Collection: Best Yoga Pants for Women

Yoga pants are a woman’s best friend. Of course, we are a little biased over here, but by far they are the comfiest, coziest clothes to wear. Many customers get confused between the classic “bootcut flare” yoga pants and our collection of leggings. So to avoid any confusion, we have put both into this category so you don't miss out on any specials.

Bootcut Yoga Pants

Yoga pants for women with a bit of flare on the bottom (but not too much) are a classic look for many activities. A favorite pant for light- to medium-intensity yoga, lifting weights, or running errands. They are tight around the hip/thigh area but then, after the knee, go straight down with a tad bit of flare. They are not tight around the ankle; instead, they flare out a bit at the bottom. 

Flared Yoga Pants

These yoga pants have a bit more flare at the bottom compared to the Bootcut Yoga pants above. We would suggest wearing these for similar activities such as yoga and any type of workout, and they will have a bit more flare at the bottom (more than a bootcut and less than a bell bottom). 

High-Waisted Yoga Pants

If you are looking for extra belly support in a yoga pant, these are your match. These high-waist yoga pants will have a rise of 10" or more and will hit around the belly-button area. Perfect for any activity, and you can pair it with a crop top without showing too much belly, and it's very flattering!

Straight Leg Yoga Pants

If you like less material than a bootcut yoga pant but also don't want to wear a legging, the best bet is a straight-leg yoga pant. These will be snug around the thigh/hip area and then fall straight down after the knee. There is not much flare to this type of pant. Great for any activity—yoga, walking, hiking, or gym time!

Bell Bottom Yoga Pants

If you are looking to make a fun & sassy statement with your yoga pants, these will be your favorites. Bell Bottom yoga pants are snug around the hip/thigh area and then flare out a lot around the bottom—think 70s disco queen. Yoga Democracy always comes out with fun new printed bell-bottoms with tops to match.

Yoga Pants For Women FAQ

Who Invented Yoga Pants?

We can thank the well-known chemist Joseph Shivers, who created Lycra back in 1958 to the success of yoga pants as we know them today. Without spandex or lycra, yoga pants would not have been designed as they are, as they are key components in keeping the fabric tight to the body and still allowing stretch and movement. 

What are Yoga Pants made From?

The most common fabric for yoga pants is a cotton/lycra blend. These are typically 90% cotton with 10% lycra for stretch. These result in feeling soft to the touch while adding some stretch for your workout. 

Flare vs. Bootleg?

Flared yoga pants expand more at the bottom towards more of a classic bell-bottom look. Bootleg yoga pants are a tad more straight-leg and fall closer to the shoe than a flare. 

How to Style Flared Yoga Pants?

If you are wearing the Flared Yoga Pants to work out in, partner them with a yoga bra or crop top, then layer on a light jacket or tank top for your workout. If you are wearing these to go out and run errands, throw on a loose-fitting tank top or pullover as the perfect weekend outfit. 

What to Wear with Yoga Pants?

Partner a tight-fitting tank top with your yoga pants for a complete outfit. Alternatively, if you don't want anything tight along your belly, wear a sports bra layered on with a loose-fitting tank top over the workout bra. Layer on a jacket or sweatshirt as needed.

Why Do My Yoga Pants Roll Down at the Waist?

People love this option of "roll-down" yoga pants because they can easily adjust the height of the waistband. Some people love this if they are short in the waist and prefer to roll down the band to fit their body type. Alternatively, people tall in the waist will wear these all the way up to add extra support. If you are pregnant, this is also a great option to keep rolled up to offer extra support in the belly area. 

What are our Best-selling Brands of Yoga Pants? 

Historically speaking, our pants from Beyond Yoga and Hardtail make up a large selection of what shoppers come back for. If you are looking for more “lounge-“athleisure”-type ”pants, then take a look at Free Label, which makes some stellar, comfy yoga pants.
