Gone are the days when activewear and regular everyday clothing were mutually exclusive. Nowadays, our exercise gear is both stylish and adaptable, blurring the lines between workout clothes and casual wear. One brand leading the charge in this category is Gap. While all its activewear is covetable, its leggings are an absolute must have in our book. Its options span from low-compression styles, ideal for yoga or hot girl walks, to high-compression options that have your back during the most demanding workouts.
Ahead, we've rounded up nine pairs of Gap leggings for every type of workout. We've included options in a range of prices (starting at $20!), not to mention different styles to suit everyone's fitness aesthetic. Whether you're looking for basic classic cotton jersey leggings, moisture-wicking black pairs for intense workouts, or stylish matching sets guaranteed to turn heads at the gym, we've got you covered. So, what are you waiting for? Keep scrolling to shop the best Gap leggings.
Best Cuffed Leggings
GapFit Brushed Tech Jersey Leggings ($20, originally $70)
Hurry to scoop up these leggings while they're still available. (They're going fast!) We love the soft-brushed jersey knit fabric, ribbed cuffs, and flatlock seams, which help prevent chafing.
Best Jersey-Knit Leggings
GapFit Basic Leggings ($30)
If you prefer a more classic legging, these are your perfect match. They're made of soft jersey knit with a mid-waist silhouette. Choose from two colors: black and gray.
Best Shiny Leggings
GapFit Sky High Rise Power Shine Leggings ($35, originally $70)
These shiny high-compression leggings are bound to become a compliment magnet whether you wear them on their own or pair them with the matching GapFit Power Low Impact Sports Bra ($20, originally $40).
Best V-Front Leggings
GapFit Brushed Tech Jersey Leggings ($50)
Yes, we're still fans of the V-front waistband trend, and our love shows no signs of slowing anytime soon. If you agree that it's a flattering style, you need these soft and stretchy leggings on your radar.
Best 7/8 Leggings
GapFit High Rise Power 7/8 Leggings ($60)
If you hate when fabric bunches around your ankles with long leggings, maybe a 7/8 length is a better option. Bonus: They have pockets to stash essentials during workouts and are moisture-wicking to keep your skin dry.
Best Wide-Leg Leggings
GapFit High Rise Wide-Leg Power Leggings ($70)
The yoga pants trend from the early 2000s is having a revival, but with a modern twist. Instead of the classic bootcut style from that era, modern versions feature a sleek fit through the thigh and a wide leg.
Best Split-Hem Leggings
GapFit Sky High Rise Power Split-Hem Leggings ($70)
These split-hem leggings fuse style and practicality. The forward-facing split adds a touch of sophistication that'll complement any fashion-forward ensemble, while the moisture-wicking fabric and stretchiness makes these perfect for walking, yoga — you name it.
Best Leggings With Medium Compression
GapFit High Rise Eclipse Full Length Leggings ($70)
Unlike Gap's "Power" fabric, known for its high compression, or its brushed jersey fabric, which offers low compression, these leggings strike a balance. With medium compression, they're ideal for workouts such as yoga and Pilates.
Best Flare Leggings
GapFit Sky High Rise Power Flare Leggings ($70)
For more pronounced flare than the aforementioned wide-leg leggings, check out these. They have all the same benefits, but an ever-so-slightly more dramatic shape.
