High-waisted leggings

Rated 1 out of 5 on 12 Apr 2023

Will return these as ordered both L and XL but didn't open up these. These are very disappointing. First of all they're made of some thin jersey fabric, not what h&m's regular leggings are like. They are very see-through the second you slightly bend your knee, sit etc. They also make some odd raspy sound if you don't have an immaculate thigh gap. The waistband is not elasticated but a weird empty fabric piece that folds everywhere. The shape of them I think is too tight considering the fabric as they've got poor stretch. I find they travel down a lot without having an elastic waistband. I was a size 10-12 prepregnancy and bought an xl fitting 12-14 now I've had my baby a month ago in the hope they'd be a bit on the bigger side for me and not stretch transparent, but no such luck

I bought these leggings a few weeks ago thinking they were exactly the same as the ones I bought last year. Had to purchase online as none available in store so relied on description and pictures. However, despite being high waisted and having wide waistband, the ones recently purchased did not have the firm waistband that last years had. Basically they don’t stay on my waist properly and are not suitable. Despite calling customer services, they are unable to advise whether the ones I want are available this year.

Recommended for high waist and thickness so bought size small. I wore them for the first time and within an hour fabric on the legs became very baggy especially around the ankles. I am 5'4'' and the length on these are ridiculous (bunched at the ankles - 10cm too long) even with pulling them up as much as possible. (*Note: generally H&M arm and leg length needs considering from myself and other's experience with items (full length sleeved fitted casual tops/jumpers - covering entire hand and not to wrist).

Thought these were the same as I always buy, was extremely disappointed to see that the thick elastic in the yoga waist was now a skinny flimsy elastic just along the top edge. Thought I'd give them the benefit of the doubt and after a day's wear they are not fit for purpose and overall uncomfortable as constantly feel as if they are falling down and don't have that snug support of the previous design. Such a shame as these were my favourite leggings and I've purchased multiple pairs in the past.

Bought these thinking they were the same as a previous pair I had bought (literally clicked on a previous order and bought again) these are NOT the same leggings. As others have said they aren’t really high waisted and the fabric is totally different. They feel like they have no stretch in them. They are a nice dark black but then I would expect that when purchasing a pair of black leggings! Not really very impressed, I had an offer so only paid £8.00 or I would of returned them!

Bought these leggings thinking they where the basics by h&m ones I had before. But they say divided inside. The quality is no where near the same. I bought XS thinking they would be ok like the last ones but no. Go baggy straight away and Constantly pulling them up. And one leg kept bagging above the ankle. I will be returning the other pair I bought. Don’t seem to have any other choice online either and none in store. I would say a defo no no.

These are fantastic leggings, great value, great fit, great fabric. I have purchased so far 8 pairs of these, 6 in black, 2 in grey in size M. I love the thick waistband that sits higher on the waist, it is not constricting, it's very comfortable, and it creates a smooth line. I love that this is made from cotton, because it is breathable, and I can wear it in summer and winter. Don't stop making these! Definitely a wardrobe staple for me.

When I first tried these on I thought they were perfect, they fit well. But then not long after wearing them, they keep slipping down I am constantly pulling them up, so I wouldn’t say they were high waisted as they come down every few minutes. And they are not too big as I don’t think the smaller size would of fit I think it’s just a quality thing and them not being high waisted enough. Colour is nice thiugh

The only good thing about these is that they don't appear to be see through. I'm very tired of H&M constantly changing their leggings. These ones are completely different from the ones I had bought previously (several times), yet they're advertised as the same product. The length is perfect, but these absolutely do not feel high wasted and I'm constantly worried that they're going to fall off.
