Was comfortable riding in South Florida. Size medium is flattering fit for 120 lb 5’2”These tights fit me perfectly and are very comfortable. I am happy with the grip I have with them.I'm a plus size gal and I love these. So comfortable, absorb sweat, keeps me a bit cooler than other breeches. They are super stretchy, pockets hold my phone, they stay put and you don't see my underwear line.So perfect. So cool.Including a picture of my out-of-shape self to show a larger person in these pants. The short of it? These are the best freaking riding pants I’ve ever had. The long of it is that I recently got my lovable moose of a draft cross who can safely carry me as I work on rebuilding myself. I’m down 30lbs but core strength is a faded memory but it’s slowly returning. Jeans weren’t cutting it. Well, they were kinda cutting me in half with the waist band digging in. And with summer approaching the heat was starting to make heavy denim impractical. I haven’t bought riding pants in years. Then I found these with butt-cooling fabric AND pockets!?! Yes. The pockets fit my smartphone covered in a charging case. The waistband doesn’t dig and I don’t feel like I’m squeezing into a toothpaste tube when putting them on. I’m absolutely a larger rider. I’m personally working on reducing weight for the sake of myself and my moose. But in the meantime I’m so glad these come in 2x. For those in the same boat as I am I’m 5’5” and currently 255lbs. I still feel like I have room in them if I was either a bit larger or smaller. And I honestly plan to also wear these on summer walks as athletic wear.Supportive but fantastic freeing stretch at the same time.I love these tights, they are so comfortable. They fit great and are super flexible. The silicon Kerrits have a nice grip to them but are not so tacky that hair sticks to them. I love the pocket on each leg for my phone. They even keep me from sweating in embarrassing places. Living in the south we have “air you can wear” since it is so humid. These are fantastic. I’m not going to lie and say I don’t sweat, but at least these don’t stick to you. Which really comes in handy for potty breaks. I love them enough I plan on buying more. I have bought several summer tights and breeches, these are my favorite by far.The waistband is super comfortable and isn’t restricting if you have belly fat. I’m 5’4 and 130 pounds and a S fit well however in other Kerrit styles I need a M because the inseam is too short. I I would say they are a 55 degree and up riding tight.Generous fit - expected the opposite so could maybe have even gone size smaller. I bought 2XL and length was perfect (I’m 6’2”). Lighter than my Pikeur riding breeches but could have gone even lighter. Even with full seat, definitely not as sticky/secure as Pikeurs, but still nice alternative for hot summer days.
