Let’s look at the best women’s workout pants for CrossFit.

This isn’t leggings, tights, or yoga pants – but rather pants proper.

This is workout apparel – so they’ll all be high on the close and comfortable fit scale – but again – we’re not looking at leggings that fit like a “second skin”.

Why pants then?

These are a more modest option than leggings – and in some occasions that’s the right style.

Workout pants tend to be more versatile as well – so you can wear them around quite a bit rather than just to the gym or CrossFit box.

We’re going to be looking at the women’s workout pants options from Hylete – they make excellent performance apparel and active-wear.

Here’s the workout pants we’ll be reviewing in this article:

Flexion Pants for Women (Heather Slate) The Flexion Pant from Hylete is great for your CrossFit workout - or just about anything else you do in the gym. It's a comfortable fit, but looser than traditional leggins. The heather slate material gives a sophisticated look and these pants are cut so they don't interfere with your range of motion.

Flexion Pants for Women (Black) The Flexion Pant from Hylete is also available in all black. Black is a great color for a more modest look.

Nova Jogger (Heather Gray) Looking for a looser fit? These are a jogger style sweat pant. The extra room in the hips and thighs offers the classic feel of a sweatpant that you’ll want to live in.

Nova Jogger (Black) The Nova Joggers are also available in black. These are "jogger" style so they've got a tapered fit around the lower leg and a comparatively loose crotch area.

Urban Jogger (Cool Gray) The Urban Jogger from Hylete has a higher spandex content and that means a more flattering fit, a slight compression effect, and more comfort. Shown here in heather gray.

Urban Jogger (Black) Also available in black - for a more modest look.

Let’s take a look.

Flexion Pants

Hylete offers some great workout pants in the Flexion Pants for women.

These are made from 94% polyester and 6% spandex – so they have a slight stretch fit that looks great – and dries fast when needed.

The semi-slick exterior fabric is durable, but these pants also have an interior waffle texture to offer great temperature regulation and breathability.

On the Heather Slate pants you can easily see the flexion pants’ angular paneling and contrast fabric stretch zones.

Why these? Well – that’s an essential part of a good pair of workout pants.
