I need high-rise leggings with a strong elastic at the top to keep them up. I was hoping that the Robson tights would fit the bill, but they disappointed on both counts. They are high-rise, but it's going a bit far to call them "ultra high-rise". There is a thin elastic at the top, but it wasn't strong enough and after bending over a couple of times the waistband rolled down under my gut.
I am 5'6", 180lbs, Waist - 35", Hips 43" and ordered a size Large, same as the Stevie denim pants.
Pictures are before and after the waistband rolled down.
