Hi this is for the ladies...Anyone know a good legging brand that is good material and doesn't fall down when you run in them. This is why i hate to wear any type of pants because they are always uncomfortable. I am a shorts girl when it comes to working out but it has been getting colder lately. I am a long distance outdoor runner and i find that when i wear certain types of leggings they aren't comfortable to run in and they don't stay in place like i have to keep pulling them up a little when i run its annoying. I am very athletic so i have somewhat muscular thick legs and a booty to match so i have enough to hold my pants up. lol I just don't know why they want to ride down. Material maybe? Since i hate pants i don't want to spend like $80 on one pair of leggings. I know they are pricey. So anyone know a good brand that's good quality and affordable? thanks.....

Get ones with the drawstring (or never ending loop). I have found good ones at target, old navy. But you have to look hard - not ever pair has one.

All athleta pants do, so scan the clearance rack / sale section for a cheaper pair.

Danskin by Walmart.

Wash, dry like a dream. I have some leggings I've worn almost every day to the gym FOR TWO years and they are still in great shape. Maybe $12 a pair.

Zella or Lululemon for the more expensive kinds, old Navy Active line of high waisted running leggings for the cheaper kind. They are all 3 good though.

I like the old navy leggings I have but not all fit the same. I have 3 pairs, all the same size. 1 stays perfectly. One doesn't and doesn't have a drawstring. One needs the drawstring to stay in place.

I recently got the target c9 high waisted leggings and they stay up much better - even though they don't have the drawstring.

To be safe, get a pair with the drawstring!

Several of my Old Navy pairs are seven or eight years old and still like new. No sagging or slipping. Given the declining and inconsistent quality of lots of ON stuff, I've been very pleasantly surprised with the activewear.

Isn't that line built primarily around online subscription/membership?

I also like Old Navy, though I agree with jade408, in that they don't all seem to fit the same.

I've recently discovered the FILA SPORT brand at Kohl's. Very reasonably priced (always use coupons) and nice designs, if you like that sort of thing. I wash in cold water and only line dry. I have had them a couple of months and they seem to hold up well.

POPFLEX is nice, kinda in the middle price point.

I have a few things and I really like the fit, especially the ones with the drawstrings.

I have never had that problem though, but I also never run much in leggings (I also prefer shorts) so maybe you need to find leggings designed specifically with running in mind?
