Shoppers are raving about a pair of £20 gym leggings from high-street retailer Next, claiming they successfully pass the crucial 'squat test' and stay firmly in place without rolling down.
High-Performance on a High-Street Budget
The Power Active Sports Leggings have garnered enthusiastic reviews from customers who say they rival the quality of far more expensive activewear brands. According to Next, the leggings are crafted from a lightweight, four-way stretch fabric that is designed to be 'squat-proof'. They feature a high waist and seamless front for a secure and flattering fit, which the brand says makes them perfect for both exercise and everyday use.
Available in sizes from XS to 2XL and in both petite and regular fits, the leggings come in a variety of colours including classic black, navy, green, and burgundy. The combination of performance features and a budget-friendly £20 price tag has led many shoppers to purchase multiple pairs.
Shopper Reviews: 'Best Leggings I've Had'
The product's review section is filled with five-star ratings and glowing testimonials. One customer named Jan, who awarded a full five stars, stated: "My second pair of these - best leggings I’ve had. Supportive and don’t roll down."
Another reviewer, Max, emphasised their value for money, writing: "Excellent leggings. Good fit and nice and thick so pass the squat test. Much better quality than the more expensive sports brands I have tried." This sentiment was echoed by other buyers who found them ideal for activities like Pilates, yoga, and running.
From Gym to Casual Day Wear
Beyond the gym, the leggings are also being celebrated as a versatile staple for casual outfits. A shopper named Jo commented: "Bought for my daughter for her birthday. She wears these all the time for general day wear, look great with a t-shirt or jumper."
While the majority of feedback is positive, a small number of reviews noted issues with fit or stitching. One one-star review mentioned the leggings felt "too tight" and had problems with loose threads. However, these appear to be isolated cases amidst a sea of praise.
When compared to alternatives like Sweaty Betty's £88 Power Gym Leggings or Fabletics' £64 Define PowerHold leggings, the Next offering stands out for its accessibility. As one final happy customer summarised: "Decent sturdy fabric that's not see through... Have been washed loads and still looking great." For budget-conscious fitness enthusiasts and fashion seekers alike, these leggings are proving to be a standout high-street find.
