The front leg zipper is a nice touch and versatile in letting you control the amount of scrunch (if you are not too tall, that is). For me the problem was of fit -- the size that worked best for my hips was too long, and because of the zippers I couldn't have them altered.&nbsp;<br /><br />Good luck! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leith-track-pants-looking-for-feedback#post-930507 Sun, 12 May 2013 04:27:11 +0000 Thistle 930507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know some people were finding that the pants ripped after a wear or two. Still, they look terrific! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leith-track-pants-looking-for-feedback#post-930502 Sun, 12 May 2013 03:46:47 +0000 Susie 930502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am only 5'1" so I have a lot of extra drape in the length but I don't mind that and I've had no problem with the fabric. I am enjoying them so far and have gotten compliments each time I've worn them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leith-track-pants-looking-for-feedback#post-930472 Sun, 12 May 2013 02:34:33 +0000 Beth Ann 930472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I sent them back because, while I loved the look, I found them a little tight in the calves.&nbsp; I do, however, have an impressive set of calves, making leggings and skinnies often not work for me.&nbsp; There's plenty of room in the thigh, hip and waist.&nbsp; I loved the zipper and the drape.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leith-track-pants-looking-for-feedback#post-930428 Sun, 12 May 2013 01:22:19 +0000 Jenava 930428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think they ripped round the ankle zipper for some people? &nbsp;I am just careful to unzip them and not force my foot through, knowing this is a weak area in the garment.<br /><br />I LOVE mine. &nbsp;My favorite outfit is to wear them with my taupe lace tee and taupe heeled suede sandals. &nbsp;Simple, comfy, and fashionable. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leith-track-pants-looking-for-feedback#post-930427 Sun, 12 May 2013 01:17:53 +0000 Marlene 930427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ripping? &nbsp;Why would they rip? &nbsp;Is that a problem with the fabric? &nbsp;I think the STYLE is something that will work for me but I should probably wait a bit and see if someone makes some that don't rip!<br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leith-track-pants-looking-for-feedback#post-930254 Sat, 11 May 2013 19:29:37 +0000 Classically Casual 930254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wore my Leith track pants to dinner last night &amp; felt fab. I still love mine, especially with black strappy flat sandals. We sat outside enjoying the beautiful evening, and I was very comfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leith-track-pants-looking-for-feedback#post-930232 Sat, 11 May 2013 18:47:45 +0000 Janet 930232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think some people had problems with them ripping! :-(<br /><br />I got these and I love them. They won rave reviews from YLF when I wore them the other day:<br /><br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/vince-pants-silk-solid-track?ID=672437&amp;CategoryID=13574#fn=WOMENS_APPAREL_TYPE%3DPants%20&amp;%20Leggings%26spp%3D12%26ppp%3D96%26sp%3D1%26rid%3D52%26spc%3D20">http://www1.bloomingdales.com/.....ID=13574#f</a><br /><br />On sale, they're a&nbsp;bit beyond that $100 budget but I think it's not a bad price for silk.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/leith-track-pants-looking-for-feedback#post-930199 Sat, 11 May 2013 17:43:55 +0000 Marlene 930199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I just did a new-season closet reorganization and I'm thinking a pair of drapey "track pants" would be a good addition for the spring and summer. &nbsp;Now that several of you have had some time to test drive the Leiths....what do you think? &nbsp;How is this trend working in real life? How does everyone feel about that leg-zipper?&nbsp;Did anyone get any other style or brand of track pants that I can consider that might be better?&nbsp; I really would want to keep the price down under $100 for such a trendy item. &nbsp;
