12 Very Best Yoga Pants for Guys (No Matter Your Style)
The most sweat-wicking and stylish options at every price.

After a multi-year “accidental” field test involving bike commutes, coaching PE, and chasing toddlers, the best men’s yoga pants for overall performance and daily wear are the Alo Yoga Co-Op Pant. We also highly recommend the Quince Flowknit Performance Jogger as a stellar budget-friendly alternative that offers high-end moisture-wicking and stretch at a fraction of the cost.
You may think that the best yoga pants for men need to help you move unrestricted. And they do. But I can tell you from experience that they also need to support you in other ways, including wicking sweat, preventing chafing, and helping you make it through your practice (and maybe even the rest of your day) without distracting annoyances.
I should know—I live in men’s yoga pants. As a PE teacher, coach, and mindfulness director at a PK-8 school who commutes to work on my bike, I spend my days bending, stretching, and otherwise moving with my students. And with two little kids at home, I’m always in some sort of yoga pose, whether it’s bend-under-the-table-to-pick-up-a-dropped-fork pose or something more traditional.

Although some guys prefer the freedom and flow of shorts for their practice, especially for hot yoga, others opt for the coverage of pants. The last several years of my life have essentially been spent rigorously testing the best yoga pants for men (whether those tests were intentional or not), and I’ve been taking notes.
Updated February 2026: We checked that all of these men’s yoga pants were still in stock and updated prices.

