The Verdict Is In: These Are the Best Workout Tights Out There

The last thing you want to worry about during a workout is whether your tights have unexpectedly become see-through. The best pair of workout tights can be worn to the gym, yoga class, hiking—wherever your workout takes you—and remain completely, comfortably opaque. It can be tough to find workout leggings that don't end up transparent once you don them out for the first time—and by then it's already too late. The best way to find the perfect opaque leggings is by looking up the most positively reviewed pairs out there. Been looking for workout tights that won't go sheer but not looking for the research element? You're in luck because that's exactly what we've done. Keep reading to see which workout tights garnered the best reviews online, so the next time you're working out, your focus can stay where it should be: on working up a sweat.
Within its 448 glowing reviews on Amazon, this pair of leggings was most praised for its perfectly sized phone pocket. This reviewer couldn't have said it better: "I thought these seemed well made, not see through, and had the all-important pocket. My phone fit snugly but not so tight that it was a hassle to get it in and out. I want these in shorts, too."Available in sizes XS to XL.
When Nike names a pair of workout tights "hyperwarm," they'd better live up to the claim. Reviewers onReplica Store confirmed that these leggings are "perfect for days when the outside temperature falls below zero" and also loved that the stirrups kept the bottoms in place.Available in sizes XS to XL.
We'll just let this one review fromReplica Store do all the talking: "I was hesitant to purchase these leggings, because well, they're leggings for $50+, BUT it was the best decision I've ever made! These are the most comfortable leggings I've ever worn. They are thick enough not to be see through, and keep enough warmth in, but not too thick they make you sweat. The material is breathable and looks beautiful with every wash. If you're on the fence, buy them! You won't regret it!"Available in sizes XXS-XL.
Customers go so far as to describe these leggings as the best they've ever owned. "Hands down the most amazing fit and comfort I've ever experienced in workout clothes. High rise and stays put when working out. I'll never buy any other brand!" wrote one reviewer.Available in sizes 1X and 2X.
For the price, customers felt compelled to spend a bit more than they usually would on leggings, given Alo's amazing quality. One user got technical about the material, explaining, "The fabric of the uppers is substantial and not slippery which is important for aerial hoop and silks. The lower part has plenty of length to wear over your heels and still scrunch. I get compliments on them every time I wear them. Expensive but a worthy quality investment."Available in sizes XS to L.
Now that you know the best, it's probably worth finding out the leggings you should avoid when hitting the gym too.
