00:02 What's up guys and welcome back to my channel.
00:09 So this video is super requested
00:11 and I feel like I have waited forever to film it.
00:14 But as some of you know, I am a senior in college
00:16 so sometimes exams get the best of me
00:18 and things have to be put on hold.
00:20 But I'm finally reviewing
00:22 the AliExpress Flawless Knit Leggings.
00:24 And these leggings, they're not $20.
00:27 No, they're not 15.
00:28 They're $12.
00:29 $12 leggings and they are exactly like Gymshark.
00:33 So these specific ones are from the Miss Who Outdoor Store
00:36 on AliExpress.
00:38 So a bunch of sellers sell these leggings
00:40 at a bunch of different prices,
00:41 but these are probably one of the cheapest prices
00:43 and they're really all the same leggings.
00:44 So I don't know why you wouldn't go for these.
00:46 And I'll have them linked down below of course.
00:48 Also I'm wearing another Gymshark Dupe Sports Bra.
00:51 This is like the Energy Seamless Sports Bra.
00:53 I'll link that down below as well
00:54 just 'cause it's like a fun sports bra.
00:56 And these are all the older colors.
00:58 I don't think the AliExpress sellers
00:59 have gotten the newer colors yet.
01:01 So we have the blue, the orange, the lilac,
01:05 purple, lavender shade, and then black.
01:07 And like I said, these are $12
01:10 and Gymshark sold their Flawless Knit for $55.
01:13 So you're basically getting like a fifth of the price.
01:16 So as for the material,
01:18 they feel exactly like the Gymshark ones.
01:19 I have the Gymshark ones
01:21 and I'll do a comparison in a minute,
01:23 but exactly the same.
01:24 And if you aren't familiar with the Flawless Knit,
01:26 they're kind of like an Energy Seamless type of fabric
01:29 because they're very slick,
01:31 but these are much thinner than the Energy Seamless
01:33 and they don't really offer any compression.
01:35 There's a bit of compression in the waistband
01:37 because it is double thickness,
01:38 but it is not nearly the amount of compression
01:41 that you would get out of the Energy Seamless.
01:43 So this makes for a very good
01:44 like lightweight, stretchy legging.
01:47 I personally love these.
01:48 I think that they're great for like upper body days.
01:50 If you like to keep your legs covered,
01:52 but you don't want to like feel really hot,
01:54 I think these are a great option.
01:56 So these come in size small to large
01:58 and the sizing is a little different on each color
02:01 from what I'm noticing.
02:02 So stay tuned because I'm going over each color in depth
02:04 in terms of how they fit, how stretchy they were,
02:07 and if I recommend true to size or not.
02:09 So the waistband on these, I personally love.
02:12 It comes way above your belly button,
02:14 so it's super high waisted,
02:15 but it's short enough that it doesn't like cut
02:17 into your love handles in a weird place.
02:20 It does offer some compression, like I said,
02:22 because it is double thickness,
02:23 but you're not going to get a ton of compression.
02:25 And I wouldn't say that these necessarily
02:26 have a ton of tummy control
02:28 because the waistband only goes to like,
02:30 it doesn't go to like your lower belly region,
02:32 so it's not going to suck you in
02:33 as much as an Energy Seamless.
02:35 But if you're not looking for anything compression,
02:38 I really love this waistband.
02:39 So as for the detailing, I will compare it to Gymshark,
02:42 but it's exactly the same.
02:43 So if you want to watch my in-depth review
02:45 of the Gymshark one, you can go ahead and do that.
02:47 But basically there's just a ton
02:49 of very delicate eyelets on these leggings.
02:51 So that being said, you really have to be careful
02:53 getting these leggings on, especially if you have nails,
02:56 and you can kind of rip the holes.
02:57 They are very delicate.
02:59 Even the Gymsharks are very delicate.
03:01 You can get some running in these,
03:03 so definitely be careful.
03:04 Also be sure to wash them in like a laundry bag
03:07 so that nothing catches on them
03:08 because these are very delicate.
03:11 Have I not mentioned they're very delicate?
03:13 I wanted to do a quick side-by-side comparison.
03:15 So these are the Gymsharks and these are the AliExpress.
03:18 And there's like a tiny little color difference.
03:21 You can see it on camera, but honestly in person,
03:24 they look exactly the same.
03:25 Like I'm looking at them with my own eyes.
03:27 There's a few tiny differences,
03:28 but as you can see overall, they the same.
03:32 So the waistband is a tiny bit shorter on the Gymsharks.
03:35 This little contour placement is also slightly different.
03:38 Wow, the color looks so different, but I promise,
03:40 these are both, they're both exactly the same.
03:42 This is so weird.
03:43 The eyelet detailing is also the same.
03:45 Obviously the Gymshark ones
03:46 have a little Gymshark logo there,
03:48 and the AliExpress ones don't.
03:50 Also the seam on the Gymshark ones
03:52 matches the color of the leggings
03:54 a lot better than the AliExpress ones.
03:56 The AliExpress ones are darker,
03:58 but I don't think that anyone would ever know.
04:00 Okay, so here's the back.
04:02 Eyelet detailing again is the same.
04:04 The booty contour is a bit more pronounced
04:07 on the AliExpress ones, but still very subtle.