Best Daily Driver
Alo Yoga Co-Op Pant
+ Loose fit
+ Breathability
– Hot fabric
The Co-Op Pant is made from a nylon-elastane blend that’s not too thin and not too thick. That midweight fabric makes it the ideal weight for everyday wear. They aren’t too tight, nor are they too baggy, allowing for unrestricted movement with some abrasion resistance as well. That versatile fit as well as breathability, elastane stretch fabric, and zippered pockets help the pants excel at most physical pursuits, whether a yoga session, bike ride, or trip to the gym. Bonus: they don’t look like pajamas, nor do they look like sweats.
That said, for particularly intense yoga or workout sessions involving a lot of perspiration and forward bends, these probably aren’t the best yoga pants for men—they’ll feel too heavy.
Best Budget Yoga Pants for Men
Quince Flowknit Performance Jogger
+ Relatively low price
+ Made from recycled material
– Super thin
Lower prices are sometimes attained because of cut corners, but I continue to be astounded by the quality-to-price-point ratio of the Quince Flowknit line. The jogger is quick-drying, lightweight, and stretchy. In other words, it checks almost all the boxes. You seriously would not be able to tell from the design that it’s less than half the price of most comparable men’s yoga pants. It’s also made largely of recycled polyester in a nod to sustainability.
The fabric is fairly thin, so the jogger might not stand up to more rigorous uses, but it’ll certainly stand up (or lay down or twist) on the mat.
Best Men’s Yoga Pants for the Gym and Yoga Studio
Ten Thousand Interval Jogger
+ Perforated panels
+ Four-way stretch
– Not for casual wear
The perforated panels and Odorblock treatment means the Interval Jogger is something you can break a sweat in and not worry. Its exceptional four-way stretch allows for dynamic movement, which means you can squat (or Malasana) your heart out in this men’s jogger. The fit is a tad on the sporty side—meaning looser and stretchier—for a more casual look. For most people who don’t teach PE, these won’t qualify as all-day wear, although they do excel for any fitness needs. Did I mention the zippered pocket is large enough for your phone?
Most Durable
Lululemon ABC Jogger
+ Durable AF
+ Four-way stretch
– Slim fit
I’ve had the same pair of ABC Joggers since 2020. Aside from one loose thread in the ankle cuff, they look pretty much the same as the day I got them—despite the fact that I’ve done pretty much everything in these pants, including yogaing, bike commuting, coaching, running, even changing diapers. The four-way stretch, excellent balance of durability and comfort, and plenty of sizing options in both waist and inseam make the ABCs a classic in my book.
These men’s yoga pants come in a fairly slim fit which won’t work for everyone. They’re available in longer and shorter options to help you dial in the length.
Best Lightweight Yoga Pants for Men
Vuori Fleet Sport Jogger
+ Lightweight
+ Moisture-wicking
– Less resilient
The Vuori Jogger is fleet indeed. The super lightweight, moisture-wicking, springy fabric made from 21 percent elastane makes it feel like you’re not really wearing men’s yoga pants at all. Of course, you are, although these fall right on the shorts/pants boundary. On a recent bike ride, the cargo zip pocket was the perfect place to put my sunglasses while on the move.
The Sport Jogger stains easily. Accidental contact with my bike chain has left a dark streak near the cuff that won’t come off no matter how many times I wash it, limiting how often I wear these. But when it’s time for dynamic movement, they more than meet the need.
Best for Cool Climates
Ibex Nomad Jogger
+ Lightweight
+ Comfy
– Cool weather only
If, like me, you live in joggers, this is the perfect excuse to never take them off. The lightweight but temperature-regulating pants are as cozy as they are performance-worthy. You probably won’t get away with wearing these 95 percent French terry merino and 5 percent elastane joggers to dinner out or to the office, but for all other cool weather pursuits, they more than suffice.
The Nomad Joggers come in a slim fit that goes from a S to an XXL. There are no extra features, like phone or cargo pockets, but for working up a sweat or cozying up by a fire they’ll more than fit the bill.
Best Slim Fit
Warrior Addict Bodhi Pant
+ Soft
+ Zippered pocket
– Almost legging-like fit
When my wife first saw me in these, she asked if they were leggings. Rest assured, the Bodhi Pants are not as snug as leggings, although they are pretty form-fitting. Which you won’t mind at all because the 90 percent recycled polyester and 10 percent Spandex fabric is absurdly soft.
For the express purposes of doing yoga, these men’s yoga pants are as good as it gets. They feature a hidden zippered pocket so you won’t lose your keys while inverted, and the fit is right for any asana (pose) in the book. Given their form-fitting nature, however, I wouldn’t feel comfortable wearing them much beyond the mat. And moisture tends to show up on the fabric for a little while before it dries, so beware excess sweat or inadvertent spills.
Best Roomy Fit
prAna Discovery Trail Jogger
+ Ample stretch
+ Comfy
– Too much fabric for biking
A flowy, generous pant, the Discovery Trail Jogger not only has ample room, it has ample stretch, so you can move in these yoga pants for me without feeling restricted in any way. Even the waist felt a little wider than other pants in my size, although the drawstring easily cinched it down and kept everything in check. These are a comfy alternative to super streamlined joggers, but maybe don’t bike in them, as that excess fabric likely won’t make friends with the chain.
Best Roomy Fit on a Budget
All in Motion Siro Ponte Jogger
+ Loose and comfy
+ Breathable fabric
– Not all-day attire
The cotton and recycled polyester blend on these joggers is soft and stretchy, and the zippered side pockets and spacious fit lend themselves to freedom of movement. These also received high marks from online reviewers who appreciate the durability and quality at a fair price. Commenters did note how roomy these are, so they are not an advisable choice for those seeking a slim fit. In addition, the midweight fabric is going to be too hot for any extended yoga sessions.
Most Breathable
Reigning Champ Solotex Mesh Tiebreak Slim Pant
+ Loose and comfy
+ Breathable fabric
– Not all-day attire
I was introduced to Reigning Champ’s Solotex Mesh fabric by way of a t-shirt. It’s the one I launder the most because it’s the first shirt I reach for thanks to its plush and breathable texture. Seeing how well it held up, I tried the bottom half version of it, the Slim Pant. It’s not only airy but has 50+ UPF, zippered pockets, and a gusseted crotch for maximizing your movement. These are men’s yoga pants that manage to feel lux and functional at once.
The fit is slim and the look is casual, so these are less of an all-day option and more of an on-the-mat option. But you’ll be comfortable whenever you’re wearing them.
Most Stylish Men’s Yoga Pants
Yoga Crow Journey Pants
+ Style points
+ Sustainable
– Pockets are unzippered
Maybe it’s the fitted calves, maybe it’s the fact that these are made in LA, maybe it’s the aura that arises from being completely at ease in your choice of trousers. Whatever it is, the Journey Pants manage to elevate whatever you’re wearing. These are a stylish and sustainable (Blue Sign Certified) option for when you’re looking to differentiate yourself on the mat. The sizable pockets can hold your valuables, although the lack of zippers means you need to beware of goods falling out while on the move. Note that the thin fabric is much more suited to warm weather.
Most Comfortable Yoga Pants for Men
MUNICIPAL Training Camp Pro Pants
+ Soft feel
+ Comfy fit
– Hot
Ah, the joys of stretch fleece. So soft you could use it as a pillow, so dynamic you could wear it while doing a split (if, unlike me, that’s a movement you can do without necessitating a 911 call). It’s hard to tell if the Training Camp Pro Pants are loungewear you sweat in, or sweatwear you can lounge in. Either way, the zippered rear pocket, reinforced knee seams, and wickability are fantastic for movement, while the unconstricted fit and sumptuous feel are perfectly suited to lazy Sundays. But don’t bust these out for hot yoga or you might melt.
