Below are themust-have leggingsfor various activities, recommended by myself, a few of my friends, andGlamoureditors.
What are the high-waisted leggings everyone has?
These high-waisted leggings feature a comfortable high-rise fit with lightweight compression that is buttery soft and not super restrictive.

These include: Vuori, Beyond Yoga, and Rhone.
I also find some of thebest leggings from Alo, Amazon, and Aritzia.
Theyre my go-to for long shoot days or travel days when comfort and durability are essential.

Just note: I find they run a bit small, so size up.
They compress you in and feel so nice, she explained.
Smyth also says her cats hair doesnt stick to the material, which is amajorwin for pet parents.

They also feature a double-layered waistband, making them another great option for tummy control.
And their shiny finish sets them apart from other top contenders.
This pair is now on regular rotation and a top pick for my weekly figure-skating classes.

Theyre great to wear as pants with an oversized sweater and sneakers (a.k.a.
my go-to comfy look).
So when my friendAmanda Alvareztold me theseAmazon workout leggingsare her favorite high-quality and flattering style, I was sold.

Theyre pretty much magic.
