Heidi wrote: "I'm writing a review solely based on the disgusting ad for these leggings. SHAME ON YOU!! I will never, EVER buy anything from this seller and will tell EVERYONE I know (including social media posts) not to buy them either. YOU DON'T SELL THINGS BY INSULTING PEOPLE! Good luck, you're going to need it."
