Comparing Interlink and Power Flex - both are 5 stars
I am writing this review for both the Interlink capri’s and the Power Flex capri’s because I ordered both and wanted to compare. I had a difficult time deciphering the difference between them based on the description from 90 Degrees and all of the reviews. They seemed like they were pretty much the same pants.First things first. Both styles are high waisted and provide tummy control. My favorite workout capri is from a company called Lucy and they used to make a capri called Perfect Core. To me, this was the gold standard of workout pants. They were thick, soft, high waisted and true to their name, gave you that Core support. A couple years ago, Lucy was bought out by North Face and they have opted to discontinue the capri style pant and only make full length leggings. I prefer capri’s, so I was on a quest to find a replacement. The Lucy Perfect Core capri is in the same price range of workout pants as Lulu or Athleta.Both the Interlink and Power Flex passed the squat test. Anyone who is saying that the fabric is too thin and see-thru did not buy the correct size (too small). Any fabric is only going to stretch so much before you can start to see the weave. Both pants also passed the “staying in place” test. I did not have to adjust, pull up or fix either pair during my workout. And l definitely put both of these pants to the test by wearing them on a leg day. I squatted, dead lifted and lunged with no issues whatsoever. I also tested them on a cardio day and had no issues running in them either.So, how do they differ? The only difference I could tell was the actual fabric and feel. The Interlink fabric is “silkier” and reminds me of bike shorts. It is a smoother and shinier and did seem to have a little bit better compression. The fabric on the Power Flex pants is more like fabric and is softer and more matte, which is more like the higher end workout pants.After wearing both styles, I prefer the Power Flex. Even though I felt more “compressed” in the Interlink, the Power Flex were more comfortable and something I would wear around the house or running errands. Where the Interlink are definitely a workout pant and not something that could pull double duty. I am giving both styles 5 stars because they really did perform and I liked both of them, and found my replacement pants.For reference, I am 5’-2”, 113 pounds and ordered XS in both styles.

Dream Come True
I purchased a similar pair from this company years ago and haven't been able to find them again. Wait over. These are like a dream - not too snug but run a tad on the snug side. I sized up and they are absolutely perfect for me. The are comfortable, soft, breathable, and just the right amount of elasticity. Perfect for wearing to the gym, going on walks, and around the house. Side note - I absolutely LOVE the little pocket on the belly - perfect for holding a key and ID for the gym (not great size for phone though.) I am now buying another three pack.

Perfect!
I have searched high and low for leggings I can workout in. These are them! They don’t pill up, the are squat proof and just snug enough to not lose shape! Also they are not silky!

I sized down. These fit really well but attract pet hair and dust like crazy.
I had a event to go and wanted a nicer pair of black Capri leggings. Most of mine go right to under the knee and I wanted ones that were longer. I searched around and found these and liked the length and the material. I chose size medium at first. I am 5'5", 127 pounds with a thick waist. When they arrived, they fit well but the belly part wasn't tight. I was hoping for more compression. At the last minute, I decided to try a small. They came the day of the event and I almost didn't try them on but did and they were way better. They had much more compression but were not too tight and they clung nicely to my skinny legs. Both sizes fit but I prefer the compression of the size small.These leggings did go down several inches below my knee as I wanted and looked sleek. They looked a tiny bit see through when I bent my knees while sitting but they are essentially opaque. I wore a longer top with them so I didn't worry about panty lines or them being see through in the butt. I wore them for many hours and they never slid down or stretched out. They stayed true to shape until I took them off. I really like them.The only thing I don't like is that they attract pet hair, dust, and anything else that may be floating around in the air. It was tough to keep them free of "stuff". I picked up a little lint roller and that solved the problem for the most part. I hand washed the the leggings and there was no shrinkage. I don't think I would machine wash and dry these. These are fine for working out and for wearing out. I would give them 5 stars but the fact that they attract everything is kind of a pain to deal with. Otherwise, they're really perfect for me. If you want good compression, consider sizing down, especially if you are close to being the smaller size.

BEST WORKOUT CLOTHING EVER!
I am 5'2" 114lbs I purchased a size XS. I have an athletic build with thick meaty legs for my size and these capris fit no more than an inch above my ankle and the waist band rests right above my belly button. The color does not fade as they stretch. Also the color did not bleed in my wash or fade. They fit like Spanx but are much, much easier to get on. They are a nice quality material they give a very smooth tight appearance I can't see any of my flaws through them. I truly put these to the test performing many different workouts and they do not budge the bottom doesn't ride up my leg and the top never folded or slid down. Yet they are not so tight and fitted that they leave impressions on my skin when I take them off. Which is super impressive! They did not show any moisture spots from sweat either. Also I should note that they do not "hug" the crotch area either. So whether you're running, lifting or just lounging you can't go wrong with this purchase. They're super comfy and cute. I highly recommend this and bonus if you pair them with the racerback tank. *Which I ordered in a small and it fits perfectly. I have a small waist 24in size 0 pants and a 32C chest and the small was great unless you prefer your tanks to fit as tight as your leggings, also the tank comes down to my hips which I like.I wear a lot of work out clothing and my husband even had LOTS of positive comments when I wore my new 90 Degree outfit. Can't wait to eventually have all the colors and patterns.

Shows SWEAT!
I bought these previously at a winners and they were my favorite! Finally found them online and was so excited, however these do not even compare to the quality of the first pair I bought. They showed up with the hem already falling apart and they show everything when you sweat! everything! So they may be good for a walk but definitely not sweaty workouts!
