YummieWomen's Rachel Shaping Legging Cotton Stretch

Finally 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.

I got a second pair. Comfortable looks great and thick and not sheer at all can wear in warm and cold weather because cotton is breathable. Control top was perfect for postpartum belly.

My favorite cotton leggings. True to size I recommend for those who want good hold but not an athletic feel or look. Love this I have like 10 pairs! Downside is the my are see through if you do a full mom bend over /

I’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.

I have been buying Yummie products for years. I first found them on a home shopping channel. These leggings are substantial, have very nice compression, and have a high cotton content making them more comfortable to me and a nice alternative to most leggings that are mostly polyester.

I love how these fit and they're really comfortable. But their price is too high for the quality. The first pair i ordered lasted three years! Amazing! The second pair? The inseam split in 3 months.

The best

I can't even tell you how many pairs of these I've bought over the years. I have them in every color they come in, with pockets, without pockets, full length, and crop. They are comfortable while still providing the extra support for my midsection that I'm looking for. I don't find that they ride down too much (I'm not constantly pulling them up like I am with other leggings I've tried). The material is thick, and not see-through at all. Over time I find that the inner thigh pills and will eventually open at the seam, but this is after a TON of daily use, and I'm heavier set with thicker thighs that do a lot of rubbing, so I don't fault the design for that. I usually need to replace them after a year or so of wearing them 3-4 times a week. I'll be honest and say that I run these through the dryer on delicate just to save time, and I haven't had any issues with shrinking or the legs shortening. I cannot recommend these enough!! 10 stars if I could!