04:10 And the rest looks like exactly the same.
04:13 There's a little shading on the bottom.
04:16 There's a few tiny differences,
04:17 but I don't think you would notice
04:18 unless you put them side by side.
04:20 So I'm gonna say exact dupe,
04:22 because a seam color is not gonna throw anyone off.
04:26 As for camel toe, you'll see each color,
04:29 but I don't think this is really a problem
04:30 with the Flawless Knit leggings.
04:32 They are very thin, so you are going to get panty lines.
04:35 So, and I would recommend wearing underwear with these,
04:37 just because I feel like they're so thin.
04:39 But because they're a seamless legging,
04:40 there's no seam down the middle,
04:42 so you're not really gonna have
04:43 that split camel type thing.
04:45 As for cellulite, I did mention
04:47 these are very lightweight leggings.
04:49 They're very thin, so you're not going to get
04:51 a whole lot of cellulite coverage with these.
04:53 But with the darker colors,
04:54 you're a little more saved from that.
04:56 And with all the colors, actually,
04:58 there is a little lower booty contour type thing
05:01 that adds a little extra compression right below the butt.
05:04 So it kind of helps if you have
05:05 that little double butt scenario.
05:07 That definitely assists with that.
05:08 But I wouldn't say these are
05:10 your cellulite-free compression leggings.
05:14 Now onto the individual colors.
05:15 So I first tried on the blue,
05:17 which I have the actual Gymshark blues.
05:20 And these feel exactly the same.
05:21 I wear a size small, and these are a size small,
05:24 and they fit just like my Gymshark ones.
05:26 These are also super stretchy.
05:28 I had no issue with pulling or anything on this color.
05:31 So yeah, these are definitely one of the stretchier colors.
05:33 And as for squat proof, okay,
05:35 so these leggings are very thin,
05:37 and I've reviewed Gymshark's flawless knits,
05:40 and none of them really are squat proof.
05:42 So, but the difference is, these are $12,
05:45 and if these $12 leggings can't be squat proof,
05:48 I can forgive that a little more than a pair of $55 leggings.
05:51 I have worn the blues on a leg day at the gym,
05:55 and I personally am okay with it.
05:56 Some of the other colors,
05:57 I wouldn't recommend doing a leg day.
05:59 But I would give the blues about a seven out of 10
06:02 for squat proofness.
06:03 So they're definitely not fully squat proof,
06:05 but they're also not like,
06:07 they're not like the yellow flawless knits
06:09 from actual Gymshark.
06:10 Okay, and now for the orange.
06:11 So the orange was kind of weird
06:13 because these felt like much tighter than the blues.
06:16 Like they almost felt like a different size.
06:18 So if you're between sizes,
06:20 or you just don't like your leggings too tight,
06:22 I would definitely recommend sizing up in the orange.
06:25 So I have a small in the orange,
06:27 but I really wish I had a medium.
06:28 So I also feel like the fabric on the orange ones
06:31 is slightly less stretchy,
06:32 so maybe a little bit more stiff.
06:34 And because these were so kind of like stiff
06:37 and stretch out on me,
06:38 the squat proofness wasn't great.
06:40 They were like,
06:40 I'd give this probably like a three out of 10 squat proof,
06:43 but I also would recommend sizing up in these.
06:46 And I had the orange Gymshark ones,
06:48 and those were very sheer as well.
06:50 Okay, the blacks.
06:51 The blacks, I actually give them a nine out of 10
06:53 squat proof.
06:54 In front of my ring light,
06:55 you can see like the tiniest bit of skin,
06:57 but I wore them to a leg day,
06:58 and like I looked in the mirror,
07:00 I could see absolutely nothing.
07:01 The sizing on the black ones,
07:02 I'd say is the same as the orange.
07:04 So I've mentioned this before about darker colored leggings.
07:07 I think that when there's a lot of dye in the leggings,
07:09 they just become a more stiff fabric.
07:11 So the black ones definitely are less stretchy than the blue.
07:15 And I would also say size up in these.
07:18 They just felt like pretty tight on me.
07:20 They fit in the waistband,
07:21 but like the whole legging,
07:23 I just felt like it was very stiff and tight.
07:24 So I would definitely say size up because of that,
07:27 just like the orange.
07:28 And the lavender.
07:29 Again, these are a very light color.
07:31 They're not very squat proof.
07:32 I'd say about a four out of 10.
07:34 You can probably wear some nude undies.
07:36 It'd be fine.
07:37 But I would probably stick to an upper body day for these.
07:40 And with these, they are also super stretchy
07:43 and felt just like the blues.
07:44 So I would definitely say true to size
07:46 for these lavender ones.
07:48 They were super stretchy and very comfy.
07:50 So overall for sizing,
07:51 I would say true to size on the blue and the lavender.
07:55 And if you are worried or you're in between sizes,
07:58 I would say size up on the orange and the black.
08:00 I don't know how that is for other AliExpress stores,
08:02 but definitely for the Miss Who store,
08:04 which are the cheapest ones,
08:06 I would say size up on the black and the orange.
08:08 So I hope you guys enjoyed this review.
08:11 I know a lot of you have been waiting for it.
