Priced to make you think they are something specialI might have kept these if they were $30 but I can’t justify spending $60 on basic cotton leggings. The #1 issue is that they are quite sheer, not only is the panty line obvious but you can also clearly see the colour variation between your legs and underwear. At this price I was expecting to be able to wear these leggings as pants not stockings. The second issue was the lack of compression, I wear a 10-12 in jeans and ordered a large and they hug my stomach like maternity pants – there is no compression, so I guess size down? but then you might as well buy shapewear since it would probably do a better job and you have to wear these under clothes anyway.
They are a nice satiny cotton and appear to have solid stitching but so do my 6 year old leggings from Garage that cost 20 bucks.

Better than SpanxFinally found the perfect leggings! Size up one size from what you usually buy as everything in this brand except the underwear runs really small. I bought these leggings after watching a Youtuber compare different leggings that she wore postpartum. These were her favorite, and now they’re mine too. I had just bought and returned some Blanqi leggings that felt like I’d just put on a pair of tights. Last year I bought and returned the Zella live in leggings as they did nothing for me and it felt like wearing scuba gear. I have some Pink Rose leggings that are extremely soft and look nice, but don’t provide any sort of compression or tummy coverage. I have the Spanx faux leather leggings and, while they are quite good, these Yummie leggings are better. First the material is nice and soft, yet thick and opaque. I had my 4th baby last year and this covers my mom tum perfectly and never rolls down like the Spanx will sometimes do. They’re high waisted and have just the right amount of compression that isn’t constricting , yet holds things together nicely. Since buying these leggings, I’ve proceeded to purchase 2 more pairs of these, 3 pairs of the ankle length ones that are otherwise identical to these, some Yummie underwear, and a Yummie compression tank. The Yummie underwear are true to size and amazing. They’re soft, stretchy, and make it feel like you have nothing on, yet still provide compression. The Yummie tank top, I sized up in and it’s still tiny. It looks like it would fit my 8 year old, and honestly it probably actually would. I understand the idea is compression, but it’s a little extreme with the tank. That said, aside from the tiny tank, I’ve been very pleased with Yummie and can’t wait to try more products in the brand’s lineup.

Buying these in every color!I’ve been looking for cotton leggings that stay up and these are it! The quality is visible right out of the package & I would highly recommend. Material is thick but soft and waistband is wide with support but no digging. Will be placing an order for more colors, very happy with my purchase.

My new favesI’ve tried 8 million types of leggings. I just got these and I’m obsessed 😍 they are EVERYTHING I was looking for. Tummy control, super soft, not to thick/thin, doesn’t do the roll down, not see through, so comfortable! I only wish they have more colors. These are my new wear whenever clean.

Sturdy fabric, supportive fitI’m going back to school in my 30s, which obviously led me to leggings-as-pants jealousy- somehow every 19 and 20 year old has at least one great pair of non-see-through black leggings. Now, I haven’t made it into the rec center in my time on campus, so I don’t have a 19-year-old’s body. Usually leggings slide down on me if they’re not good quality and a little big high-waisted. I also get a bit of a muffin roll in unkind pants.
I’ve tried leggings that go for over $100 before, but, while they were pretty nice, maybe not enough for the price. I found these after a quick google search for “best black leggings.” The article recommended these in particular in the tummy support category. They also recommended ordering a size up.
On to proper reviewing:
Sizing: I’m usually a 29 in jeans or a L in pajamas and lounge pants. I got an extra large in these.
Opaque: yes! Fabric feels thick- not to the point of being too warm on a moderately nice day. Probably could be nice for yoga. I’m not sure how the fabric performs compared to leggings advertising performance fabrics. It feels heavy on the cottony end of the cotton/poly/spandex blend of most leggings, but with enough synthetics to bounce back.
Fit: overall, snug without being spanx or a true compression tight. No slipping down in the thighs. A secure hug kind of feel in that area. The waistband itself was a bit looser. It still gives me a tummy control effect because it’s a thick smooth fabric over that area, but it wasn’t necessarily squeezing that area in like women’s garments like to say they will. Because of the waist, I’d consider sizing down if I decide to order another pair, but I would be worried about the thighs being too tight in that case. I also noticed that the back of the waistband seems lower than the front. If I wore crop tops, I’d be slightly worried about the back of the waist showing too much if I was sitting or bending over. This could also possibly be fixed with a tighter fit in the waist, which could just be a size or body proportion issue. I’m about 5’6”, and length is usually not a huge issue for me with leggings, and these, like most, were just fine in this area.
Quality/value: overall, these really feel sturdy and useful for anything from loungewear to part of a cute put-together outfit to yoga wear. They came packaged on a paperboard sleeve like they would be displayed in the “accessory” section of a store, which is usually a red flag for me, but I’m pretty impressed with them. Presuming they keep their fit and shape, they seem like an excellent choice for their price range and I’d definitely consider buying them again.

CompressionThese are unbelievable, especially for the price I paid on a Black Friday Deal! The material is quality, thick, black out. The level of compression is amazing, it totally smooths you out in all the right places, making these very flattering for working out, as they stay in place, or for everyday wear.

Every pair rips at the inside seems.These are my favorite leggings ever. I literally cannot wear anything else. Best fit, super tummy control, nice fabric, they just feel great on. I’ve bought 4 pairs on Amazon and 4 pairs in the store.
Unfortunately ALL of them rip at the inside seems. Some have lasted for up to a year and the last pair I bought ripped at the seems after only a month. Very disappointing. I’ve never had other brands come apart at the seems so it’s very frustrating. Also the price has fluctuated dramatically on Amazon can be anywhere from 32-55$ depending on the day. Literally yesterday was $53 and today for the same size and color is $45. WTH!?

Exactly what I want for a casual leggingI keep re-buying this legging. It’s got a super high waist. It’s not shiny. It’s a cotton-blend, which I always prefer. If I could change one thing, I wish it was a deeper, darker black like so many all polyester leggings. Just wore on international fight, both arriving and departing and couldn’t be happier…

ComfortableSlightly more see through than previous pairs I have bought, think they are a slightly different design, but still comfortable and do the job needed.
