high waisted tights

These super-lightweight high-rise leggings lands just below the belly button, and come in wild graphics—like this snakeskin charmer. 

The convenient hidden waistband pocket is large enough to keep an ID and credit card, plus the the legging's compression material warms your body's muscles and helps ward off injury.

This pair, a Bandier Fitness and Alexis Ren collab, also features flat pockets for hiding away an ID or your cell and boasts three mesh panels at the ankle for extra breathability. 

The stylish chevron print makes these leggings stand out during any HIIT workout, and the breathable, quick-drying stretch fabric that contours nicely with the body.

This legging not only rides up super high—up to a 34-inch inseam—for long waisted ladies (scrunch it down to suit your height), it also has an UPF (aka UV Protection Factor) 50+ to protect your skin. 

Perfect for an outdoor run, the Relay tight features reflective trim plus a rear zipper for keeping your basics on your body. 

The pop of color and a fold-over waistband is combo of both style and comfort.

As if a high waist wasn't a big enough of a throwback, this pair adds another retro touch: stirrups, so your feet are more protected in a barefoot class.

If you're on the shorter side, the panels on these leggings will lengthen the look of your legs. The adjustable waistband also allows you to play with the length of the leggings.

And as our tops inch up our torsos, so do the waistlines of our leggings, with two brilliant results: The modest among us find ourselves that much more comfortable showing some skin during a sweat session while the flattering silhouette conveniently keeps everything nice and tight on the <a href=/articles/2013/10/treadmill-video>treadmill</a>, in <a href=/articles/2015/08/mastering-the-tuck>barre class</a>, or anywhere else in the gym. Here, a few of our favorites:
