Pros
- Flattering design
- Fun color options
Cons
- Not as many sizes
Yoga pants are back, baby—but with an update that brings the Y2k staple into 2022. These have a super flattering high waist as well as a split hem which helps make the flare bigger, and makes your legs appear longer. The fabric is buttery soft, and they have a waistband pocket for holding essentials during a long walk.
Key Specs

| Colors | 8 |
| Materials | Nylon, lycra |
Pros
- Super soft
- Lots of color options
Cons
- Some don't like the new double-lined design
The Align leggings are among Lululemon's most recognizable pieces of apparel—and with good reason. Not only are they incredibly comfortable and flattering, but they are also great for walking, low-impact sports, and daily wear, in addition to their primary purpose as yoga pants. They also come in multiple length and color options, so it's easy to find one that's right for you.
Key Specs
| Sizes | 0-20 |
| Colors | 17 |
| Materials | Nylon, lycra |
Pros
- Comfortable, relaxed fit
- Moisture-wicking
Cons
- May feel too heavy for some workouts
If you prefer your workout pants to have a looser fit, you may like this jogger. These are a bit of a thicker, more sweatpant-like material, but they are also moisture-wicking, so if you want to wear them to work out, they won't pool your sweat. They also have a drawstring, which helps keep them up and secure when you're walking or doing cardio.
Key Specs
| Sizes | 0-20 |
| Colors | 9 |
| Materials | Nylon, lycra |
Pros
- Thick and durable
- Lots of pockets
Cons
- Won't protect your legs as much as a more durable hiking pant
As temperatures drop, you will want to swap out your hiking shorts for a pant or legging. These are flexible yet durable, which means they will stay comfortable as you clock mile after mile, and you don't have to worry about brushing up against a rock wall or pricker bush, thanks to their abrasion-resistant fabric. These also have multiple pockets, giving you plenty of room to keep your essentials, from keys to gels, within reach.
Key Specs
| Sizes | 0-20 |
| Colors | 1 |
| Materials | Nylon, lycra |
Pros
- Thick, supportive fit
- Soft to the touch
Cons
- Runs small
A lot of Lululemon's leggings are focused on light exercise and yoga, but these cross-training leggings were made to work. Made with Everlux fabric, these are designed to be soft to the touch, and they dry faster and more efficiently than the brand's other fabrics. These have four-way stretch that moves with the body, and a tie at the waistband keeps them from falling down.

Lululemon All the Right Places High-Rise Drawcord Waist Crop 23
Pros
- Won't move around
- Fabric designed for friction reduction
Cons
- Not a ton of color options
These leggings are extra high-waisted and have a drawstring at the waist, which helps keep them snug and secure when you're running. The fabric has four-way stretch and is both moisture-wicking and low-friction, which makes them feel like a second skin. The slight crop also keeps a bit of ankle skin bare, which can keep you cooler, and the leggings have both back and side pockets.
Key Specs
| Sizes | 0-14 |
| Colors | 9 |
| Materials | Nylon, lycra |
Pros
- Super comfortable fit
- Unique, elevated design
Cons
- May be too long on shorter people
Prefer a looser fit? These are the pants for you. Perfect for yoga—or just lounging around—they have a snug high waist with a drawstring, and a wide-leg fit. They are incredibly soft and lightweight, and have both four-way stretch and lycra, the latter of which helps with shape retention.
Key Specs

Pros
- Great for between seasons
- Very soft and comfortable
Cons
- May feel too short on some
If you were in elementary school in the early 2000s, you probably had a drawer full of capri yoga pants. But unlike many trends from that time period—we're looking at you, cargo pants and bucket hats—we're glad they are back. These are great for low-impact workouts, a light jog, or casual wear.
Available in eight cute colors and made of super-soft materials, they're about as lightweight and comfortable as any workout pants out there.
