@Darrell2 I went from a size 18 to size 6 and was finally able to wear a pair of XL workout shirts I bought on here. They were definitely not U.S. sizing.
@hchavers please don’t take that comment to be anything more than a salute to the play on words, intended or not. I am the last person who should intentionally pick at grammar, typographical accuracy, or spelling!
@shawn, reporting that ”something went terribly wrong” screens are frequently, but certainly not always, resulting from simple comment posting for me lately.
(‘Don’t recall which devices, but this one was on a fully updated current gen iPad.)
@gertiestn Standing on your toes makes your butt higher and rounder (this is a big part of the high heals effect). It also raises the calf muscle bulge closer to the knee, elongates the line of the leg and prevents the right angle at the ankle (which tend to look unnatural in photographs).
So… yes. Leggings look their absolute best on tippytoes.
Meh, how about asking a range of meh staffers to try these on, so we have some idea of size. Not asking for pictures. Just something like “Female staffer who has a 33” inseam and weighs 150 pounds thought they were too small." or “5’6” male staffer, 180 pounds, thought they were comfy, but stretched so much they were translucent"
@whogots Not one person brought up weight in a negative manner except you. It’s also not about exercise as to why most people are overweight and more about food intake.
First, you were definitely blessed by the irony fairy. Did anyone ask how to lose weight? They did not. And yet here you are giving advice.
First point five, I did not assert that exercise and weight loss were closely related. Lots of random Dunning Kruger victims still think exercise is a key factor in CICO. Many of them feel comfortable making intrusive lifestyle recommendations, including exercise. And a subset of concern trolls are vociferously repulsed by the sight of fat people wearing tight clothes or being sweaty. These people are venomous shitgibbons.
(First point seven five, you know who directly benefits from exercise? Type 2’s. Who are often fat or stocky. It can dramatically reduce blood sugar. So if you could NOT downplay the value of exercise, that’d be great.)
Second, I didn’t “bring up weight in a negative manner”.
Third, shitty comments were made. They’re collapsed but still exist. I don’t know if any were deleted.
Also, staff made a comment about not including models because of past harassment, which would inevitably have included attacks on weight. It always does.
@whogots That’s cute that you think what I said construed advice of any sort. I’ll concede that I might have missed a negative post but I read through all of the comments and didn’t see one at the time of my posting.
I ordered them and they fit great, I am between size 10/12 and had no problem with fit! For the price, can’t beat them. If you don’t want to buy them, don’t! No need to bad mouth, grow up people
I love these, have several and just ordered another set. I’m 5’4, 170 pds. When it’s cold, I wear them on my walks. They’re better than sweats and so comfortable. They breathe good too so I never get hot in them. Love them. I wear a longer t-shirt with them and a sweatshirt.

NO
I assure you that they don’t fit me.
/giphy horror
I guess they work with wooden legs.
What the back look like?
@medz
@cinoclav nice
When underwear became outerwear.
@katbyter and I love it.
Mehggings
Honestly, those disembodied leggings (are there even legs in there?) are much more disturbing than the obligatory freakish/funny-ish photo at the end.
26” inseam? For hobbits?
@craigcush assuming that’s before they stretch. Pantyhose have a pretty short inseam too. These are basically more sturdy footless pantyhose.
They seem to be missing the third leg
Well, these are going to leave nothing to the imagination if I wear them.
One size fits most = one size fits none
@Darrell2 I went from a size 18 to size 6 and was finally able to wear a pair of XL workout shirts I bought on here. They were definitely not U.S. sizing.
@Jeepersca Congratulations on your hard work and success.
Write-up pictures and comments above reminded me of this:
@phendrick nice memory-bone tickler and find-match for today!
Will these leggings fit these legs???
@Kerig3 This may finally explain the orange hair
@Grumman @Kerig3 OMG yikes!! I’m not going to be able to unsee that
It would be helpful to have a bit more information about the sizing than the useless length of them.
How do I get the pink and blue ones?
I thought it said 2 for $10. When I used my coupon code they came out 2 for $15
@fairchild521 one pack of two.
@Ignorant well silly me. I have gotten so used to having to pick 2 different things when they said 2 for. Makes total sense now
@fairchild521 how did you get a coupon code?
@allergycheryl Possibly by winning one of the daily Look Smart Trivia questions. Here’s the one that’s still up today if you want to check it out. Keep looking for new ones daily.

