I'm all for arming yourself with the proper hiking gear — and some that's unexpected, too — but sometimes, you can't afford to outfit yourself with an entire wardrobe just for a new sport. And when it comes to what to wear while hiking, I've found that my favorite workout leggings can be just as effective on a run, during a HIIT class, and yep, during hiking.
So before you go and buy a whole new set of outerwear just for hiking, consider these hiking-ready leggings from Under Armour. Their full-length cut, performance fabrics that keep you cool or warm, and sleek design make them ideal for any indoor or outdoor sport.
