I think they run small!

I think they run small!

X2! I have a pair of medium Stabilyx Insulators tights. According to their sizing chart, I fall solidly into the size Medium range...but I seriously can barely get them on. I think I wore them 2 times...once for a 5k race, and once for a 4 mile training run. I literally feel like I cannot breathe wearing them...the waistband digs and binds so badly on me. The lower back, hip, and knee support is amazing...but they are just too uncomfortably tight to wear for any length of time.

If anyone is interested in a pair of like-new size Medium Stabilyx Insulator tights for a good price...PM me!

I'm in the first gray box to the left of the medium yellow boxes. I managed to get the mediums on my bod but movement was out of the question. I know the design isn't super comfy, but using the size chart puts me in a size that is completely nonfunctional.

Hmmm. They're super comfy to me...

I can put on a pair of Medium and not have any excess fabric anywhere except they're a little long. But to get the benefit of the compression, I need to be in Small, and at 5'3", 122# I can totally feel why their size chart has me on the small end of the size.
