Customer Reviews Sweaty Betty Power 7/8 Workout Leggings

I have skinny ankles, although I'm size 14. These leggings are perfect in every way except they're a bit big on the ankles - it doesn't *show* but they slip upwards after a while which my other SB leggings don't. Still fab though. :)

love love love them... price justified for sure. Used to be only lululemon lover, but now moving to SB

Great leggings for yoga/workout, love the pocket. Nice fabric, not too thick but supportive and down dog proof! Bought the dark green for a change from black, lovely colour more 'dark khaki' than Forest

I was very happy to discover the pocket! I have an older version of these leggings that don't have them. Very comfortable fit.

Super comfortable but not as much compression as I had hoped for.

I bought these for running/gym/hiking. They're very comfy and i don't have any awkward see through moments! They are a little large though and need pulling up- I'm normally a size 14 & bought a large.

Looking forward to wearing my new leggings, I have had them before! ! They are so comfy and fit very well.

Have always worn zero gravity leggings from SB but just didn't like any of the new patterns (please bring back the Japanese blossom print!) so decided to try the power leggings. They're still a great fit, really comfortable and are softer than the zero gravity but they don't sculpt to the same extent. They are pretty similar though, if the ZG sculpting is a 10 these are probably an 8!!! Also, the blue mystical floral pattern has little bits of neon peach going through it which you don't really see in the photos, I'm not the biggest fan of anything neon, had thought it would be a softer coral colour but keeping them anyway because I was desperate for workout wear during lockdown! Overall pretty happy with them, the 7/8 length is great, they are squatproof and the waist doesn't fall down.

These are very thick, absolutely squat-proof, extreme holding-you-in leggings. The thickness of the fabric makes them too hot for summer, and the very high waistband does roll down during yoga, but they look extremely smart as a great everyday lounge wear addition or cosy leggings to run in over winter.

I loved these 7/8 leggings as I'm a shorter girl and finding ones that fit me right have been difficult, so these have been my go-to leggings over the past few years. However, I do question the quality of the ones I've bought more recently last year as both of them have holes or the thread is unravelling - which never has happened before. What's happened? These aren't cheap so expecting better quality.

These leggings are ok. I was expecting more for the price. The waist band is not very high, would have preferred it to be higher to feel more secure when exercising.

Good quality, well made, not see through, wash poor

The fit of the leggings is great and the pockets are handy for running but I found they bobbled after a few washes and it makes the quality look cheap when they're expensive.

Sweaty Betty Power leggings have been my go to for a few years now. Great fit every time and they stay put in the gym. But unfortunately the last 2 pairs I've bought have ended up with holes in them pretty soon after purchase. I don't know if they've changed the fabric or manufacturer but they just seem to rip so easily. It's such a shame as they've been my go to

Having ordered power leggings previously, I was hoping to re-stock with some more. However, the fit and length has changed (I have ordered the Embossed and usual Power and both have the same issue). There are not as stretchy as the previous one I purchased and the width of the ankle is very small and tight (I have thin legs and ankles). They are also around 2 inches shorter than my last pair of Power leggings (standard length ordered). I am really disappointed that they have been changed as they were my go-to for walks, sport, etc. I have ordered the all day leggings which are a great fit and very comfortable but not as tough or warm as my old Power ones.

Good fit but I wanted the same thickness as the Super Sculpt and these are thinner material, so had to return

I'm not sure what has changed in these leggings, but they are super tight at the waist now. They give me a muffin top and cut into me. I'm 5'3", athletic and weigh 144lbs. I've always worn size small. I find myself grabbing my Zella leggings over these. The band is just too tight.

One of my favorite workout tops was from this brand, so I wanted to try leggings. I love the lightweight fabric of these leggings. I also appreciated that the waistband stayed right in place during cardio and weight training. Unfortunately, I had fit issues. I am 5'2 and ordered the 7/8 as a full length product. This was fine, but I had significant camel toe issues. I wanted them to perform better for me than they did.

I usally love the power leggings, but the black ones I ordered had really narrow openings at the ankles. I went in store to try a different pair on, but they were similar. Not sure if the material on the black leggings is different or the batch was just cut smaller, but I've got a load of pairs in the same size and this was the only time I've had an issue! I exchanged in store for a grey pair and these are great.

Good quality workout leggings but no better than the ones for a third of the price on the high st

I got a pair of navy power leggings as a Christmas present from hubby, I request these every year as a treat, but I feel the quality of this new pair is not nearly as good as previous one. They are very thin and pretty much see through, more like thick tights than leggings, very disappointed as my last navy pair were my favourite leggings . Has there been a change in material ? I wanted these to wear to pilates class but they are so thin I think I would be very self conscious so I'll only be wearing them at home, probably buy a cheaper but thicker pair elsewhere. Please change back

Good quality material, nice fit. Unfortunately they slip down during exercise which is annoying! Yet to find the holy grail of work out gear that stays put!

Comfortable sweat wicking material, very flattering but sadly stitching at the bum came loose after 2 wears.

I expected more. Unfortunately, after the first use, threads came out of the seams. The design is not bad. I like the ability to adjust the waist.

Lovely feel but I am 5'2" and bought 7/8 leggings to wear as full length as advised. My legs must be longer than an average 5'2" as my leggings have to be massively stretched
