Leggings??

11 Replies

Thoughts please on what you all wear on your legs? I have a problem of keeping anything from rolling down past the Buddha belly and god awful knees that most definitely cannot be seen in public even in the dark in a derelict park at the scrake of dawn

Your thoughts would be helpful 🙈

I live in France and Decathlon is the local and good value sports shop here, I just checked and they are in the UK now too. They have full length running leggings for men and women, in different thicknesses for different weather conditions. They have a drawstring and a little pocket at the back. It's their own brand, I think mine cost about 12€ and they are really comfortable, I just went back and bought a thicker pair in anticipation of winter runs!

Maybe not much help but I've wore a swimming costume under my running stuff to stop my belly popping over my leggings whilst running 😱 can't believe I'm sharing this lol but it definitely helped . Maybe borrow one ! X

Ladies runnings leggings - just make sure you get ones with a drawstring inside the waist band that stops any wardrobe malfunctions/flashing I find.
