Fit
I chose a small, and they were a good fit. I'm 5'3" and they would work for someone much taller as well. But the tights bunched up comfortably and worked well even though they would also fit someone with longer legs.
Comfort
The waistband area was very comfortable. With most running tights, I feel like I can have a comfortable, soft waistband and constantly be yanking it back up during my run because the tights are falling down; OR I can have tights that stay put, but are kind of tight and leave a mark on my skin. These tights stayed put and were soft and comfortable on my waist.
Adjustability
They have a drawstring, but I did not use it.
Durability
I'm not sure on durability, since I haven't owned them long, but they seem very well constructed. I washed them and dried them in the dryer and there was no visible deterioration.
Value
These are pricey, but since you get such high quality, it's hard to complain. If you are looking for something to get you by and cover your legs, look on the clearance rack at the sporting goods store. But if you want something that really feels good and is well made, this is a good choice.
Appearance
They look good, I think.
Strengths
Overall, this is a very well-made product. The packaging was thoughtful, and they even offer to make a donation to charity if you go to their website with the item number after you receive it. Opening the package made me feel like I was getting a new iPhone. The presentation was beautiful. I enjoyed running in these, and had no chafing or rubbing.
Weakness
The only improvement they could make would be to consider increasing the size of the rear pocket. There is a zipper pocket on the back right side of the running tights, but it's not large enough for my iPhone 5 in an Otterbox case to fit in with the pocket zipped. I did stuff my phone in the pocket and leave the top of the phone sticking out a bit. Because the tights are so snug, this worked fine and the phone stayed put. The pocket would work great for energy gels or other supplies, but it was just so close to being able to work for a phone, but not quite there.

Quality of Construction
I could tell just by taking these running tights out of the package that they were very well made. The seams and stitching are top notch, and everything about them feels high quality and well constructed.
