“I need compression leggings to relieve bursitis of the hip. It is really difficult to get the right size as an apple shape. These are perfect for me, but I might have thought they were too tight if it hadnt been for the little note telling me to persist. They look great, and support my hip, to the extent that my very noticeable limp disappears . I thought the price was fair for the quality. I am a 16-18 and bought xl. Fit is good. I'm still apple shaped though”
