YOGINI'S CLOSET UNFOLD -
|
1. Size – It is true to size. I wear an XS. For your reference, I am size 4 in Lululemon.
2. Style – Capri legging. 3. Inseam – 22" long. It is my preferred length, which goes right below the calf (I am 5'2). 4. Front Rise – 9" medium rise, which is the same as Track & Bliss Into The Moonlight legging (the Closet Unfold from last week). 5. Waistband – 1.5" waistband. Before I ordered this legging, I already knew I wouldn't like it and I was right. It is too narrow for me. Just like most narrow waist and mid rise leggings, it does not hide the muffin top. There is nothing I like about the narrow waistband. It pinches at the waist and doesn't provide enough coverage and support. This design reminds me HPE Oak 3/4 Curve Legging. That said, this is my preference, I am sure it works for others just fine. |
6. Fabric – 80% Polyester and 20% Spandex. It is medium to high compression silky fabric. I actually like the feel of the fabric a lot. It covers the needs for almost any exercise, i.e., four-way stretch for ease of movement, compression for muscle support and sweat wicking to keep you stay cool.
7. Design for – I would wear it to heated and non-heated yoga as well as gym workouts. 8. Cost – Retail price $75. I bought it on sale at Bloomingdales for $56.25 + tax. |
9. Stitch Seam – Comfortable flat locking seams.
10. Crotch Seam – Lined triangle gusset.

Regardless how much I like the print and the fabric of Terez Aztec Tapestry Capri Legging, I am returning it. It fits weird in the crotch area (bottom left picture), and nor does it flatter my butt (my friend says it looks like a pancake, FLAT). These are minor issues. The main reason I am not keeping it is because of the narrow waistband. It is not comfortable and does not provide enough support. If you don't mind the narrow waist, it is definitely a keeper.
