I have leggings with mesh I use to workout and lounging, for everything basically. I’m thinking about buying a pair of leggings with no mesh, synthetic material also, for daily use as well.
I have the feeling that the ones with mesh cool faster and don’t smell funky as quickly as the models with no mesh. I don’t know if I’m imagining things.
The ones with no mesh should keep me warm longer and be better for winter?
both leggings are a mix of polyester and spandex: 20% spandex on the mesh model, 33% spandex on the no mesh one.
Wouldn’t the mesh panels allow that part of your body to dissipate heat better? Or is the material of the rest such a bad insulator that it doesn’t really matter?
Forgive me if it’s obvious. Society doesn’t expect ME to dress a certain way at the gym so I am completely ignorant on the subject on leggings
Normal leggings don’t really trap heat that much, they’re pretty thin and stretchy. That’s why thermal leggings are a thing. They’re usually fleece lined or made of a thicker material
So the only point is to just hide skin, thus the mesh is defeating the purpose?
It’s an aesthetic decision. The panel ones go well with geometric or sci-fi styles. I can also see them pairing well with animal print
Well then, looks like I was wrong twice lol
