For a pair of supersoft yet supportive trail tights, consider the Becksa from Prana. Several SELF staffers tested these leggings a couple years ago and were wowed by their unique ribbed fabric, just-right high rise, and flattering fit (“Honestly, these leggings made me feel hot,” one tester wrote). They probably aren’t going to hold up to a ton of scrapes and tight squeezes between boulders, but they’re an excellent choice if a quick hike, a trip into town, and lounging at home are all on your schedule.
- SELF tester review: “These leggings held up well during a rather sweaty and generally wet hike. They stretch easily and the waist stays up, even when climbing step after step to reach a waterfall. The cut stopped right at my ankle, but I’m short, so that was a win for me. I’d wear these out on the trails or to brunch!”
