If Nike Zenvy leggings have one defining feature, it's their silky soft feel. Made from Nike InfinaSoft fabric, these leggings are engineered at the yarn level to be plush and pliable, resulting in the softest Nike leggings yet.

But Nike Zenvy leggings aren't defined by softness alone. They are made for movement, with an extra-wide waistband that stays put with every stretch, bend and shift of the body. They offer gentle compression, making them ideal for all-day wear. Minimal seams and raw hems make for a cosy, comfy fit and streamlined look. For convenient storage, you'll find one drop pocket in the middle of the back that's large enough for a phone.

These leggings are infused with Nike Dri-FIT Technology, which moves sweat away from the skin for quick evaporation. They come in a high-rise and mid-rise silhouette and a variety of lengths from full-length to 20cm (approx.) inseam biker shorts.

Best for:

• Medium Support
• High intensity training
• Strength training
• Dance
• Gymnastics

For the toughest workouts or most intense HIIT classes, Nike Pro leggings are made to keep athletes cool and concentrated. These leggings specialise in breathability. Nike Dri-FIT Technology wicks sweat away from the skin as fast as it accumulates, while many Nike Pro leggings include mesh panels on the calves for additional airflow.

The fabric is soft and stretchy to move with you as you sprint or lunge. Even the back seams are designed to give a full range of motion. Meanwhile, the snug, elastic waistband keeps these leggings in place and the tight fit provides a supportive, body-hugging feel.

Nike Pro leggings come in a range of solid colours, bold graphics and swirling designs. Find them in mid-rise or high-waisted options, with lengths varying from full-length, 7/8 to cropped, as well as biker shorts with 18cm or 8cm (approx.) inseams.

Best for:

• Medium Support
• Strength training
• Walking
• Yoga & Pilates
• Travel

These silky soft leggings are ideal for nature hikes, restorative yoga classes, running errands and everything in between.

The Nike One line of leggings includes key features such as Nike Dri-FIT Technology to keep skin cool and dry throughout the day, as well as non-sheer fabric that stays opaque as you bend or squat. Nike One options built with Nike Therma-FIT materials help regulate body temperature in cold environments. Meanwhile, the Nike One (M) leggings are designed specifically for pregnant people and will fit over a growing belly through all stages of pregnancy.
