Maybe you wouldn't be caught dead in leather pants or maybe you live in them day and night (you chafe-resistant human, you). Whatever camp you fall into, there's one time when we all deserve to feel a little more badass, and that's at the gym. Faux-leather workout gear is on the up and up, and once you check out the sleek leggings we've found, you'll see why: shiny fabric, mesh cutouts, and a cool, subtle style that's as at home in the gym as it is on a night out. We've got everything from basic black to midnight blue, candy red, and bubblegum pink, depending on just how much you want to stand out in class tomorrow. Slip on a pair, hit the gym, and let the badass attitude sink in.
