Often than not, we see many female hikers opt to bring out their yoga or fitness leggings instead of the traditional hiking pants. This, while offering the better comfort and stretchiness, isn’t considered a wise choice. Aside from the simple treks or short hikes, if you’re preparing to get into the really intense activities, then these leggings won’t work for you. These can easily come in contact with the rocks and sharp edges along the way, which can easily scratch and tear your legwear. But at the same time, many manufacturers have also observed this trend and are offering their own lineups of hiking leggings, which comes with padded and reinforced fabrics on sensitive areas. These can be a good choice if you’re so fond of legging’s comfort.
