Sunzel 25 inch Workout Leggings

Very soft, opaque budget leggings that suit yoga and daily wear more than intense training.

The short version

Buy it if
  • Anyone who wants soft, opaque leggings for yoga, walking or lounging
  • Shoppers looking for a low cost alternative to premium yoga leggings
  • People who prefer an ankle length 25 inch inseam
Skip it if
  • You want firm compression for running or heavy training
  • You want thick fabric that smooths and shapes

What owners like

  • Unusually soft fabric, often compared to much pricier yoga leggings
  • Stays opaque when squatting
  • Waistband stays in place without rolling
  • Comfortable enough for all day wear

Common complaints

  • Light fabric gives less support than some want for intense training
  • Thin knit does not smooth or hide body contours much

What it does

High waisted, soft polyester and spandex leggings with a 25 inch inseam, sold as squat proof and meant for the gym, yoga and everyday wear.

  • Brushed, soft hand feel that the maker calls buttery soft
  • Sold as squat proof, meaning the fabric is meant to stay opaque when bending
  • Sweat wicking and breathable fabric, according to the maker
  • Compression high waist meant to stay put and not roll down
  • 25 inch inseam lands around the ankle on many people, with a longer 28 inch version also sold

A low cost pick for anyone who wants very soft, opaque leggings for yoga, walking and daily wear. The trade-off is a lightweight fabric that one editorial tester found short on support for harder workouts, and it shows body contours more than thicker compression leggings.

Questions

Are Sunzel leggings squat proof?

Sunzel sells them as squat proof, and one editorial tester found they passed a squat test without going see through.

What are Sunzel leggings made of?

The 25 inch workout leggings are listed as 75% polyester and 25% spandex in a lightweight knit.

Do Sunzel workout leggings have pockets?

Sunzel's page for the 25 inch version lists side pockets and a hidden waistband pocket. Pocket layout varies by style, so check the listing for the exact version.

Are Sunzel leggings like Lululemon Aligns?

Shopping coverage reports many buyers compare the soft feel to the Align, at a much lower price. The fabric is a different blend, so the feel is not identical.
