I love the way it feels and the fit is better than I expected, and true to size! The only things I would change would be to have it less see through and make the arm hole smaller, length wise. Also, it would be great if you had a none T-back style option as well.

- Good
- Perfect for sensitive skin
Thick, supportive breathable! Perfect for my sensitive skin, doesn’t cause a reactive like standard gym wear. Game changer!
SDSarah D.Verified buyerAmazing to hear that, thanks so much, Sarah!
Franziskafrom Tripulse - Perfect Top for Workouts
The top is very airy and not tight on the body. Perfect for the summer and strong workouts . The fabric feels good on the skin and I'm glad to own this top.
JJackyAmazing, thanks so much, Jacky:)!

JJackyWe're so happy to hear this, thanks so much, Jacky:)!
Franziskafrom Tripulse - Sehr schönes Top mit weichem, leichtem Stoff
Sehr toller Stoff, der kaum zu spüren ist. Ein kleiner Makel war die Größenbestimmung, die ich etwas schwierig fand. Nach den angegebenen Maßen für die Größenbestimmung hätte es bei mir sowohl M als auch L sein können. Ich habe mich dann für L entschieden, weil ich wollte, dass es etwas lässiger sitzt. Das tut es zwar, steht aber an den Seiten unter den Achseln etwas ab. Wenn ihr bei den Größen also zwischen zweien schwankt, dann lieber die kleinere nehmen, locker sitzt es trotzdem ;-)
IMIsabell M.Verified buyerLiebe Isabell, danke fuer dein Feedback. Und es tut uns leid zu hören, dass das Tank Top etwas zu weit fuer dich ausgefallen ist. Hast du unseren interaktiven Chatbot fuer die Bestimmung deiner Grösse verwendet? Dieser sollte dich eigentlich auf genau das hinweisen. Wir haben in jedem Fall dein Feedback gleich umgesetzt und nun diese Info nochmals deutlich in unserem Sizing Guide vermerkt. Ich hoffe, dass es beim nächsten Mal besser klappt. Und im Zweifel bitte uns direkt via Chat, Telefon oder Email kontaktieren.
Franziskafrom Tripulse - Comfy and nice on skin
Soft, comfy, nice on delicate skin and squat-proof. Maybe a bit to thick and warm for my taste, but I still have to test them in the gym. Overall a great product.
ESElena S.Verified buyerThanks a lot for the feedback, Elena:)!
Franziskafrom Tripulse - Good
The material is so cool, it will be great in summer
LSLovisa S.Thank you Lovisa, great to hear this!
Franziskafrom Tripulse - Camel toe
I purchased these leggings for myself and my daughter who is a yoga teacher. She said they remind her of alo leggings, the ones she does not care for. The material is a bit stiff especially behind the knees, and the seam running up the front is not great, tends to lead to camel toe, which no women wants. I am however happy that they are made from non toxic materials, but hope they get better with wear.
CCCarrie C.Verified buyerDear Carrie, thank you so much for your feedback. Sorry to hear that you find them a bit stiff behind the knees and that they do camel toes due to the seams going from the crotch to the waistband. We have developed these leggings and tested them with many different users and female shapes to ensure that they will fit perfectly, and have no camel toes - and the results were really positive, including the feedback we got from our customers so far. But of course we can never guarantee that this will never happen, as also every body's shape is so unique. Perhaps for the future a different size might help? Also, we will consider your feedback for future product development, so thank you for that. When it comes to the stiffness of the fabric, it actually should be soft - have you washed them already? But in any case, the leggings will get even smoother the longer you wear them. I hope you and your daughter will still be happy with the leggings and thanks again for your feedback.
Franziskafrom Tripulse - So close, but a few critical flaws.
I'm torn on whether to keep these. They could be great, but have some pretty significant flaws that really affect performance. My complaints, from most significant to least: For some reason, the opening for the internal drawstring is about an inch lower than the top of the waistband. I'm pretty sure I need the drawstring to keep these in place (can't just cut it and remove it), but because it's not at the very top of the waistband in front, the waist rolls down and folds over the internal string. I have considered cutting the opening slots for it so it can go all the way to the top, but I'm not sure I could hand-sew the edges of the slits sufficiently to keep them from tearing/fraying. I have many high end leggings with internal drawstrings and have never had this problem before. I know these go up to XXXL, but I question whether these were ever tested on a body that size. Seems like they just scaled the pattern from smaller sizes. I wear straight (not plus) sizes, but am thickest in the middle. I think anyone who carries weight in the belly area and wants to wear these actually high up towards the natural waist will find the waist rolling/folding over the