Why do I get the feeling… I mean … these would cut off all feeling from the waste down.
@hchavers you intended “waste”, right?
So the “waist” area is a good fit?
@RedOak I am become a sycophant to autocorrect. Please don’t make her mad.
@hchavers please don’t take that comment to be anything more than a salute to the play on words, intended or not. I am the last person who should intentionally pick at grammar, typographical accuracy, or spelling!

Product number: “leg McMuffin”. Ha!
Again, MEH missed the mark…should have sold these with a codpiece…
As a person who does indeed binge watch ‘Forensic Files’, I feel called out.
Did someone send out a memo that leggings look their absolute best if and only if the leggings are on tippytoes?
@gertiestn Standing on your toes makes your butt higher and rounder (this is a big part of the high heals effect). It also raises the calf muscle bulge closer to the knee, elongates the line of the leg and prevents the right angle at the ankle (which tend to look unnatural in photographs).
So… yes. Leggings look their absolute best on tippytoes.
Will these show the proper amount of Camel Toe? I love the Moose Knuckle!
One size fits most… But doesn’t specify what “most parameters are”. People under a size 6 it’ll be too big? People above a size 14 it’ll be too small?
Define “most”.
@richferg rude
@richferg looks fine to me. Don’t judge. Also, McDonalds is awesome.
EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!
@Thumperchick heaven forbid that people are fat and also workout.
“One-Size-Fits-Most” for a sufficiently broad definition of “fits”.
As soon as I see the word Spandex on anything, really.
I 'member when meh staffers used to model articles of clothing for the product photos.
@medz You want a Meh staffer to attempt to wear a pair of these? Well, I do need a scarecrow model for the coming growing season.
@medz then they were harassed and it was gross.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@Thumperchick that is unfortunate. Real photos of real people modeling things is very helpful to illustrate how products really fit/look.
@medz I also find live-modeled photos more helpful in determining fit. I’ll see if our buyer for these has something more they can add.
@medz @Thumperchick like the one time someone modeled a knife and there was one customer who was grossed out by their perfectly normal fingers?
@medz @RiotDemon we did a quick in-house test and added the rough sizing we think is accurate.
@RiotDemon @Thumperchick Was it the guy who is afraid of scorpions?
@medz I think it was some kind of ckrt or other folder.
Whaaaaaa I cant vote in the npoll at 11:23 am???
Meh, how about asking a range of meh staffers to try these on, so we have some idea of size. Not asking for pictures.

@bdb or
5’7" HR staffer had no comment on the leggings, but strongly advised against publishing employee body dimensions…
/me is hoping these “leggings” will also work as cold weather running tights (insulating long underwear) for running in very cold temperatures.
I love how the mannequins seem to show the inevitable underwear line misshaping the butt
Say… You know who could use a pair of these leggings? I’ll tell you who:
Sizing info update:
@Thumperchick Tune in next week for “Behind the Scenes: Spoiling the Magic of Meh Product Size Confirmation”
These wouldn’t happen to be lined with Kevlar? Asking for a biker friend.
Are leggings unisex? Would I look weird wearing leggings to the gym as a man? Or should I just stick to wearing these around the house?
@j37hr0 Men wear leggings. And you can put a pair of shorts over them if you feel weird.
Nominally-womens’ leggings might be too loose in the butt, though.
@j37hr0 I don’t think these look very “manly.” Most men’s leggings have more room in the crotch area and they tend to be some shade of black.
ITT: The kind of venomous shitgibbon who’s always telling fat people to exercise and gets mad when they do so.
@whogots Not one person brought up weight in a negative manner except you. It’s also not about exercise as to why most people are overweight and more about food intake.
@grimblegromble @whogots cough cough
@Thumperchick The coruscating wit on this one.
