I have acquired a few of these Kyoto leggings after initially purchasing the black in Small. Although they were somewhat hard to pull on at first - even a little long - I would order the same size since mine have softened over the years and become more pliable. For some reason, in the other colors, they have not fit as well or the quality has not been up to par.
So I am hoping after many years to find my new Black Kyoto's to be as great as the ones that I am still wearing. It's always good to have two pairs of your favorite tights around. Amazing for daily use in California all. year. around. For the records, I am 90 yrs. old, formerly athletic. 115-120 lbs. Off and on stage actor and still. FP was and still is my style!
