#1 · TALA
Cloud Soft Legging
£55
Lightweight, buttery-soft legging made from recycled fabric. Less compression than the Morse Code, closer to the Align feel.
Watch out: Can feel loose and uncontoured on straight or athletic shapes. 7/8 length runs long for petite women — the biker short avoids this entirely.
#2 · Decathlon
RC500 Running Tight
£19.99
Lightweight running tight with reflective print. Breathable, anti-friction flat seams. One of the best budget running tights available.
Watch out: Less premium finish and feel. Some ranges feel cheap to touch even when they perform well. Limited aesthetic appeal compared to branded activewear.
#3 · Decathlon
FPA 500 Fitness Legging
£16.99
Decathlon gym legging. Supportive without being restrictive. Exceptional value at this price point.
Watch out: Less premium finish and feel. Some ranges feel cheap to touch even when they perform well. Limited aesthetic appeal compared to branded activewear.
#4 · Lululemon
Align High-Rise Pant 28"
£128
Buttery-soft Nulu™ fabric with a naked sensation. High-rise waistband stays put. Best for low-impact movement — yoga, pilates, walking, lounging.
Watch out: Align goes sheer in light colours and during sweaty activity. Wunder Train can be tight in the calf for muscular calves. Premium price makes sizing mistakes expensive.

Sweaty Betty Power Leggings
£88
Fan-favourite Power fabric — squat-proof and sculpting. High-waist with a wide waistband. Excellent for yoga, gym and pilates.
