Do you have those gathered bum-enhancing gym, leggings?

[FizzyLaser]

Initially to say, I’m sure all your bottoms are very nice and I’m not jealous of them. Blah blah blah.

But do you not feel slightly exposed wearing them?

Only if i wear pink.

It's a trend that will pass soon enough

DD2 decided they were called 'cleftal horizon' leggings and since then I struggle not to chortle whenever I see them.

This hilarious.
just sometimes if you’re walking behind people, no matter how perfect their bum is, I just feel like they’re half dressed

There’s a school mum that wears these. They really emphasise her bum, it looks like a massive peach!!

The thing is, you can’t stop looking at her arse in them

I don't think that I would find them comfortable.
Like thongs, really.

I have some Gymshark ones that, when I ordered them, I didn't realise they had a bum scrunch bit. I tried them on and DH said "WTF is that? It looks like your bum hole!" 😂 I mean, it does look weird but TBF I think I'd need to go the docs if my actual bum hole was in that location.

I only wear them with a long jumper. I double check now, if I order from Gymshark that the leggings aren't the bum scrunch type.

I hope so!

If they are worn for actually working out and they are a paler colour, the gathered bit can show up sweat, badly.

In some instances, like the pale ones, it’s like just wearing a G string

The very phrase 'scrunch bum' should have seen them launched into the sun from the moment they were invented.

I own (too) many pairs of scrunch leggings

They have to be of the thin scrunch variety though (like Alphalete amplify or Oner active), and NOT the ones with ruched fabric that basically looks like a sphincter

What is it about them you like? Are you worried about how your bum presents to other people?

I just find images like this, utterly confusing

There’s a mum who wears them at my DCs school, and I find myself staring at her bum too! They just draw your eyes, but I suppose that’s the point of them.

Does your vulva not announce itself?

maybe you’re vulva and proud?

oh I dunno

Why confusing, they aren’t bum scrunch? Other than the colour I don’t get the issue with those in particular? I’ve a pair like that in black, but I have a home gym,

Wedgie leggings

I just googled these, and while I see the difference between these and the ruched ones, on the model they just look like they're too small and she's got a really bad wedgie! Do they not chafe when you're exercising?

Is there a men's version of these?

Was talking to a friend about these. Both of us too old to wear them but we couldn’t work out how they work. Could someone explain please or post a picture of the inner design?

😂😂

But…. Why? Just why?

These haven’t made it to my neck of the woods but then we are all still wearing skinny jeans.

They’re a bit like codpieces aren’t they, but for women in a different age. Eye catching alright.

A few of the mums at our school wear them. Found myself walking behind one the other day and for the life of me could not understand why she felt the need to highlight her arse crack
