Warm Essentials by Cuddl Duds Women's Active Thermal Leggings - Black

Love the fit and silky smooth finish. But they’re not thermal/“waffle” and the fabric smells horrible. Almost like insecticide but it’s the material. Must return.

They are form fitting without being snug. They keep me warm with no added bulk.

love these, not too heavy or too light and they don't stretch out like many others. They are also highwasted and don't fold over so they are super comfortable. I bought two pair at first, added two more and am thinking of adding more now so I never run out!

These leggings are thin and lightweight. They add a layer of lightweight warmth. The fabric is silky and sleek, so clothes glide on over them. They are not the warmest Cuddl Duds- if you need something warmer, you should check out the Cuddl Duds Fleece. These are thin, so they definitely should not be worn alone. They are designed to wear underneath regular clothes. Perfect for when you need a little extra warmth.

Other reviews I read shows that most people don't understand how thermals work. used to be you had to pile on layers to keep warm. Then came "thermal" under layers. They had "pockets" woven into the fabric. these pockets trap air that your body heat has warmed. Same concept as the old style "wet suit" did with water. Today, we have light weight polyester fabric that is really good at holding heat. When you later up with polyester, or any other fabric, it neither needs to have pockets OR thickness. You want a somewhat loose fit in your under layer as well as your outer so that there is room within your clothing layers for air to flow. A pocket. I Love this under layer BECAUSE it is so lightweight, also because being polyester, the fabric is slick so that loose layer under my leggings doesn't bind or crease, it moves with me without bunching. The "perfect" under layer for warmth. BTW, true to size but I have my size and larger for depending on what I'm wearing over them.

I love the new design with a wider waistband similar to athletic pants. The last pair I purchased about 20 years ago had a very small waistband like panties.

Not warm. These are made of regular stretchy active wear material.

I bought these becuase they were listed as active thermal leggings. Do I think they're actually going to last for more than 3 runs? Probably not. Are they warm? Yes. There is very little tightness to them, but somehow they didn't fall down when I was running. I would say they are true to size but a little bigger than true to size.

I love how it fits.is amazing and the color is awesome

Pros: these “leggings” are super comfortable & great to wear around the house. Cons: these are NOT thermals and they are see-through. I used to live in New Jersey and Vermont so I’m very familiar with (different) under layers and thermals. I now live in Maryland and these leggings don’t come close to keeping me warm…

These leggings are great! Super comfortable and very warm. Wear them under leggings and jeans during the winter - they are perfect! True to size.

totally see through and not thermal in the slightest

Fits to size and super comfy. Not big and bulky like some other thermals. Fits nicely under clothes.

I am disappointed to see this brand pass off this material as thermal. Sure the thin material easily goes under the clothing but it feels like a lining - not warm enough even during the 40°F degree weather in Chicago.

Best ever!! Sleep, workout & run errands. My most favorite!!♥️

I bought this at the end of last winter and didn't get the chance to try them then. I did try them on recently and found out they are way bigger than expected. I purchased based on the size chart. Go at least one size less, if not two.

These are warm and thinner fabric than my other pair of fleece lined active wear leggings by 90 degrees. These would be nice for running errands outside when it's chilly, but make sure you have a top that covers your bum. Panty lines are visible in these. I'm 5'3" so the leggings pool a little bit at my ankle, but not as bad as some other leggings I've tried.

These are the perfect fit for me to wear under my fall/spring pants, making them great for winter also.

These are very comfortable to wear, It kept me warm for New York weather. If you live in a cold place I definitely recommend these, however, follow the measurement guide. I am 5.1" and I bought a small size pant and a medium shirt that goes with this.

These are going to be great for working out and running errands but they do run a little big.
