    Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression Capri Tights:

    When I first received these in the mail and I took them out of the package I thought I wasn't going to like them and have to return them. I'm not a capri lover to begin with but wanted to give a pair a try. So I tried them on and still thought nah...these aren't for me. But the next day I decided to give them a fair shot and go for a run in them. Well, I ended up loving running in them! They felt great the entire run. They stay in place perfectly with no chaffing whatsoever. They are the perfect length and tightness without being too tight. I am so happy I kept them. These are now my favorite to run in!

      Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression Capri Tights:

      I tried these on and was quite disappointed. The mesh inserts ended up binding and digging around my leg (above and below back of the knees), despite my having bought a size up from what I normally might. The rest of the pant fit, and bordered on loose - I definitely had to cinch the drawstring in to fit snuggly at my waist. I have a smaller waist and curvy hips and thighs. Maybe these are great if you have thinner legs, but avoid them if you're built more like me! I have a pair of full length tights from RRS with the back of the knee mesh insert, and those are quite comfortable, so I'm not sure what happened here.

        These are wonderful! I have the pants version and like these even better! They're super comfortable and I wear them all the time. What I like about the capri version is that there aren't any zippers at the bottom of the leg.

        Note- if you want less compression, buy the size that goes with your measurements. I got these a size smaller so they'd be better-performing for increasing blood flow back to the heart during running, and I love the support!

          I bought a pair when I was picking up a race packet at a RoadRunner store and they have quickly become my favorite capris for running or the gym. A great fit with no bagging. They do run slim, but for me this works great.

          I like these pants, they just feel a little bit tighter than I like. I feel like they restrict movement at my knee. I usually wear a size small but maybe I should have tried the medium for these

          Love these for their comfort even when worn for a long time. They stay put, don't ride up, they wash well and stay looking good.

          Only con is the drawstrings that constantly get lost in the waistband if you don't tie them (especially when you're going to wash them make sure to tie them)

              These are comfortable capris, seams dont seems to bother me; however, the waist it way to high. Sits above the natural waist, would be more comfortable if lower rise.

                      Unlike other RRS clothes (which tend to run small), these are true to size. Not too long on my 5'1" frame. These are comfortable and breathable. There are lots of seams, but they don't rub. And they wear like iron! They saved my knees from getting scratched up when I fell on the asphalt. The capris only ended up with a scuff... too bad I can't say the same for my hands!

                        I have always worn Nike's capris because of the back pockets to stick my Gu in the back.....these Roadrunner's Capris are just as good, lightweight with the right ventilation in the areas and perfect for those long runs....another plus it cost less than Nike and plus, plus it makes your butt look good!

                        These are my new favorites. Very flattering fit. They are snug, but not too tight and the drawstring waist allows a perfect fit. The fabric gives you support and it is not shiny like some workout pants, which can be unflattering. I am a size 4 and the small fit well.

                            I am 5'4", 135 lbs and size Medium fits well. As others have said, these aren't super compression like the CWX tights, but I like these and they are very comfortable. I also agree that the drawstring is a bit short, but I just pulled mine out as I don't need it. I don't have any problems with these slipping down or riding up, they pretty much stay put.

                              I think that you would have to order this tight a size smaller than you normally wear to have any compression at all. I am 5'7" and weigh 145 pounds and normally wear a size medium and that is the size I ordered in this tight. It almost feels loose and I needed to tighten the drawstring to keep them in place. I would order these in a size small next time. They are fairly thin, but I think that is a plus for mild weather. And like other reviewers have said, make sure you tie a knot in the drawstring or risk losing it inside the waist band.

                              These are very comfortable overall. I like the high waist and drawstring keep them from falling down. I would have given 5 stars but I am not crazy about the mesh portions. They were a little itchy and I don't feel they are needed.
                              I am between a small and medium. I ordered a medium but would probably have a better fit with a small.

                                I've always had a problem with workout pants falling down while I run. No, it's not because I'm getting the wrong size. Whenever I go down a size, they still manage to roll down my hips. I'm new to running; heck, I'm new to working out period. My problem is that my lower abdomen underneath my belly button causes pants to roll down when I'm being active. These compression tights really keep everything in. No parts of my body bounce any longer. Everything is compact and all I have to worry about is running.

                                I purchased these capri tights to wear for my first triathlon; I swam, biked and ran in them and they were perfect; extremely comfortable throughout the whole race(water & air temps were right around 70F). The inner drawstring is nice to customize fit; they were snug enough to swim in with no feeling of drag. Quick drying/moisture wicking meant I was dry and comfortable during the bike/run, and the length was perfect- I appreciated the support on my knees during the run. These are NOT cycling pants so no padding; they would not be suitable for longer bike rides, but for a sprint distance (10-15 miles) they were just fine. I wish the pocket was bigger; it's designed to hold a couple gel packs and is perfect for that, but it would be nice if it had a zipper and was big enough for a smartphone- the design/size is kind of pushing the limits for that. Overall I think these capri tights are great and a great value; I tried on a similar pair by a big name brand and besides fitting better (Im 5'6" 120# and small was perfect) these were also quite a bit less expensive.

                                  I bought these for running. They are comfortable and I like that they are a bit longer than my other capris, which is perfect for cool Washington weather. The ONLY negative is the drawstring. It needs to be about 5 inches longer. If you stretch the waist to far it goes into the hole. I have had to fish it out on a few occasions. Frustrating way to start a workout

                                  This item was recommended to me by a Roadrunner Sports salesperson as a replacement for the old RRS capris they no longer carry that were light weight and virtually seamless. Unfortunately, it's not even remotely similar. There are heavy, uncomfortable seams everywhere: down the legs, across the thighs in the front and back, & across the buttocks. The vented area behind the knees is made of a scratchy material that's irritating when you sweat. I'd give it a 0 if I could.

                                  I ordered these thinking they were the same as the ultra tights, just in a capri version. I was so disappointed to discover they did not have the low rise waistband. They cut into my waist and are unflattering, sending back.

                                  I am NOT a capri wearer and I LOVE these pants. They looked like the elusive capri of my dreams so I figured I would try them and they are great. The waistband is comfortable and they are just capri length tights without being flared at the bottom, which I like. The mesh around the leg bottoms is discreet but airy. I have big hips and smaller quads and then big calves and these are SO flattering, whereas most capris leave my legs looking shapeless. 5 stars for sure.

                                  These are my new favorites. Very flattering fit. They are snug, but not too tight and the drawstring waist allows a perfect fit. The fabric gives you support and it is not shiny like some workout pants, which can be unflattering. I am a size 4 and the small fit well.
