Customer Reviews CW-X Stabilyx Joint Support 3/4 Compression Tights

These pants are well worth the price. If you are a runner, these are a must. I would love to get more!

Love these tights. These are my first pair of these and would highly recommend them. Very comfortable and I love that they keep 'everything in place'.

I was having a hard time recovering from a hip injury so I wanted to give these a try. I had my first painless run in over a month. Highly recommend!

This is the second pair of these tights I've gotten... I love them! I wear a size medium, and the fit is perfect. They're a little hard to get on sometimes, but once you're wearing them it's super comfortable. I wear these to yoga, soccer practice, and running.

I really like these capris, yes, they are pricey, but anyone that knows good workout apparel knows that it is par for the course. The first time I wore what are essentially full compression pants, it felt like they weighed me down. After that, I was hooked. I know they help my lower back and probably other areas, but I wasn't able to say 100%. Good buy, especially for people who run. (4 stars for style because I don't like drawstrings personally.)

Love these! Lots of knee support & leg compression. I wear them for workout only though. I have found if I try to run too many errands while still in them by the time I get around to changing I can't wait to get them off. I would love to have them in a XL to wear them around the house for chores for the support but not quite as much compression.

Love! Will definitely buy again. They do fit like a second skin but they really do feel good and your legs feel great while running.

I ordered these after I ran a full marathon and they are the best running tights I have ever encountered. I have multiple half marathons and races coming up this spring and I will be wearing CW-X for all of them! Perfect compression and support for running on multiple terrains and alleviated soreness!

I love these tights, but wish they came in petite sizes so the knee support would hit me knee, not lower. I found they run true to size. I ordered up based on other reviews and had to return them for a smaller size.

The capris were great. I got them for a half marathon and they really helped with fatigue. They are super comfortable and offered great support!

These fit true to size. I love the color. The compression is nice,while they are also soft.Most make me itch these didn’t.

These capris are very supportive. I had to get use to the feel of the stitching. They are tight, but not uncomfortable.

These run small, but they are supposed to in order to offer support. I loved the colors! I have another pair of these in the longer/warmer version too. They do tend to slide down a little when running, so you have to cinch down the drawstring pretty tight which is a bummer.

About a year ago I had hurt my hip running, so usually after my runs my hip is fatigued. When I run and wear these pants, my hip doesn't feel like it has never been hurt. These pants also provide some support in the knees. The only thing I am not fond of is the legs are a little long but I am 5'3", so this is not uncommon for me. The pants are a little difficult to get on but worth it.

I have only used once, but they feel great. Not too tight. Think may have decreased fatigue in legs and helped with knee stability. A little tight on back of knees at first but resolved after wearing for a while.

Mostly I love these. I'm 5'8" generally wear a size 8 or 10 in pants. These are really comfortable, no problem getting them on! The styling is flattering. However, no useful pocket for a key or pass. I run so I like having a pocket for my phone, but the pocket on these is very small with no closure. I think this is a tragic fail of such great running pants. I sweat my running has improved! Mostly I think because the compression fit makes my legs feel great. Could just be my imagination, but I've worn them several times and still think that. They have a drawstring, but they are so tight fitting, they don't really need it. I won't bother returning because of the pocket, but I won't order another either.

The only issue I have with these are the fit. Based on the size chart, which I know tends to be a "general guideline," I should buy a small, which fit pretty well and are comfortable, but when I'm working out or jogging the thigh and knee area seem a little too big. The "x stitching" slide down around my knees and I keep having to adjust that area. However, I ordered an XS in the ankle length Pro tights and everything fit perfectly except for the butt area! I read on the CW-X FB page that someone had an issue with the butt seam ripping in the middle of a run, so that's the only thing that went through my mind as as I considered if I'd keep the XS's or not. Kind of frustrating that I have to make that decision, but it's not CW-X's fault that I have a big butt. Even though they don't fit optimally, I still get a lot of benefit from wearing these. I had hip surgery in December and have had constant discomfort in my hips and lower back and minimal sensation or response (and therefore strength) in my left leg - these tights make all the difference! No back or hip pain when I'm wearing them! My left leg also feels strong again (I guess because the quads are so well supported). I'm such a fan of these tights and if the discretionary funds would allow it I'd have more than the two pairs I have. (Well, will have. I'm exchanging the the XS's for a pair of the ankle length Stabilyx's in a small. I just wish they had solid black ankle length Stabilyx's!) Despite the sizing vs. genetics issues I will continue buying these tights. I've only tried the Pro and the Stabilyx, and I feel that the Stabilyx offers more support for my needs. Zappos is so amazing - I think you owe it to yourself to order a pair and just walk around your house and see if they are for you. I had to hurry upstairs for something and my legs felt so secure and strong (my left leg did not feel as though it would give out), and if you've ever had any nerve issues below the waist you know what a blessing that is! Seriously, these tights are fantastic!

The fit was tight. As should be for stability running gear.Not the fit I wanted. I could see through the material just holding up to light.

These are very supportive & seem to be high quality, but do not fit correctly if you are shorter. I am 5'4" and the supportive bands do not hit where they are intended. I wish they were available in petite.

I love these but they don't hold up. They got holes in them after about 3 times wearing them. The same happened in the longer version. Really expensive and not worth it, poorly made. I won't be buying these again.

This tight has great features. However, if you are petite, your knees won't hit the area on the tight designed to support your knees. I am 5'1 and my knees weren't even close to where they should have been in these pants!

I like the concept, but these were so tight just under my knee they cut off my circulation, so am returning.

This isn't so much about the tights (I have a pair of long CW-X tights and like them a lot) but more about Zappos. This is the first time I've had a negative experience, I'm just so surprised! I ordered these tights on Thursday and received them today. As soon as I opened the box I could smell laundry detergent. They had clearly been worn and washed, the tie around the waist was very badly frayed on the ends and there were no tags attached. I ordered a small and this was an extra small. I so surprised that Zappos would send me a used item when I paid full price!
