At this point, leggings have essentially become wardrobe staples. Now considered perfectly acceptable to wear beyond the gym, they can complement many outfits and are offered in various styles built to accommodate whatever the day may hold. And the best part is you can order some truly amazing options on Amazon, which is especially exciting for Prime members who are able to get their new favorite leggings to their door in just a few days.

As for the types of leggings you may want in your wardrobe, there are some key silhouettes to consider. For fitness enthusiasts of all kinds, there’s workout leggings. These come in a range of styles, so when choosing the right pair, it’s important to consider how you’ll be exercising in them. Leggings made for high-impact workouts will often feature extra-compressive materials to ensure they stay put and boost circulation during long-distance runs or other demanding routines (such as those seen in CrossFit or Barry’s Bootcamp). Meanwhile, styles for low-impact workouts (like yoga or pilates) typically offer more flexibility as you move through down dog or warrior poses.
