Though they fit her a bit snugly in the waist, they worked “mostly fine” she noted that she also liked the capri version, which has a 20-inch inseam (she is 5 feet 2 inches tall). Our plus-size tester, who wore a size 2XL and typically wears a size 16–18, liked the quality feel of the thick fabric. Dense and soft with a good amount of stretch, these leggings are pleasantly compressive and felt great on-a nice dose of support versus a too-tight squeeze. But Superfit Hero goes the highest (40–42). All of our picks offer sizing up to at least a 20 (and several of our favorites also come in extended sizes, including Girlfriend Collective and Universal Standard).

Why they’re great: Superfit Hero transitioned to all plus and extended sizes in late 2020, allowing the company to cater fully to an often underrepresented population of athletic-wear aficionados. Available in sizes L (12–14) to 7XL (40–42) and in one length (29 inches), they fit our 5-foot-2-inch plus-size tester (who wore a size 2XL) a bit snugly in the waist, but were otherwise comfortable. They felt good during sweaty workouts and less-intense sessions. How they fit: Smooth and dense with a supportive hold, the Superfit Hero Superhold Pocket Leggings have conveniently placed pockets. We think they work well paired with a favorite T-shirt or a cozy cardigan for everyday wear or layered under shorts (for workouts) or skirts. But if you prefer a higher level of compression or a fabric with a more substantial weight, these leggings may not provide adequate support. We didn’t notice any issues with coverage (though thinner, the fabric wasn’t see-through). The company describes the Core Legging as having “soft support,” and that’s accurate: These are thinner and stretchier than many pairs we tried. These leggings are also somewhat less supportive than some other pairs we recommend, and they feel refined enough to wear with non-sport clothing. The fabric feels cool and smooth, and it’s more matte than shiny, so this pair doesn’t appear specifically geared toward workouts. Yet I found myself wearing them mostly on days that held lighter activity or longer spells of sitting (thank you, no-pinch waistband!). These leggings did show a few sweat streaks post-cycling, but they dried speedily. (The phrase “super-comfortable” popped up more than once.) They performed well during indoor-cycling classes, and they also planked and lunged their way through other workouts with ease.
With a thinner fabric yet still a quality feel, these leggings won over wearers with their unrestrictive stretch and wearability. Why they’re great: We found these leggings to be fine for workouts, and they actually became our go-to for casual everyday wear.
