The Top 10 Summer Leggings That Can Stand Up to Your Sweatiest Workouts

For any hot workout, you'll love the moisture-wicking magic of Outdoor Voices' TeachSweat fabric. The Flex leggings, which come in three prints and colors, offer unrestricted movement and tons of flexibility. Don't get tripped up by the fabric's slightly thicker look; the cooling power is real.

Vuori's moisture-wicking, four-way stretch leggings are cool to the touch, thanks to their performance-grade nylon material. They feature an interior drawcord so they'll never slip, and a hidden zip pocket where you can stash things like your subway card or keys to keep your hands free during your workout. 

Available in tons of fun colors and prints, these buttery soft yoga leggings also come in three different sizes, so you can tailor them to your style. The fabric is so lightweight, it's practically weightless—if you're worried about feeling constricted during your exercise class, these leggings are the way to go. 

If your summer sweats involve Pilates or yoga, these are for you. Free People's tie-dye design involves breathable holes that line up the back of the leggings to release heat—plus, they have SPF 30 UV protection. 

Designed for running with a brushed Nulux™ fabric (it's both lightweight and nonrestrictive), these simple black leggings are actually brushed on the inside for added softness. The material is moisture-wicking and quick-drying, so you can continue your morning jog ritual without breaking a sweat.  

Affordable and available in six different colorways, these customer-favorite leggings are designed to dry quickly and eliminate sweat—in other words, you can absolutely wear them to grab a post-gym breakfast. This pair features mesh cutouts along the sides of the legs, making them extra breathable.  

These full-length leggings have flat-locked seams (and no side seams at all!) to reduce chafing in hot weather. They're called the "airbrush" legging because, truly, that's what they do: The stretchy, sweat-proof fabric is designed to sculpt and smooth so you always feel supported and comfortable while you work out.  

What makes these high-waisted leggings so good? The ribbed performance fabric. Breathable enough for hot temps, it offers medium compression that's perfect for low- and medium-impact activities.  

If the fact that these leggings are moisture-wicking, squat-proof, and completely seamless won't sell you on this buy, perhaps the hundreds of rave reviews on Amazon will. Not only are they unrestrictive (see: seamless), but the high-rise waist stays put during your lowest squats and sweatiest endurance bursts. 

With “naked feeling” in the name and 12,000+ Amazon reviews, it’s safe to say these leggings will pique your easy-breezy interest. “These are amazing quality. Super soft material. Thick enough to where I know they won’t be see-through, but still lightweight and breathable,” writes one reviewer. Fans of these also note the mega-roomy pockets, spot-on compression, and stay-up waistband—perfect for outdoor summer activities from jogs to hikes.
