Best gym wear brand (specifically leggings!)

36 replies

It’s time to finally get myself back in the gym. I’m currently size 16-18 and none of my old gym clothes fit me😣
i want some good quality high waisted leggings that won’t keep slipping down and aren’t see through. I prefer the smooth feeling rather than shiny feeling leggings if that makes sense? 😅
any recommendations?

I think they are! I've tried lululemon, M&S, gym shark, fabletics, varley, nike and new balance

Nike Pro, never fall down. I get the ones with the elastic waistband. So comfortable and weirdly flattering. Last years too.

Only ones I've found that I don't spend all session pulling up as they've slid down.

I really like the Fabletics ones I’ve tried, but you do have to remember to cancel the subscription because otherwise it gets expensive. I have the PureLuxe ones in black and navy and they’re flattering, squat proof and the wide waistband is comfortable for Pilates/yoga.

Another sweaty Betty power lover here, sales and discount codes are pretty frequent. Sign up to the SB insiders mail list for discounts.
But I also rate my H&M move leggings (all their sports wear really) and got a pair of M&S good move recently which are a great thick fabric similar to the SB ones.

Sweetly Betty hands down.

Last forever, no sagging, flattering. Best I've had by some way (and I've got loads)

Exactly this

Definitely Sweaty Betty for me too but M and S are great for a cheaper option

Are sweaty betty really that good? they are so spendy!!!!

They have a lot of sales so I have managed to get them for around £30 and they are definitely worth that.

Thank you so much for the suggestions. Will investigate!

Oysho.

Fabletics but you have to deal with their con membership system. I order regularly enough that I just log in and skip each month but you can call them up and cancel the membership after you order.

Fabletics powerhold. Nothing comes close. Never roll down, never sag and never see through.

Same.
