Living in Phoenix, I never wear leggings, lol. I always work out in shorts. Although, some people do wear them here in the winter, but I'm a jeans person. I just can't work out in them.

I teach a lot of classes and love Athleta. The leggings come in petite sizes and a variety of fabrics and patterns. They can be pricey but I belong to some Facebook discount groups or shop clearance.

I did get a couple of really nice pair of cotton blend yoga pants from Land's End similar to the Lucy Vital pant (Lucy went out of business ). The price was right and I wear the pants a lot.

My 2021 official summer outfit is crazy-patterned capri leggings and long-sleeved SPF (sun-blocking) tops and hoodies.

I'm all set.

I wear capris sometimes in the summer, but loose cotton. It's just too hot for me for tight leggings, although I do see some people wearing them.

But kudos for wearing the sun blocking clothing. I should get some loose cotton tops. But I do slather on the sunscreen!

Ok, I’m probably in minority, but I love the Target brand leggings. I’ve tried Lulu (they all slide off!), Fabletics (not bad if it’s cool, but the fabric makes me feel claustrophobic), and I tried Lucy. I used to love Old Navy until they took the cotton out of the material. I’ve had mixed success with the store brand, BCG, from Academy. My Nikes are ok, but I honestly reach most often for my Target leggings. Oh, I have weird sensory issues when it comes to tight clothes. I wanted to be a ballerina until they put me in tights. I remember the day vividly, just yuck.

I bought a couple of types of Tek Gear capris that felt comfortable. We'll see how I like them as time goes by.

I also bought some "The Gym People" capris on Amazon. I'm so glad that high-waisted leggings are back in style. The low-waisted ones often to fall down on me.

I always see a lot of "Marika" in TJ Maxx as well as Marshall's.

Does the Target brand have a specific name or is it just Target? I also like a little cotton in my leggings.

I believe it’s called “All in Motion”. Not all in the brand line have the same fabric and some are softer than others. I still don’t think these have cotton blend, but they’re somehow bearable compared to other leggings (I’m in South Louisiana heat kinda hot).

I forgot to mention for those of you looking for COTTON leggings/yoga pants, Amazon sells a brand called Baleaf. I have a pair of their yoga pants which are quite nice. And, they offer short/regular/long lengths!

They sell lots of activewear from leggings/capris/shorts/tanks/etc. Reviews on Amazon said to size up, which I did and they fit great!

Thank you. Definitely worth looking into.
