It's come to my attention that I talk about workout clothing a lot, especially leggings. But being that I spend a majority of my time in workout gear, I think it's OK. I've tested numerous pairs of leggings over the years, and the two features that are extremely important, in my opinion, are functionality and comfort.
I want my leggings to be able to withstand everything from powerlifting to Pilates, but also be comfortable enough to lounge around in. Ahead, you'll find my go-to leggings that are great for training, but also great when your only goal is ultimate relaxation.
1 2XU Women's Hi-Rise Comp Tights
2XU is known for its compression leggings, and what I love the most about the 2XU Women's Hi-Rise Comp Tights ($90) is that they don't feel like compression tights at all. They're extremely soft and comfortable and can be worn while doing everything from yoga to HIIT workouts. Plus, if you're searching for cosy leggings, these get the job done.
2 Under Armour Meridian Crop
The Under Armour Meridian Crop ($60) leggings are soft, comfortable, and sweat-wicking, which is rare to find in a single pair of leggings. I also love these leggings because they're supportive with a barely-there feel.
3 Nike Yoga Luxe 7/8 Tights
I've never cared to wear leggings specifically designed for yoga, but after trying the Nike Yoga Luxe 7/8 Tights ($100), I plan on wearing them to every yoga class. No matter what pose you're doing, they won't budge and they are extremely soft.
4 Girlfriend Collective High Waist 7/8 Leggings
The Girlfriend Collective High Waist 7/8 Leggings ($68) are so comfy, they can be worn for any event — yoga, HIIT, brunch, running errands, or movie night.
