FR Force Midweight Legging

Company bought me a pair like many say need belt loops, so I can at the very least throw tape measure on. More colors (navy/brown/grey). More pockets. Absolutely love the much needed stretch that alone gives 2*

Bought a size M WAY to tight in the legs and thighs and way to big in the waist. For reference I'm (5'6 and 135lbs)

Movement and FR in the leggings is great, however the waistband does sag throughout the day, and does not hold up to heavy tools in the pockets. I found myself constantly adjusting the waistband throughout my shift. Otherwise pretty great, and they clean up fine in the washer and dryer and haven't been affected by high heat.

Haven't even washed once yet and already tearing around the back pocket.

I bought one pair about a year ago. Bought another a few weeks ago. Needs belt loops and another color- how about beige? The first pair compared to the second pair is about 2 inches wider waist band than the second pair. I wear them about once a month- so its not necessarily from being stretched out and they fit snug, not tight-kinda like well-fitting straight leg jeans. My thought is this: maybe instead of putting belt loops on, they made the waist tighter. Its not so tight you notice it while wearing, nor is it uncomfortable- it does loosen during the day, but one pair laid on top of the other pair it is noticeable the waist is larger on the first pair. Both pair still fit well and do not slouch off during the day. Also noticed the first pair are fading. Since they are FR, I try to not wash every wear- rather every other to preserve the FR, and I use a mild soap. In the summer have to be washed every wear tho. I wash them inside out also.
