I decided to try these running tights in XL after experiencing multiple other size XL on the market which were too small for my large frame. I am getting back into shape after baby, and have 60 lb. to lose. It is very disheartening to feel squished into workout wear. These are a dream! The fit is roomy...the legs are a teeny bit too long (I'm 5'10") which I love, and there is no tightness anywhere else on my body. Very flexible, sleek, and comfy. This simple change in my workout wear has improved my attendance at the gym and desire to exercise and regain my slimmer shape. I will definitely purchase my next pair from Danskin as well!
