How To Choose Leggings For Running – 3 MUST-KNOW Tips For A More Comfortable Run!
If you have started a consistent running fitness plan you will quickly start questioning the clothes you are wearing for your run. If you wear workout clothes that are too thick, they can weigh you down and they can make your run far from a comfortable experience.
Likewise, if you go for something that is too “light” you will find that they can be uncomfortable as they can keep on rubbing and depending on the weather, they can end up being far too cold.
The good news is we are going to give you three tips that you can use when you are choosing some leggings for running and we will also suggest some of the best leggings from Baee.co.uk.
Before we get into the tips, you may also want to have a read of our blog post on seamless leggings as these can be very popular for running. The reason is that they will not give you any friction or rubbing problems and they can be very comfortable as well.
Let is take a look at three tips that will help you pick the best leggings for running:
3 Things To Look For When Buying Leggings For Running:
The Fit:
The secret to getting a great pair of leggings for running is in the fit. You will want to go for something that is snug and fits you well without being too tight.
Likewise, you do not want to go for leggings that are too loose, these will become heavy and if you are in adverse weather conditions then they can become very cumbersome.
Your leggings should feel snug across the thighs, calves and buttocks. One of the key areas that you should also look at is the waistband, you will want to make sure that this is not too tight and of course you do not want to have this too loose as it will mean that as you are running you will have to keep on pulling them up.
We recommend going for a slightly tighter fit on the waistband then you would if you are looking for leggings for yoga or everyday wear.
This will keep them secure and when you are running you will be far more comfortable.
You do not want to make them so tight that you end up getting a “muffin top” as this will be uncomfortable, and it can also cause rubbing.
Another way that you can tell that you have the right fit for your leggings. If you take a look at the fabric and it becomes “stretched”, especially if there is a pattern then you are normally going too small.
Remember, always go for the best fit and don’t worry about the size that you have to go for in order to achieve it.
Material:
You can use a cheap pair of leggings for running, however one of the key reasons that you will want to go for quality is because of the material and fabric.
Yes, it will normally cost a little bit more money, but you will end up with fabric that moves with your body. This is absolutely essential if you are going to be running frequently.
You are looking for the material to be strong and withstand the movement that you will put it through as you are running.
You are also looking for something that will give you for mobility and support.
The other benefit of this is they will last you for longer. If you go for a cheap pair of leggings for running, you will commonly find that after a few washes they will not fit as well, and the materials will become worn very quickly.
We are pleased to say that our complete range of leggings at Baee.co.uk have been designed with you in mind.

What Makes The PERFECT Running Leggings?
We want to conclude with what helps make the perfect running leggings.
As we explored above, make sure that you spend extra attention on the fit. This will be absolutely key, there are not many exercises that will require a better fit than running.
