Very smooth and comfortable and they stay in place through workouts (Boxing, HIIT, Running) They also make your legs/butt look great. I bought two pairs and then came back to buy two more.😂 I bought XS-- I'm 5'5" 120lbs with a 32" inseam and 27" waist 36" hip. Maybe in the future, Kyodan could make different inseam lengths? Would love if these (and every single other brand of) leggings actually went down to my ankles all the way. For the price point though, I'm very impressed and happy with these.
