer them to sit higher. The compression isn't as strong as I thought it was going to be.

I have a pair of both the shorts and tights, so I bought a pair of the marbled capris and really expected to love these. Unfortunately, the pattern is printed on white fabric, so when wearing these you can clearly see what you're wearing underneath. Everything else was excellent - great fit, large pockets. But they're unwearable as-is. I'm returning these for now, but will look to get these again if they fix this flaw.

I own both the greenlight shorts and greenlight tights from previous seasons, so I was ready to love these capris. Unfortunately, I chose to order the marbled design. It turns out, the pattern is printed on white fabric. When you put these on, these are very see-through in both the front and the back. All the positives of the greenlight series can't make up for the fact they show off what I'm wearing underneath.
Very disappointed as there is no way I will feel comfortable wearing these. Hopefully they'll stop printing on white fabric in future releases and then maybe I'll try again. For now: returned.

Fit is snug but not uncomfortable. Inside pocket is handy for a key, and the side pockets will hold a phone.

These capris felt great. I wore the xs size. I am 5?4? and weigh 114lbs. I had read some reviews stating that the capri was too compressive and didn?t fit well around the knees. I felt the compression was comfortable and the fit great. I have worn many different brands of running pants over the years and I would rank up with my faves. I liked the ample stash pockets and the waistband.

Numerous runs and workouts in these tights and they hold up great. Great fit, runs TTS, no need to pull or tug during the run or HIT workout. I've worn them with a tunic and boots for dinner - love anything that can multi task. While there isn't a zipper pocket I've never lost anything in the pockets. I usually have my key and a little cash just in case. I'm 5'4" so they are a tad bit longer on me than in the photo shown, hits me more mid to bottom calf.

I love these capri, this is my 3rd pair over several years. This version seems a bit looser, and heavier material. The pockets are a plus. Comfortable, durable, and my faves.

Love these! Lightweight and comfortable, and I love the pocket - perfect for carrying my phone while running! I do wish the mesh wasn't see-through, but it's thick enough that it isn't too revealing. These are very comfortable and stay in=place, even without a drawstring. Love them!

Fantastic fit, highly recommend! They fit snug with a slightly high waistband, and do not move AT ALL while running. Soft, flexible material. Large lateral side-pocket that comfortably holds my iPhone with a case. I'm 5'6'' and 140lb and the medium size fits perfectly.

I love these! I now have the greenlight tights in all lengths. The compression is perfect. Not too tight and not too loose. I love the fact that the waist isn't super tight to make up for lack of compression elsewhere. The fabric is light weight and the pockets deep enough to carry everything you need.
