Fit and Fashion: Elevate Your Fitness Fashion with Women’s Sport Leggings

Some TFG readers swear by high-waist leggings that provide great support for the quads, buttocks and calves, and won’t slide down during a sweaty yoga class. Others recommend a pair of compression leggings, which are tighter and feature strategically positioned seams to prevent chafing.

If you enjoy outdoor activities like running, look for leggings made of reflective elements that improve visibility in low-light conditions. Many runners also appreciate the benefits of mesh fabric in their leggings, as it helps to ventilate the legs while you’re on a run or training session.

Many of the same readers who recommend high-performance leggings for the gym also love them as a travel garment. They advise packing a pair of workout leggings with a comfy long tee and sweater for comfort on the airplane, as well as a pair of sneakers and a hoodie or jacket to wear when sightseeing and shopping in new cities.
