Leggings get a bad rap: They’ve long been criticized as the poor-man’s jean, the ultimate clue that someone just doesn’t care—and not in the same DGAF-way that Rihanna basically got famous for. But not all leggings outfits have to look like you put in the minimum amount of effort into covering up before you left the house. In fact, leggings are one-third of the season’s coolest trend: athleisure.
Ahead, we found 13 pairs—including a basic cotton version, a ‘90s throwback-style, and one with mesh paneling for the truly daring among us—to style with your best white tee (try a button down for a fun change) and your coolest sneakers for the ultimate athleisure look.
