Perfect for summer

“These Capris are my favorite summer pants. They are comfy, light weight and easy care at a reasonable price. They do not shrink. I am short, 5'2", so they hit me mid-calf. I have them in all three colors, but gray is my favorite. I wear a pair of these leggings practically every day and always pack one or two pairs when I travel. I weigh 130 lbs. The medium is not too loose and not too tight, which is perfect for looks and comfort. I highly recommend these leggings.,” wrote one five-star reviewer.

Size and fit

“I'm on my quest to losing weight and getting in shape and just got a treadmill and wanted something that wasn't loose to work out in. These leggings are perfect! They are SO comfortable and my husband loves them on me! I'm going down in sizes so I wasn't sure which size to get. Other reviewers had said to get the smaller if you weren't sure and they were right. I got Large and they fit perfectly. I'm sorta in between large and xl right now and these were perfect. Highly recommend them! I plan on buying more!.,” shared one satisfied shopper.

So comfortable

“I purchased 4 leggings as a recommendation from a friend. I absolutely love the comfort and fit. The comfort would have to be my number 1 reason for purchasing. The cost is extremely reasonable as well. I work out at the YMCA approx. 5 times per week and need good leggings that are durable and comfortable. I would highly recommend this purchase to anyone who needs some good workout clothes!,” said one happy customer.
