What is mid. Rise waist?

Mid rise, in this case, I think, refers to the length. Below the knee yet a little higher than mid calf. Personally, just right for hiking in a warm climate. On me, they fasten at the waist. Hope this helps. I am 5ft 6in. tall.

It has a slightly less than 1/4 inch rise toward the center, not quite flat. ( 2/10ths of an inch).

Hi Carol J. the middle line is raised about an 1/8" or less however the unit is wide enough for my size 9 feet. The line does not get in the way for me and I really didn't notice it until you mentioned it.

I'm very high waisted also and the large sits up on my natural waist above my belly button. Do not know the rise off hand

I think the rise is pretty average. At least, it they fit me that way. I do have a somewhat higher rise than average, though.

It slides in between. It's a beautiful fit and nice fabric. You'll love it. Hope this helps.

It is adjustable. I have a 42" waist and it fits me perfectly. It has enough room to tighten/loosen several sizes up/down.

It has 3 adjustments. But still may be at waist level for you. See if you can find it at a local store to check it out. Amazon had the best price.

Yes, the middle is a bit lighter. Not much. Be sure not to put it in the dryer. I didn't read directions and it shrunk a lot. Got it back on but it was a struggle

It is the middle panty liner. I think at one time they made a longer one but I can no longer find it. The middle length is sufficient for me.

I felt the exact same way. I tried lowering the belt lower than the manual recommended and began to feel more in the middle. Also strapping it down tighter and gettign up to the max volts helped. It's not defective, but I don't believe we feel it in our middle abs as much because those are typically stronger than the sides.

Jack makes a good point. When I started using mine I kind of had to find the feel for it and pushing your weight forward on the waist pad (while keeping your back straight) helps a little too. It's kind of like moonwalking in place hence his tip on not picking your foot up, just the heel.

The belt is white. The pants are normal elastic waist with a drawstring. They're not like some gis I've seen with the weird "potato sack" drawstring that's open and never really stays tied... We've had these gis for 6 months and they've held up very well. We wash them 2x a week and they don't even show any wear or fading.

Not sure of the answer but the asker means whether the sitting surface is so angled down toward the inner center that your behind, and therefore most of your body weight, rests mainly on the raised outer edge of the seat, uncomfortable to many people compared to a relatively flat (i.e. traditional) seat. If you looked at a cross-section of this type of seat, it's high angle surface would form a shallow V-shape.

They have a elastic band in them. I wear a 32 in the waist and its tight enough I don't have to wear a belt so I would get the next size up in the waist of I was you

It takes getting used to but it is not impossible in my opinion. The importance is to have support for your mid section. Don't over do additional weight such as dumb bells or kettle bells. Good buy for the price.
