*UPDATE* I bought the first pair (in black) about 7 months ago and have worn them to work several times and followed with washing/drying (no heat) with no problems. No holes or tearing, no fading or shrinking, no change in elasticity or shape. So I decided to buy a second pair and opted for the burgundy. The color isn't as vibrant as pictured, which bummed me out a little since that's why I picked it, but not enough to make me send them back. The only real difference between the first pair and second pair is the thickness of the elastic band at the waist. The black pair doesn't have much elasticity so it's loose and I have to pull them up often. However, with the burgundy pair, the elastic waist band is much thicker and fits better.*ORIGINAL REVIEW* I'm supposed to wear jeans at work, but I'm not a jeans every day kinda girl so sometimes it gets old. Plus, spending $25-$40 for stuff I'm only going to wear to work is a waste for me. So occasionally I wear jeggings, provided they look enough like actual jeans to fool my boss. I got these in the black size 1x. The look of them is jeans-like, no problems there. The fabric is comfortable and the stitching well done. I like the real pockets, both front and back as well as the belt loops since I can hook my POS slide card thingy on one of them. The only thing is the sizing. I'm a curvy, well-muscled size 12, occasionally 14 since the herniated disk in my neck keeps me from being diligent in my workouts, and the size 1x is listed as being comparable to size 12-14. However, these are a little too big, especially in the waist. These fit more like a 14-16. I plan to wash/dry them in warm/hot and see if that helps make them shrink enough to fit me better.
