Four Reasons Athleisure Tights Work For Everyone

#1 - Hold In That Tummy

Do you remember your mom’s control top hose, the ones that cinched in her post baby tummy (your fault) and seamlessly flattened it? Clothing, actually spandex, technology is even better now. Today’s tights do all that and more. If you buy quality tights, the high-waist variety, they hold everything together without creating muffin-top. Miraculous!

Your side profile will thank you. The best part is that with athleisure tights you don’t have to wear a skirt over them, but you can if you want! Look for tights that are for body-sculpting. They are out there.

#2 - Smooth and Cover Cellulite

Are you conscious about cellulite on your backside? Have not fear, quality tights are here.

Today’s athleisure tights can smooth out dimples on your backside. The thick materials, flattering colors and patterns of the tights help you to feel confident even when the material is hugging you flat against your body.

Try Body Angel Activewear or Soybu to see if they can help you.

#3 - Accentuate Your Legs & Glutes

That’s not all that quality tights can do! Oh no! They can even hold your bootay firmly in place. Go ahead, give them the jump test.

When you try on tights, you need to get in front of a three-way mirror and jump up while watching your own backside. If things are jiggling and wiggling too much for your liking back there, try on a different pair.

Some of my personal faves are from Old Navy and Gap! They always pass my jump test.

#4 - Full Coverage While Showing Off Your Curves

Do you have great legs that you love showing off?

Even in the winter, this is possible with great tights. You get full leg coverage, but people can still see how shapely your legs are. If you find flaw with your upper body, you can pair your tights with a loose fitting hoodie or blouse to camouflage that area and a super fly athleisure jacket.

Maybe you have the whole package, a fabulously fit physique.

You can still be completely covered, head to toe, and flaunt that haute bod. That’s the great thing about athleisure wear. It’s tight where you want it tight and loose where you need it to be…if you need it to be. No body parts are hanging out, and you still look like a knockout.
