I am always searching for truly squat proof workout pants and would love some recommendations! After testing numerous brands, my preferred pants were the VS Knockout tight. However, I just ordered a bunch and it seems that the fabric has changed?! I don't mind spending some money (Lulu's, etc) if they are truly squat proof through multiple washings. I've had Nike and Under Armour that were not squat proof... but maybe I need to try a different style? I am curious about Gymshark, Myprotein, etc. And I know some people swear by Old Navy. Help! Please!!

    I've used leggings from Old Navy, Marshall's and TJ Maxx and they all hold up really well.

    I never put much thought into it. I wear old navy because they are affordable and last for years through hundreds of washing. Never really thought about how they perform for squats, but I guess they work, because I've never had a problem.

    My grrrl leggings and my hviii brand goods leggings both are pretty squat proof. That said, I've switched to bootie shorts (usually Fleo, sometimes Feed Me Fight Me) when I squat.

    I don't think I've ever had a see-through pair at all, but my favourite brands you can get at TJ Maxx and Marshall's and whatnot - Balance Collection (which I think is a Marika offshoot) and 90 Degrees by Reflex, of which I have about 8 pairs.

    The benefit is that I get hit on far less while wearing basketball shorts than when I wear pants or shorter running shorts. They're also like $5 in the Boys section of WalMart.

    The Hanes cotton lounge shorts I wear are as low as $2 at target every year on clearance around August.

    I wear them over my compression leggings because I figure nobody wants to see what I'm twerkin with.

    Old Navy are my fave... 100% squat proof, affordable, and hold up well against daily/almost daily washings. Plus they make some cute styles/patterns!

    I second these - I get them on Amazon and have been rather impressed. They could be a bit roomier in the calf section but otherwise they're durable and not at all see through.

    Lulus are squat proof. Hand wash though. I will throw my older ones or the larger size 8s in the wash but not the good/newer ones.
