I was pleasantly surprised by these pants. The high waist is great. I’m not constantly trying to yank them up every time I bend over to pick up a toddler toy (endless task). and the band doesn’t dig into the skin. The material is stretchy but holds its shape well.
I found the panels to be weird (see picture). I expected the see-throughness to be minimal based on the pictures shown above. However, you can very clearly see through them and gives a flesh color appearance not a light grey as in the pictures.
I’m personally not comfortable running to the grocery store in them (and it likely may not bother everyone), but that doesn’t stop me from walking the dogs, playing with the kiddo all day, or jogging in them.
