Niyama Sol Slate Stripe Barefoot Legging Review

Author's Rating - 8.1 /  10

Top: Athleta With Ease 2 in 1 Support Top, Black, XS
Bottom: Niyama Sol Slate Stripe Barefoot Legging, Small

PROS / Niyama Sol Slate Stripe Barefoot Legging is a high performance yoga pant, featuring four-way stretch, moisture wicking, quick drying and anti-bacterial. It is made with recycled PET. The legging keeps everything tucked in, enhances the body curvatures, and gives extraordinary booty lift.

CONS / The legging is sheer. Unless wearing nude or skin like light color underwear, it is see-through. I tried the legging with dark color underwear, and I can see through when doing forward folding poses such as Adho Mukha Svanasana and Uttanasana.

BOTTOM LINE / The legging is made with soft RPET (good for the environment). It's breathable and moisture wicking. The fit is amazing. It is a bummer that it's sheer!!!

About Niyama Sol -

I've introduced Niyama Sol in my previous post, Niyama Sol Gypsy Sol Beachcomber Crop Review. Niyama Sol is a recycled fitness and fashion brand. Although the company is based in Las Vegas, NV, its clothes are made in China. It doesn't matter to me where the clothes are manufactured. What I care is the product quality and performance. The cost of a pair of pant from Niyama Sol is between $72 to $88.

Niyama Sol Slate Stripe Barefoot Legging UNFOLD -

I was so pleased by the Gypsy Sol Beachcomber Crop that I purchased couple months ago and decided to order few more leggings from Niyama Sol. The Slate Stripe Barefoot Legging is one of them. People like me who doesn't have straight and skinny legs, the horizontal stripe actually has slimming effect to compliment the shape of my legs.

​

​1. Size – Niyama Sol's pants run small. I am wearing size small.
​
2. Style – ​​Ankle length legging.

3. Inseam – 26" long. Since I am only 5'2”, I can wear it over the heels.

4. Front Rise – 9.75" high rise that keeps everything tucked in, no muffin top.

​
5. Waistband – 5” wide waistband, which prevents pinching or digging into the waist.
​
​6. Fabric – 84% RPET, 16% SPANDEX.

7. Design for – Heated, non-heated yoga and any other gym workouts. The fabric is so comfortable that you can almost wear it for any activity including lounging around the house.

8. ​Cost – $78. I got in on sale for $54.6 from McClure Fitness.

9. Stitch Seam – Comfortable flat locking seams.

​10. Crotch Seam​ – Lined diamond shaped gusset.

Unlike Alo Yoga Tech Lift Airbrush Legging, there is no hidden key pocket on Niyama Sol Slate Stripe Barefoot Legging.

If you are looking for leggings or yoga pants that can enhance your body curvatures, Niyama Sol is definitely one of your top choices. The horizontal stripe pattern of Slate Stripe Barefoot Legging gives a long and lean appearance. The compressive fabric not only lifts my booty but also enhances my body curvatures.

I really like the RPET and Spandex blend fabric from Niyama Sol. It is very soft and comfortable. The Slate Stripe Barefoot Legging fits me like a glove. I appreciate the legging is breathable, four-way stretch, moisture wicking and fast drying. Unfortunately, the legging is sheer and see-through when wearing dark color underwear. I don't understand why the Slate Stripe Barefoot Legging (dark color) is more sheer than Gypsy Sol Beachcomber Crop (light color). I have to find the RIGHT underwear to pair with the Slate Stipe Barefoot Legging or you can see through when I am in forward folding poses. I had very high expectation from Niyama Sol, but I am so disappointed with the Slate Stripe Barefoot Legging.
