These $25 Leggings Outperformed Leggings Over Four Times the Price in Our Tests

These compressive Lululemon leggings helps support you during strenuous, high-impact exercise like running or CrossFit. The hidden drawcord in the waistband holds this pair perfectly in place. One tester shared, “When I bent my body and moved around, the leggings stayed put.”

They come in a wide variety of options including 23-, 25-, 28- and 31-inch inseams and colors like blues, greens and browns. We recommend the version of these leggings with pockets if you love having your phone and essentials easily accessible, but note they are more expensive.

If I am heading to the gym, this is my go-to pair of leggings. Whether I’m lifting weights, jogging on the treadmill or doing a core workout, the waistband stays put without digging in. The snug fit is flattering and looks great in and out of the gym. They have a smooth feel, but are still soft to the touch, wicking away sweat easily even during high-impact workouts.

“These are my new favorite leggings,” said one tester, and several others echoed the sentiment. Testers loved the soft, smooth fabric that offers comfortable compression. It was fully opaque in our tests, making this pair totally “squat proof,” but some testers preferred a less compressive fit.

Up to the challenge of your sweatiest high-impact workouts, this pair proved to be durable. It showed minimal shrinkage after laundering and no pilling in our Lab evaluations. The fabric immediately wicked away moisture, so it will help to keep you dry.
