Defender Men’s Compression Baselayer Running Tights Defender Sports

★★★★★ So I wanted to wear these training pants a few times plus wash them at least a couple time before I reviewed. First of all out of the package they felt pretty good in hand. Very stretchy, nice fabric, not too thick but not too thin. For guys, you can probably wear them with out shorts, I prefer to layer a pair of shorts on top. The color is what is presented on the picture, very nice grey with white piping. The fit is as expected, I am shorty/stalky person 5'5" 200lbs, power-lifter body type. Having said that the mediums on the waist on me felt perfect, with my short legs, the length is about an inch, inch and half longer than what I would prefer, but I cant blame the pants for my short inseamed legs. After a couple washing's the pants look and feel the same. I typically don't dry my work out clothes with this type of material all the way, I kind of hang dry them after the initial 90% dry, if that makes sense and these pants do not shrink. The thick waist band stays in place and does not "roll over" like other brands I have tried and own. The seller offers many other color schemes and I will definitely be back to purchase some more compression pants and tops.

★★★★☆ I got these to wear underneath my shorts when working out, or just to wear as a second layer. Since the weather is getting colder I can also just wear these by itself going to bed or just around the house. Overall they are just comfortable to wear for any occasion. They are not really designed for insulating heat, but quite the opposite. Since they are specifically made for fitness as compression leggings, they are very breathable. For the price the quality is ok, thin but not too thin, Soft and breathable. But what i appreciated the most about these was the quality of the elastic waist band. Thick and the quality of the band is comparable with the expensive big name brand compression leggings. For sizing, in my personal opinion. Believe that they come a little bigger than its true size. Im 180lb 5'9, a little chubby=] and was debating between L & Xl and went with a XL, because i didn't want the L to be way to small at the waist and thighs, and butt, and had to consider leggings are supposed to conform to your body. The Xl fit well but for being compression leggings i expected to fit some what skin tight. They were kind if loose/big around the legs. I think a Large woudve fit much nicely. But in general i like them and think they are soft and stylish with the red accents, and the price is great. I do plan on buying them again in the future with their many different color options. The company seems to really consider your experience with your purchase and item, they personally send you a follow up email after you receive your purchase to see if you were satisfied or dissatisfied with the pruduct by leaving you some info if you ever wanted to return your item directly, making the process a little easier.

★★★★★ I LOVE these pants! I am a woman, 5'4" and about 140lbs, with muscular legs. I was hoping for a good fit and the transparency of these to be minimal, needing this particular color for an upcoming race. The smallest I could get in the orange was small, but with these being a Prime eligible product I was not concerned placing the order, knowing I could return easily. They arrived right on time and were the perfect shade! The fit is good, even though I could probably size down to and Xsmall, for better compression. Although they are cut for men, I did not find them to fit oddly on me. I bought them specifically for running my half marathon, but actually upgraded after a weather cancellation to a full marathon and could not have been happier with the performance of these pants. I have bookmarked the other listings on these pants in other colors because now I know exactly what I will be ordering when I have a need for new running pants in particular hues.
