Customer Reviews Sweaty Betty Power 7/8 Workout Leggings

I bought the power leggings a while back and only wore them for 3 months. They are very comfortable and fit well but the quality is very poor. I followed all washing instructions and the logo pealed only after 3 times. I stopped wearing ever since because it looks very odd with a pealed logo.

I initially loved these - very comfy, great fabric and pattern, squat proof - but the stitching started to fuzz up and even come loose in one spot after only one wash. Disappointing.

I really was pleased with these when I first put them on but am saddened that after a wash and few wears they seem to have lost their stretch. I'm pretty sure I haven't got suddenly smaller but these feel a bit baggy and now after a handful of wears and very careful washing following delicate instructions :(

Great fit and feel lovely to wear. However, during the workout the sweat patches at the top of my legs and crotch area are very visible which wasn't really what I expected from quality leggings on first wearing. Made more obvious by the plain black option I'd chosen. Yes, it dries quickly after finishing exercising but that's not really the point, I'm heading home then to take them off! Can accept that this eventually happens when leggings have been washed and worn so many times, but not from the start. Customer services were really responsive and said this shouldn't happen and sent a replacement however exactly the same occurred. Maybe I'm extraordinarily sweaty! I guess I'll have to reluctantly relegate these to casual wear and go back to other brands where I've not had this issue. But for non-sweat causing exercise (does that exist?!) these would be amazing, or maybe in a highly patterned design.

These do not fit like the other power leggings I already have. For some reason, these do not fit quite the same. These pucker in a strange way where my "lady parts" are in front. I adjusted and readjusted when trying on but they have a strange excess of fabric. Maybe I need a smaller size but I also found that these sit lower on my waist than the other pair I have and I am afraid that if I size down it will have even less fabric and ride even lower. In any case, I do not love these so they are going back.

I so wanted these leggings and overall the fit was excellent How I would look from behind was irrelevant as the overstitched seam running from the waistband through the crotch leaves nothing to the imagination

I have multiple pairs of the power leggings and I love them but these grey ones were unfortunately just not the same as the rest. The size was off when compared to the others I have (they were bigger when held up together) and although the material said they wer the same they just didn't feel the same on. Maybe the origin of manufacturing (as stated on the leggings) is the cause of the difference. It's very disappointing because I loved the colour and it has now left me weary of ordering the power leggings again whereas before they were a dead cert.

Very disappointed, I've worn them 3 times and they are now covered in balls and look old. They really aren't anything special, completely over rated. Will not buy again.

Very disappointed compared with the leggings I have previously bought. These leggings were much shorter in length and the material did not feel the same quality as previous leggings, so sadly had to return them.

Pants are a good length but material is not sweat wicking and not good for people who perspire.

I have a pair of the power gym leggings in Black Cherry Purple. After one month of use, I am really disappointed, as the fabric is starting to bobble, and they are quite baggy and need to be pulled up constantly. It's a shame, because all of the other reviews are great.

Really like these leggings but sadly I've only worn twice and the thread has unpicked and is faulty in one area so will not be able to wear.

As someone who has always bought (and is still wearing) size S, I was really disappointed that these leggings were just too small and uncomfortable.

Perfect leggings. Look and fit great. But they were faulty

These leggings are very comfortable and thick material however for the price I would not expect them to bobble with one wear even before being washed. This was also pre workout. The bobbling has gotten worse after one wash on a delicate cycle. Very disappointing!!

Just got mine, and the horizontal waist band is only in the back. The front just has a vertical line going all the way to the top. Very unflattering, and not like the picture.

Too pricey for the quality better products in marketing for less

Sadly I didn't like them as keep falling down whilst I exercise

I have had the full length ones for ages and love them although they are a bit too long and have to keep adjusting them and lifting them up. The description says the 7/8 length would be good for 5'4 and under, since I am 5'4 I thought I'd try these out. However they were still extremely short and came up way above my ankles, so therefore has to return them.

Really hoped to love these due to all the good reviews. Great material, colour and look lovely on so was very disappointed to find they rolled down after just three burpees in the gym ... and I'm constantly tugging them up during pilates classes.

I am shocked at how many people seem to like these. I have tried running in these and they ride down constantly! I'm always trying to pull them up, it's uncomfortable and irritating. My Nike tights are so compressing they don't move AT ALL(though they are tricky to get into) but these are just rubbish in comparison. I'll be going back to Nike compression tights I'm afraidand only using these for weights or cycling workouts.

Weird shaping around the crutch which I haven't had on any other SB power leggings. Not sure if this is an old production and the fit has been updated recently.

I bought these leggings based on the amazing reviews of how comfy they were....and your were not wrong - days sat working at my home desk transformed to comfort! Today I went for a run and had a rash around my Lower calf / ankle.... comfy for sitting but not for exercise / sweating

They are lovely but one wash and all the white piping detailing the size and washing instructions is peeling straight off For the money that is charged for these, I expect better and I do hope it isn't the first of a myriad of problems and quality issues.

I always order a small in the power leggings but I could not get these on sadly
