If you’re an avid seamless workout leggings goer, you likely have a wide variety of leggings in your closet, ranging from patterned prints to sweat-wicking fabric. But one trend that’s been taking the industry by storm is seamless workout leggings, which offer a smooth fit without any bulky seams or stitching. The seamless design also prevents chafing and makes them more comfortable, especially for high-intensity workouts.

But while the trendy fabric and shape-hugging style may look like a workout must-have, it’s important to know that not all seamless leggings are created equal. When choosing a pair, it’s essential to find a pair that fits comfortably (not too tight or loose) and has four-way stretch so the fabric moves with you, says Frutchey. “If the fabric only stretches in two directions, you’re going to feel constricted and irritated,” she explains.
