Whether you're a long-standing Lululemon fanatic or are trying out the brand for the first time, it's important to understand the options so you pick out your best pair of leggings. Each fabric feels unique and is designed specifically for certain activities, from soft, lightweight styles for yoga, to smooth, compressive tights to wear during high-intensity exercise. It's no secret that Lululemon leggings are the holy grail of workout pants, but it might surprise you just how many styles and materials there are to choose from.
