About this deal

To find the best workout leggings, we conducted six separate tests in The Verywell Testing Lab and at home, evaluating 98 pairs of workout leggings. We wore, worked out in, and washed the leggings, assessing them for quality, fit, feel, opacity, durability, and overall value. And we gave them a score between 1 (would not recommend) and 5 (highly recommend) in those key categories.

Overall, we tested 14 pairs of squat-proof leggings, but ultimately left one out of our final list of recommendations. While we did find some notable features, this pair didn’t quite make the cut. What I thought when testing? I've long been a fan of New Balance kit - they're the sponsor of the London Marathon and so always design styles that really function in sweaty situations.

What to look for in a pair of gym leggings

In May 2023, the Center for Environmental Health (CEH) announced that it found high levels of BPA in some polyester-spandex leggings. BPA (Bisphenol A) is a chemical found in certain plastics. And research has found that high exposure to it can cause health complications like obesity, hormonal imbalance, and uterine cancer. We would never knowingly recommend products that cause harm. But right now, scientists are still studying the transdermal effects of BPA, and none of the leggings the CEH cited have been recalled. Ultimately, none of those leggings made our final list. But we may recommend products like them. Finally, we combined our expert interviews, thorough research, and rigorous testing to compile a list of the 13 best squat-proof leggings for our readers. and below: We don't recommend workout leggings with this rating; you won't find any on our list. We Also Tested

Similar to the two Adapt Leggings on our list, these offer maximum compression and a snug, high-rise waistband—great for working out but uncomfortable for lounging. Because the leggings are so compressive, they felt slightly small when we first put them on. If you prefer a less compressive fit, we recommend sizing up. After our thorough test in the Lab, we took the leggings home to see how well they held up in our regular routines: Working out, running errands, lounging, and more. We also washed them several times, according to Gymshark’s care instructions. After four weeks of wear and washes, we rated each pair of leggings on a scale of 1 (would not recommend) to 5 (highly recommended) for quality, opacity, fit, performance, and value. We used these scores to create our final list of recommendations. When we tested lululemon leggings, the brand’s Wunder Train Leggings earned a perfect score (5 out of 5) in every key category. They’re comfortable, supportive, and easy to clean—and they’re some of the best workout leggings that lululemon sells. Gymshark's Vital Seamless 2.0 Leggings wowed us with their comfortable, smooth fit that's seam-free—making for a flattering and sleek silhouette. When wearing these, we noticed that they allow you to move freely, without feeling constricted. And the material strikes a great balance between stretch and compression, making them comfortable for a wide range of activities.Gymshark has several collections, including the Vital, Adapt, Sweat, Seamless, Elevate, Legacy, and GS Power Collections that we tested. Every line has its own blend of fabrics, but each of them includes some combination of nylon, polyester, and elastane. All of the Gymshark leggings we tested have a 30.5-inch inseam. The length hit our taller testers above the ankle and our shorter testers at or below the ankle. In some cases, the 30.5-inch inseam was too long for testers below 5 feet, 2. inches

With a range of cuts and colourways available, our high-quality workout leggings will inspire you to perform at your best. Is There a Difference Between Gym Leggings and Regular Leggings? Certified personal trainer, Claudette Sariya, NASM-CPT, agrees that Beyond Yoga’s Spacedye Leggings are the most comfortable pair she owns. But you should know that we noticed that the fabric along the crotch area began to pill after about one month of wearing and washing.

We don’t appreciate the visibility of underwear lines when wearing these leggings (especially in the blue color we tested). And we wouldn’t recommend this pair for shorter wearers because the waistband is too high.

We also love the cuffed ankle look that looks flattering on all wearers. But, if you’re on the taller side, the inseam may be too short for you. In that case, we recommend lululemon’s Wunder Train High-Rise Tight. As a comfortable, flattering, and versatile pant, seamless leggings can be worn for exercise, lounging, and everything in between. They are perfect for elevating your workouts, but also providing comfort on those much-needed rest days. Different from traditional leggings,—made from sewn-together fabrics—seamless leggings are made from a single piece of fabric that's knitted together, creating a smooth, breathable, and second-skin feel.Our high-waisted gym leggings are a popular choice with our community, as they are breathable, designed to support you as you work out and flatter your physique. Whether you want to work out or chill out, this type of sports legging will work with you. If there were more room for maternity leggings on our list, STORQ’s Signature Maternity Leggings would’ve made the cut. The leggings felt incredibly soft, stretchy, and supportive. But the belly area became slightly less opaque when stretched.
