    31 "Exercise Leggings" You'll Probably Want To Wear Even When You're Not Exercising

    Can someone explain to me why all the leggings are listed under "activewear?" I find nothing active about them.

    1. A pair of indestructible RAYPOSE capri leggings made of sweat-wicking breathable fabric that has a sturdy four-way stretch so they can survive any mountain high enough or valley low enough.

    2. A pair of ultra-high waisted compression leggings to hold everything in while you run to and from the fridge.

    3. A pair of high-waisted 90 Degree by Reflex control leggings designed using a nylon and spandex blend that'll make sure you're covered during every bend, squat, or lunge you have to take to grab the remote.

    4. A pair of the BEST. Absolute BEST! And ultra-popular, ridiculously comfy, and perfectly high-waisted Zella Live In leggings — no better time than the present to add to your ever-growing stretch pants collection.

    5. A pair of delightfully colorful Terez Sound Splatter Leggings that have a comfy mid-rise fit and are made using a sleek, sweat-wicking Dynamic DuoKnit fabric that gives you compression and none of that see-through nonsense.

    9. A pair of Athleta's Elation Pirouette 7/8 leggings made in a fabric so buttery soft you'll wanna spread them on toast! They also have a three-layer unpinchable waistband that's always comfy while it smoothes and supports, a discreet pocket, and no inseams.

    10. An investment-worthy pair of Spanx's Every.Wear Active Icon Leggings — I am telling you now. I would die for these leggings. I would fight war for these leggings. These leggings are my hero and my cause. I love these leggings.

    18. A pair of Patagonia's super soft centered crop legging — the awesome thing about getting Patagonia leggings is their transparency about production. These, for example, are fair trade certified sewn which means every person on the supply chain is given a living wage. They're also made using recycled polyester which helps in lessening the dependence on petroleum-based materials.

    19. A pair of perfectly printed full-length leggings you're gonna be able to rock with your favorite boots or sneakers.

    22. A pair of Thinx Leggings which are straight-up genius. They're designed for the moderate days of your period. Yup! They have an absorbency that can hold the same as three regular tampons or one and a half regular pads. They also come with side pockets and a heating pad pocket in the front.

    23. A pair of buttery smooth brushed polyester and spandex high-waisted leggings that'll stretch in every direction you do without ever getting see-through.

    24. A pair of eco-friendly, super stretchy fleece bamboo leggings that are absolutely perfect for winter.
