I’m usually that girl who shells out for premium leggings, and I still think they’re fun as a treat, but I’ve now bought these so-called “compression” leggings in multiple colors. And since 74% of you told us in a recent Instagram poll that you live in leggings, we hope this practical hot tip can help make #momlife a little easier for you, too.
So why compression? While we’d never advise going to extremes, we’re not opposed to a little help keeping everything in place. To be clear, this isn’t about hiding—we’re all for celebrating our bodies (and especially our bellies) at every stage. But adapting to an ever-changing shape can be distracting, and a little extra support around the stomach and hips can feel amazing after birth and help you focus on what’s important.
What these $20 leggings have on even my most expensive pairs is that they are thick—meaning they don’t snag in the wash, sheer out when I squat, or (heaven forbid) rip when I bend over. Their durability makes them perfect for both household chores and high-intensity workouts. They’re also warm, making them well-suited for transitioning between seasons. And once your wardrobe fully changes over, the same brand makes compression shorts that are equally comfy.
