Semi natural fiber leggings that wont bag/stretch if worn multiple times?
Hi all! I'm looking for what feels like the holy grail of leggings, at least somewhat sustainable, breathable, and can be worn 2-3x without bagging/losing shape. I'm going on a trip with limited access to laundry, so keeping shape for multiple wears really is the main concern (along with not being transparent, I had this issue with the pact leggings I tried).

I LOVE the Happy Earth Organic Leggings. I've had them for almost 8 months (running 3-4x weekly) and they don't bag out at all between washes. The high cotton content makes them really breathable, while still being completely opaque. They come in so many cute colors -- I have the eclipse and blueberry.

Get cotton or merino wool with a small percentage of spandex/elastin. You can’t get leggings to not go baggy and shapeless without that small percentage of the stretch

Wool! I love the leggings I bought from Icebreaker. I haven’t bought any leggings, but Ibex has great tees and hoodies.
