Gap legging jeans - help with fit needed!

I tried on Gap's green legging jeans and I liked how they fit. Snug, but not uncomfortably so.

I would love your opinion on the fit! Also if anyone has tried these - do they stretch out a lot? They say 'super stretchy', which is why I sized down and tried this size (Fr 36, US 6).

Thanks!

Eta: The size up was very baggy in the crotch

They are looking a touch snug to me based on the bit of pulling across the thighs in the back and around the hips in the front. You are probably in a better position to judge whether they are too snug, though, especially if they stretch a bit as you wear them.

They seem pretty tight. Can you size up? I had to size way up in my old navy jeggings and white jeans too.

Very hard for me to say Kirti. Based on the pictures I would say size up. But if they stretch out, then they are the right size. What did the Sales Associate say about stretching?

hmm...i'm not convinced that you need to size up. i actually have the pink ones at home and they fit similarly to how these are fitting you. i didn't size down, however--i stuck with the same size as my forever skinnies. people have said that the skinnies do stretch out a lot, but these legging jeans also have a high polyester content, which makes me think they won't stretch out as much as the cotton jeans.maybe you could take a photo of the next size up so we can compare?

I think they look a bit too snug too. Even if they stretch out, they will be pretty wrinkled from the snug fit. I don't think pants that are a touch loose stretch quite as much anyway.

Great colour Kirti and the length if perfect. I think I would size up though - at least try them.

Wow - beautiful colour and sexy fit! I think they look fab, but others are saying too tight. Would a size up shrink a tad upon washing? You wouldn't want to be uncomfortable. To me, this is how jeggings (or, leans!) should look, though. Like tights.

Hi kirti, myself got one GAP jeggings in blue and loved it so much. Looks just like jeans and can wear shorter tees with it. Mine has not stretched to look baggy till today, The jeggings stretches just to fit the body. And once I am out of it they go back to the normal size. So may be this is the right fit for you. Snuggly fitting.
Hope to see some WIW with these soon.

I actually tried the size up but it was baggy in the crotch! I thinkI will oass on thesw, since most of you think these are too tight!

Gorgeous color and if they will stretch a tad then great! If they won't stretch then maybe sizing up and washing them in hot to shrink a tad?
