What are your favorite brands of leggings, capris and yoga pants? I like cotton blends.

I'm curious to hear recommendations, too! It's becoming harder to find cotton blend workout clothing. I like the brand Marika, but it seems they are moving toward more polyester blends like other manufacturers. Sigh!

The Marie Wright yoga wear I got a long time ago is still in decent shape, but that's mostly because I'm too fat to wear that size any more.

I'd definitely give them a look if I were in the market.

Mostly, though, I just get things from the discount stores like TJMaxx and Marshalls.

I really like the Hue capri leggings from Macy’s, which are a cotton blend. They are soft and comfortable, and I love the wide waistband.

A co-worker has been raving about her leggings from Duluth Trading Company. Her boyfriend wears the "ball room"

pants and other Duluth clothing exclusively. He bought her a pair of the leggings and that's all she wears now.

I'm going to try them myself. Duluth NoGa Pants

ETA: I scored a pair of NoGa Classic Slim Leg Pants and a tee shirt on sale, $68 before tax and free shipping. I hope the tee will work out - I actually have more problems finding a shirt that fits rather than the leggings. You can select your preferred pants inseam which his nice. Will report!

Thanks for the suggestions!

Wendy, I've always liked the Marika brand. I see that they sell them at Kohls.

I have to admit being stunned at some of the prices for leggings, etc.. You can tell I don't go clothing shopping very much.

It's been a long time since I purchased from them, but several years back I went on a Fabletics binge and I have a ton of their leggings. They are so strong and with the right amount of compression and stretch. Not see-through at all.

However, since it has been a while since I purchased from them, I can't say if the material is still the same. But the ones I have I wear a ton, and they haven't worn out or pilled or anything.

I have a few pairs from Curves N Combat Boots and I definitely was not impressed for the price. Not necessarily anything wrong with them, but way too expensive and I didn't like them as much as the cheaper Fabletics ones that I have.

My favorite cotton blends are Fila, Adidas or Calvin Klein. Kohls just recently discontinued Fila, so you can find them on clearance now. They are very comfortable, I don’t like a lot of compression in my leggings.

I went into Kohl's and the Marika brand was nowhere to be found.

I bought a couple of types of Tek Gear capris that felt comfortable. We'll see how I like them as time goes by.

I also bought some "The Gym People" capris on Amazon. I'm so glad that high-waisted leggings are back in style. The low-waisted ones often to fall down on me.
