I Tried Old Navy's $40 Leggings—Here’s My Review After Pilates.

      I have recently embarked on my fitness journey, and my first task was to find stylish and budget-friendly workout apparel. However, this turned out to be more challenging than anticipated until I discovered a pair of $40 leggings that look and feel much more luxurious. These are the Old Navy Powersoft Boundless leggings. In my opinion, the ideal activewear should prioritize movement and comfort without putting a strain on your finances. It’s a bonus if they appear great in a post-workout selfie, which these certainly do. Read on for my review of the $40 editor-approved leggings following my Pilates class, along with recommendations for the best Old Navy activewear for 2026.

      Regarding the Powersoft Boundless Leggings, I’m wearing them for $40, along with the Powersoft Sports Bra for $30 in Dark Sepia. I’ve paired these with the Bounce Fleece Bomber Jacket priced at $55, worn zipped halfway, and the Puff Active Tote for $35, which has enough space for my laptop, charger, wallet, and a change of clothes. Below, you can find the Old Navy leggings that held up during a 10:30 a.m. reformer class at New York Pilates.

      My review: I fell in love the moment I put on these leggings. The Powersoft Boundless launch from Old Navy features a sleek design. The fabric is soft to the touch and provides supportive lifting without being constricting, making them ideal for both reformer and mat classes. During my workout, I appreciated the leggings’ features: a super high waist, deep side pockets that can fit a phone, and no front seam. With a quality and fit that rivals high-end options, these $40 leggings come in six colors, ranging from classic black to the elegant Dark Sepia (as shown above) and sizes XS to 4X. As a shopping editor, I see that Old Navy aims to offer accessible, functional, comfortable, and affordable activewear with these thoughtful design elements. In my view, these $40 leggings can compete with any high-profile, celebrity-backed activewear brand.

      But don’t just take my word for it. I got input from Sierra Mayhew, WWW fashion editor, who said, “When I first tried these leggings on, I was pleasantly surprised. Since they're not from an activewear-first brand, my expectations were low, but the quality is comparable to some of the best performance brands, minus the hefty price tag, which is halved, so I was convinced.”

      **Size range:** XS to 4X

      **Inseam:** Regular 25 inches, petite 23 inches, tall 28 inches

      **Colors:** 6

      **Sizing tip:** I chose size small, and they fit true to size.
