Everyone has that one perfect pair of leggings — and then the others that stay in the back of the closet until it's laundry day and there's nothing else to wear to the gym. Let's face it: as great as they make your butt look while you're running errands or lounging around the house, sometimes leggings don't perform as well when you actually start exercising. One pair might be perfect for running but not stretchy enough for yoga, while another might be so high-waisted that it provides great coverage during squats, only to bunch up at the ankles. These are all real problems, and truth be told, there are different leggings that cater to different needs — whether that be a HITT workout or your daily walk.

In a sea of black leggings that all look pretty much identical, it can be hard to tell which ones will work best for you. Fortunately, Under Armour takes out all the guesswork, and their collection of leggings caters to all different types of fitness needs so you can slay every workout that's low, medium, or high endurance. Here are seven of Under Armour's best leggings that are bound to be your new favorite pair.
