How to Find Yoga Pants Perfect for Warmth & Cold Winter Days?
The perfect blend of high quality performance fabrics and expert design techniques are the answer to this confusing dilemma. Don’t underestimate the importance of fabric or design when it comes to your shopping choices! Here’s what will keep you both cool and warm in the right yoga pants:
- Ultra-lightweight knit fabric constructed of heavy-duty and resilient fibers designed to help regulate body temperature for cooling and warming in the right directions. Thick weave with a thin feel.
- Controlled 4-way stretch sewn in the right ways and in the right places, and by design, allows for a perfect looking and feeling fit and offers a full range of motion for movement while insulating your legs and providing specific muscle support, so the body heat your active muscles generate stays in on cold days.
- Close-knit weave and use of mesh fabric allows for body heat ventilation, so you stay warm, not overheated, while you practice, plus offers a thickness that’s not see-through and still is lightweight.
- Technical fiber properties wick moisture away from the skin to the outside of the pants to evaporate, so moisture doesn’t pool against the body and you stay dry.
- Durable woven exterior fabric blocks wind and repels moisture, so cool temps and unpredictable weather can’t get through.
- Soft interiors, like microfleece, add a comfort base-layer to keep you warm and snuggly.
- Design, cut and seams, set in all in the right places, make the entire look and feel come together in all the right places on and for the body. Giving you an ultra-soft and comfy pair of warm yoga pants with a luxurious appearance to wear all around, all the time.
Our Favorite Cold-Weather Winter-Wear Warm Yoga Pants
The SportPort Polartec® Yoga Pants offer all of the features above. This particular SportPort yoga pant design is made with the use of high-tech Polartec® Power Stretch Pro fabric and designed specifically for those who go to yoga or Pilates classes all year long. This choice allows the leggings to be ultra-soft and comfy with a luxurious appearance. The design has the microfleece interior, adding a base-layer interior warmth as it draws sweat away from the skin to expel it to the exterior of the pant for evaporation. If that’s not enough, the outside of the leggings acts as a barrier against snow or rain and wicks moisture quickly away before allowing it to absorb, keeping you warm and dry, inside and out.
For our Compression Fit Yoga Pants, we incorporate Lycra® Sport fabrics combined with quick-dry Tactel® nylon in flat-lock stitching that ensures a comfortable compression fit that is smooth and soft on the skin. Although extremely lightweight, the heavy durability of the fabrics provide a warm, close-to-skin fit, that is supportive without being constrictive. Strategic mesh placement in our custom design is combined with breathable knit allowing moisture to escape in all the right places. And, we can’t leave out the truly functional, fashionably designed element of the side cargo pockets. The zippered pockets in these yoga pants allow you to hold your phone, keys, credit cards or any other personal items on you at all times. – Check out the added floral splash of color and flare seen in our designer Hibiscus Workout Yoga Pants too. – This makes these functional yoga pants great for travel, on-the-go, anytime-wear while also being great at the gym or on the yoga class floor.
