Recently, I stumbled across social media ads for Betabrand and discovered their classy yoga pants that doubled as work pants. I was excited at the possibility of being able to wear yoga pants in a professional setting, so of course, I ordered 4 pairs!
Today, I’m going to go over all of my Betabrand reviews of various products I’ve ordered (all pants). I’ll also share my overall experience as well as info about pricing, sizing, and quality. I purchased these items from Betabrand with my own money and these are all my honest opinions.
Let’s get to it!

Betabrand Pants Reviews
Classic Bootcut Dress Pant Yoga Pants Review
With over 2500 reviews averaging 4.5 stars, I felt like I couldn’t go wrong with this purchase! These are truly amazing!
I highly recommend these, I feel like the bootcut style is on its way back and Betabrand is making it better than ever.
The stretchy material hugs my curves perfectly and, even at the end of a long day, they are still tight-fitting, which is a must for me. While both pairs of pants I got were a bit long, they were fine with small heels. I might try a petite size next time.
Classic Straight Leg Dress Pant Yoga Pants Review
This was another top-rated best-selling pant from Betabrand that was a must-have for me. I feel like the straight leg is a great option that never gets old.
It always looks good and isn’t as large of a fashion statement as the bootleg cut. Like the other pair, these were ultra-comfy and tight-fitting, while still looking professional enough to wear to the office.

Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
| – Extremely comfortable and flexible – Business professional – Tons of styles to choose from – Stretchy without sagging – Can be used for both work and exercise – Makes legs and butt look great (but still professional) – Warmer than typical leggings because they are thicker – Frequent first order deals (I got 30% off) | – Price ($70+ per pair) – Costs extra for the pants with pockets – Fake pockets on the regular pair are a little obvious – Petite size only means shorter – Girls with a larger butt or pear-shaped body might want to size up – A lot of reviewers think petite sizes are still too long |
Let’s get into the specifics of the leggings/pants. I will give my reviews of the short petite & petite sizing that I purchased. Additionally, I’ll share what I’ve learned from reading 400+ reviews for the other sizing options to ensure you’re getting the best Betabrand Reviews.
How Do Betabrand Pants Fit?
Overall Fit: I’d rate the fit an 8/10!
These Betabrand pants were very form-fitting without being too revealing. They made my booty look great! I do have a decent-sized butt, but not huge (if you do have a big butt, they might be too tight and you may have to size up, or else they may be “too revealing” for work).
Even their normal fit might be too tight depending on your office environment, but you can always wear a tunic over them so you can still wear these comfy pants!
Shape
I found that they’re form-fitting around the hips and tight on the waist, which is great if you have an hourglass shape. If you have more of a pear shape with a big booty, you might have to size up as mentioned previously.
Also, since they fit tight on the waist, it can cause a little bit of a muffin top that you might not like. Some don’t mind, but do keep this in mind when picking a size.
Length
Betabrand has inseams ranging from 28’’ to 34’’ (my pair was a little longer than listed on the chart listed). However, I didn’t have a huge issue with this because they are easy to pull up due to the tight-fitting fabric around the hips. They also were the perfect length when paired with heels.
I’ve seen a lot of Betabrand reviews that say their pants were far too long when they got them, but they shrunk to the perfect size after washing.
Short Petite, Petite, Regular & Long are all the same hip and waist size. The only difference you will notice is in the inseam.
I always love when brands offer special sizing for petite size women! This was a bonus for me when I started browsing their styles, so you can understand that I was a little disappointed to find out that this sizing only indicated the length of the leggings and pants. Nonetheless, I was still excited to try the pants that would soon be the best pants I owned.
Your Torso size will determine the fit–if you have a normal torso, you will find out that it will be a perfect fit! Long torsos will have more of a low rise fit, and smaller torsos will be high-waisted. I’m 5”4 and they were a little high-waisted, which was just the right amount.
Is Betabrand Good Quality?
I’d honestly rate the quality a 9/10!
After wearing a few of their different styles nearly daily for the past 6+ months (they’re just so comfy), I can tell you that Betabrand makes a high-quality product. The fabric is super thick that keeps its elasticity, plus they don’t fade or fray after washing. You will have no underwear lines with these.
Most other leggings I’ve purchased lose their stretchiness in the first few months if I wear them often, then they start to fade. But, I do typically buy leggings less than half the price of these, so you get what you pay for.
Is Betabrand Worth It?
As mentioned earlier, the price is definitely on the high side of things compared to shopping for athletic pants somewhere like Fabletics or Victoria’s Secret.
However, they are a high-end activewear brand that essentially combines two pant styles in one (dress pants and comfy yoga pants). If you take into consideration how much dress pants cost, it makes it a little easier to justify the purchase.
This is the math I had to do to make myself feel better about spending $79 per pair of Betabrand pants.
It would typically cost me $40 for a pair of good yoga pants and another $50 – $60 for a nice pair of work dress pants that last a long time. This totals $90 – $110, so the fact that I could get these two in one pants for a lower price made it easy for me to go ahead and try them out.
If you’re used to buying more spendy brands like Lululemon that are around the same price as Betabrand, you shouldn’t hesitate to try them out–you pretty much get two pants for the price of one!
Shipping
The shipping speed was great. My items shipped 2 days after purchasing and took another 3 to get to me. 5 days to receive an item after the purchase isn’t bad!
Note: If you have a preordered item, it will take much longer to get to you! I purchased one pre-ordered item and it took almost 6 weeks to arrive.
Betabrand Returns
Fortunately, I didn’t have to return any of my pants. For those that do want to make a return, here are the basics.
- You can return or exchange up to 60 after receiving them for a full refund OR 110% store credit
- Must be unworn and unwashed
- Exchange can only be made for the same item, just a different size
- Can take up to two weeks to process exchanges
- You have to pay to send it back in the mail, or you can do an in-person return if they have a location near you
- Purchased from the “Last Chance” sale page are final sale and not able to be returned.
Pro tip: If you want to exchange your item, just refund and buy again to avoid lengthy processing times.
If you make an in-person return and choose store credit, you’ll get some extra store credit to spend since they give 110% back! I thought this was very unique and interesting.
Overall Thoughts
It’s been a few months since I’ve purchased from Betabrand and they are currently some of my favorite pants I own. Not just because they are comfortable, but they also make me feel really good about myself. I’ve always had a hard time finding work pants that fit me well in the legs. Since these are essentially thicker yoga pants, they make my legs and butt look really good.
Overall, I would highly recommend these to anyone that has an active lifestyle that also works in a corporate or office setting. They have just about every style you could imagine, making it easy to fit into your current wardrobe. I’ve never been able to go straight from work to a yoga class, but I can with these bad boys!
