Finding the right pair of leggings is a daunting, yet inevitable task. We might not always need a new sundress or a great pair of heels, but a comfortable legging is required always. From running errands to exercise and even going out (we’re looking at you, leather), there’s nothing they can’t do. Because I work in wellness, I’m constantly researching what the best ones on the market are as well as trying them on for size. I’m looking out for comfort level, how durable they are during exercise, how good they look on, and design quality. On top of this, I also love to be able to transition from task to task in leggings, so a good stretch is always key as well.
Compiling a master list when you’ve got over 30 plus pairs of leggings is difficult, but these are my absolute favorite exercise leggings that I’m constantly wearing to yoga, the gym, or on a grocery run. You’ll be surrounded by the stretch, flexibility, and softness that all the leggings in the world couldn’t give you. From Amodrn’s own exercise line to Year Of Our’s, keep reading below for the absolute top leggings I cannot live without!
