The Greenlight Capris are my favorite workout leggings by far. They're supportive, they're super comfortable, and the fabric is thick enough to prevent a see-through situation. The side pocket is fantastic - can hold a phone or keys - and the fact that the waistband stays secure during a workout is awesome. Highly recommend.

I already owned one pair of these running capris in navy when I decided to order a second pair in green because I loved my first pair so much. The high waist is perfect - I never have to pull them up during a run (which I have to do with all my other non-Brooks running capris). The pockets work great for holding my phone and keys. I?ll probably end up buying a third pair! :)

These are my absolute favorite running capris! I have multiple pairs and wear them for every training run and race. I am 5' 3", 155 lbs with larger thighs and wear a size L. These don't ride up or down, are high enough on the waist to be flattering, but not so high they are uncomfortable. The fabric is thick, but not hot. I also love the pants and shorts. The best fitting running/exercise pants that I own.

The BEST bottoms you'll ever invest in; capris, tights, or shorts you can't go wrong. You'll want them all.

My go to running capris. I'm a pear shape and I appreciate how the green light line fits comfortably and the waist stays up without slipping at all when you're running.

I purchased the Brooks Greenlight capris from my favorite running store without trying them on. They fit perfectly. I?m 5?5? and about 135 lbs. The waistband felt a little tight as I pulled them up but felt great when I had the pants pulled up and in place - they didn?t give me a muffin top. The fabric is soft, smooth, and not overly thin or thick. They?ll be a good race day pant - lightweight and I don?t notice them on my knees.

I bought a pair in august because I had the beginning of gout. They are very comfortable on my feet. I wear them everyday everywhere. I would love to have another pair.

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.

These are nice running leggings with a pocket that my phone can fit in. They aren?t as soft as some leggings I?ve bought previously - they have a kind of more shiny feel - but they are comfortable to run in!

These are so comfortable and fit great. The pockets on the sides are high enough that my phone doesn't bounce at all during a run, the double pocket means there is room for my key, id, etc so there is no need for extra gear. I don't love the mesh sides but everything else about them is perfect.

I do like them but they got a small tear in the seam after one wash.

Well made and love the pockets. A little pricey but not compared to LuLu so I?ll take these any day! Colors are overly striking but that?s ok.

The capris are comfortable and durable for regular runs and workouts. I'm not a big fan of the side mesh- if they're going to put ventilated mesh on it, I'd rather have it on the back to help with knee-pit sweat, rather than the sides. And while the two large side pockets are nice, esp for outside runs, I miss the front waistband pocket that was perfect for a chapstick. If i put my chapstick in the side pocket, my hand hits it as I run. The back waistband pocket is just a little too awkward for me to put anything in it that I want to access while running. It's fine for a car key that I won't need til I'm done. I'm 5'5" and ~160 lbs and wear the Large, which are snug around the waist due to my pudge, but fit in the legs well.

I love these I have them in black and navy bot you really need to make them in red. Everyone knows red makes you faster and I need them to match my club kit

The waist band is not at all forgiving so size up. The fabric on the pants is soft but the waistband is lined with a different fabric which creates compression. I have a short torso so the unforgiving compression is not comfortable for me. I?m 5?3? 130# and the medium is a bit too tight on my mid section. Some people may like that, but it is not comfortable for me.

Very soft. Don?t love where they land on my waistline, which in turn makes them fall down a bit at the beginning of a run. 2 pockets! I don?t mind the mesh on the sides, it isn?t really that revealing.

I really like the look and feel of these leggings. I went for my first run (13 miles) in them last week and was disappointed that the waist band bounced around the whole time. The leggings didn't slide down but the waist moved around a lot. I think maybe I am in between sizes. I got the small at 5'2" 112 pounds.

A friend of mine told me these were the holy grail of running capris, so I figured it was worth a shot. They are fabulously soft and I love the idea pockets, but unfortunately, the fit isn't great. I used the size chart and ordered a large (I'm 5'6, 155 lbs) and while they fit fine most places, the waist is a bit too big. As a result, when I put my phone in them, they slip down and I spent pretty much my whole run trying to hike them back up. Perhaps women who are less curvy will fare better with these, but unfortunately, I just spent a lot of money on pants that I can wear around the house but not for running.

Overall fine tights. A bit too loose in the waist without an inner drawstring. Once you sweat in them a bit they stay up better. Probably wouldn't buy again at this price point.

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.