drawstring. It's very annoying. I also wish they were higher waisted. They really only come up to about my belly button (and I'm extremely short through the torso with long legs for my height), but I've found I really prefer my workout leggings a couple inches above. Everything just feels more secure that way, and it's also a cue to not bend at your belly-button/waist, because that's not how we should be moving! We should be hinging at the hip much more, but waistbands at the belly-button tends to make us feel that the pivot point is in our lumbar spine. I can pull them up a little higher, but then weird things start happening at the crotch - not uncomfortable, but not flattering. Again, I'm not sure the larger sizes were actually tested on larger bodies. I'm kind of in between sizes according to the chart, so ordered a large in these and an XL in the pocket legging, but the rise is exactly the same (measured from the crotch gusset to the top) - the rise should get higher as size increases, especially at the larger end of the spectrum, as there's generally a belly to accommodate. I also wish there was a large phone pocket in the back of the waistband. It's definitely wide enough for it, and the fabric substantial enough to hold a phone securely back there. It's the most comfortable place to stow a phone in your leggings by far. Who wants to work out, especially walk/run, with a big phone on their thigh?! The thigh pocket is not big enough fully cover/securely hold my iPhone 11 Pro Max, and the newest Pro Max is even bigger. (I have leggings with thigh pockets and back waistband pockets that fit my phone in a case no problem.) The fabric is extremely luxe. It's smooth and soft and a little lustrous. It's also quite thick. I live in Los Angeles, so I think these will be too heavy for a workout most of the time. They'd be reserved for casual wear and travel, and winter evening walks. That's not really a flaw, just my circumstance, but something to consider. The luxe fabric makes them a great option for casual wear and travel because they look very nice and the seams are finished beautifully. I'm really torn, as this is definitely the nicest non-synthetic/plastic (can't stand it) fabric I've ever seen (other Tencel leggings have no compression whatsoever), and performs so much better than cotton (hello, wetness), but the waist rolls down, the rise isn't quite high enough, and there's nowhere to put my phone. Cutting out the drawstring might help, or then they might not stay up. Cutting the drawstring slits higher would most likely help, but then might start unraveling. Either adjustment I wouldn't be able to return them.
CCarolineVerified buyerHi Caroline, thanks so much for your very detailed feedback. Very sorry to hear that you're having a few challenges with these leggings. Regarding the placement of the inner adjustable drawstring - the primary function of it is to give you the possibility to adjust the size of the waist area, especially in case the waistband fits a bit too loosely and to ensure that the leggings don't slide down. Having said that, we had a customer who found the drawstring too tight and who then simply cut it and pulled it out. It then worked much better for her and the leggings still didn't slide down (since there is also a second, "in-built", drawstring in the waistband). Perhaps this is something you could try out as well? Regarding the height of the waistband - where exactly it'll be on the body is indeed subjective as we are all differently built. I'm sorry to hear that the size of the pockets won't fit your mobile phone. We've tested and adjusted the fit and size of the pocket a lot during product development to ensure we create pockets that will fit most phones, and that don't fall out at the same time. The reason we didn't place the phone pocket on the back of the leggings is that a lot of people lay on their back while working out (e.g. during gym workouts, yoga etc) and so this location would be very hurtful and unsuitable. But thank you very much for pointing this out - it helps us to understand better your preferences and to keep all this in mind for future product development. Lastly, we're very happy that you like the feel of the fabric and hope you'll find some good use for them nonetheless. Thank you once more for your feedback!

Regarding the pockets for the phone - this leggings is not supposed to have pockets for a phone, but instead two smaller hidden pockets in the front of the waistband (as you can also read in the product description). We interviewed many fitness enthusiasts and athletes prior to designing the leggings and found that some prefer leggings without any phone pockets, especially for yoga and pilates usage. We always recommend our other leggings with SIDE pockets to people who like to carry their phones on them. Lastly, we're very happy that you like the feel of the fabric and hope you'll find some good use for them nonetheless. Thank you once more for your feedback!
