These are awesome for working out. They’re thick, they stretch and they’re really comfortable. The ankle band doesn’t roll up, it stays down. They don’t roll up to my knees, even if I sleep in them, unless I roll them up. The end of the drawstring is coated in plastic so when they’re washed, the drawstring doesn’t get pulled in or out, of the gathered waistband, it stays in place. I’m all about utility. These are well-made and multipurpose. These sweats rock!
