The design and hue appeal to me. I ordered my standard size 4, and while the legs feel somewhat tight, the waist is comfortable with a bit of give. Increasing the size likely would have made the waist too baggy. I'm uncertain about the fabric; it's soft but also seems flimsy. I'm hoping I can wear these for extended runs; if not, they'll still be good for the gym or lounging! Furthermore, delivery to Canada was quicker than anticipated!
