Forme Sculpt+Legging for $118<\/a>:<\/strong> Forme\u2019s Sculpt+Leggings are designed with a multi-panel waistband and layers of tensile fabric that are meant to tug your hips, spine, and core into better alignment. The company claims this design helps activate muscle memory and improve proprioception, with endorsements from physicians for lower back pain, hip stiffness, and postpartum recovery. I didn\u2019t transform into a Pilates instructor overnight, but I did feel a subtle lift in my core and a bit less slouchy while wearing them. They\u2019re more of a reminder to be mindful of your posture<\/a>, but they won\u2019t do the work for you. It may be a placebo, but it is a comfy one at that. They\u2019re snug and supportive without squeezing your midsection, which isn\u2019t always the case with compression wear.<\/p>\n

On Active Tights for $75<\/a>:<\/strong> I recently started strength training to support my running and climbing, and because I don\u2019t want my bones to crumble into a pile of dust<\/a> as I get older. These leggings<\/a> are my favorite pick for lifting at the gym. They\u2019re composed of 68 percent recycled polyamide and 32 percent elastane, and they feel incredibly silky on, are lightweight and breathable, but also, somehow supportive. I don\u2019t feel self-conscious when doing squats or taking a rest break. They also have a pocket that fits my iPhone 16, so I have somewhere to put my phone when I\u2019m moving from machine to machine. \u2014Adrienne So<\/em><\/p>\n

Lululemon Align High-Rise Pant with Pockets for $128<\/a>:<\/strong> These workout leggings check most of our boxes: four-way stretch, sweat-wicking, and full coverage. They\u2019re technically yoga pants, but I prefer wearing them when I\u2019m working from home or running errands. I also love wearing these for a flight. The light compression is more of a snug hug than active support. That said, the fabric tends to pill and collect lint over time. Also, if pockets aren’t a must-have for you, the standard Align High-Rise Pant<\/a> may be a smarter purchase. The pocketed model runs $20 to $30 more than the original, depending on the color (kind of insane).<\/p>\n

Gymshark Legacy Regular Leggings for $54<\/a>:<\/strong> These are my deadlift darlings. Soft, stretchy, and squat-proof. The sculpted waistband and internal bum scrunch add just enough flattering lift without feeling like an uncomfortable wedgie. At $54<\/a>, they’re a steal compared to many competitors, so I don’t sweat the price tag while I’m sweating in them. Unfortunately, I’ve owned these for about a year now, and some of the stitching is undone.<\/p>\n

Gymshark Mesh Waistband Leggings for $50<\/a>:<\/strong> I like the Gymshark Mesh Waistband Leggings for weight-lifting, though I prefer the Legacy leggings overall. The mesh waistband holds everything in place, but it also digs into the skin\u2014it’s not painful, just odd. The bum scrunch is a little more pronounced than the Legacy and not as comfortable for all-day wear.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nike Women’s Go High-Waisted 7\/8 Leggings with Pockets for $73<\/a>:<\/strong> I run almost every day, and these are the best leggings I\u2019ve ever had. I get sad when these are in the wash. While the fabric composition is a fairly standard mix of nylon and spandex, the Nike Infinalock treatment is unique. It feels almost like wearing an extremely thin wetsuit, and yes, this is a good thing. I feel totally locked in. Nothing sags, nothing jiggles, and the seams are flat, so you don\u2019t have anything pilling or rubbing in between your legs (ew, sorry). There are plenty of pockets, even though I don\u2019t really use those while running, and a drawcord for keeping the leggings cinched up. I hate yanking my leggings up! There\u2019s no reason for this! We have the technology! \u2014Adrienne So<\/em><\/p>\n

SPANXshape Booty Boost 7\/8 Leggings for $98<\/a>:<\/strong> Let’s start with what I like. The center-seam-free design is fabulous (no gusset checks). I’ve sported them to heated workouts, and they dried faster than expected. But when it comes to the \u201cbooty boost\u201d promise, I just didn’t see it. I’ve gotten more of a noticeable lift from my Gymshark<\/a> and Fanka leggings<\/a>. The contoured waistband does offer decent core support, but the lining creates an unflattering design. And while compression is a hallmark of Spanx, in this case, it feels uncomfortably tight and unflattering. So tight that sizing up is strongly recommended.<\/p>\n

prAna Heavana 7\/8 Leggings for $89<\/a>:<\/strong> These are a good alternative to the On gym leggings above for under $100. The description makes them sound like they\u2019re ultrasoft and for lounging, but they\u2019re actually very thin and breathable, and the big waistband means they don\u2019t roll down while you\u2019re moving. I would feel a little self-conscious lounging on the sofa in these, but they\u2019re great for working out. \u2014Adrienne So<\/em><\/p>\n
