Top Yoga Leggings
For many women, finding the perfect pair of yoga leggings can be like locating a needle in a haystack. They have to be comfortable, breathable, and supportive enough to wear during your yoga class or workout, but stylish enough to pair with a top to hang out with friends, run errands, or travel. Here are four pairs that make the grade.

Most Comfortable
ColorfulKoala Women’s High Waisted Pattern Leggings Full-Length Yoga Pants
Soft and Breathable
With a variety of colors and patterns, there’s a pair for everyone.
What We Liked
These yoga pants are easy to move and stretch in. They feel supple and keep their shape class after class. They flatter many body types, thanks to their supportive (but not constricting!) high rise waist. They go great with no-gym outfits, too, and look and feel much more expensive than their actual price. Available on Amazon.

Made from a nylon/spandex blend that wicks away moisture (read: sweat), these leggings help you feel cool and dry during your workout. The wide waistband prevents slipping during vigorous training sessions and help them fit like a glove but not too tight. Available now.
