Flared Yoga Pants Biography

I’m not entirely sure how it happened. My unusual interest in black yoga pants, that is. It came on slowly, at first. Then it became an all out obsession. It started with a simple Tweet: “Most flattering black yoga pant recommendations? Pants that fade or pill need not apply. Boot cut preferred. Willing to
The Twitter responses were unanimous: Lululemon had the best pants. So after years of purchasing pair after pair of inexpensive but cute cotton yoga pants that faded after just a few washings, I decided I would just-say-no to cotton and splurge on a pair of performance yoga pants from Lululemon. After consulting the online fit guide, I settled on a pair of Groove Pants – the pant that started the Lulu craze. But I had to know - were these really the best pants available to the modern yogini? And so I embarked on a six-month journey to find THE best yoga pants and then to write a feature article on my results. I invited seven brands to participate and all responded favorably. My ask? Send me a pair of your most basic black full-length yoga pants, no cotton. Along the way, I took up a little running, spent time with a personal trainer and attended boot camp classes. This spurred me to extend the study to any basic black performance fitness pant.

Basic black yoga pants are the everyday uniform of the fit and active spa-loving woman. A well-styled and well-fitting pant can take you from yoga class to running errands to picking the kids up at school in comfort and in style. Personally, I wear them almost every day after work and on weekends. I workout in them and just never take them off – they’re so comfortable. And I find that dressing the part makes me act the part – when I’m wearing them, I’m more likely to exercise and move.

So we studied the care instructions meticulously and washed and dried each pair numerous times. We wore them to yoga class, the grocery store, walking, running, to fitness class – just about everywhere. We tugged and stretched them and held the pants up to the light to check for transparency. We viewed them in varying lighting conditions. In a nutshell, we put them through their paces.

We looked for pants that held their shape, didn’t sag in the knees, flattered many figure types, maintained their color and showed minimal pilling. We learned that most fabrics will pill – so we looked for pants that showed minimal pilling. According to Wikipedia, “pilling is a surface defect of textiles caused by wear, and is considered unsightly. It happens when washing and wearing of fabrics causes loose fibers to begin to push out from the surface of the cloth, and, over time, abrasion causes the fibers to develop into small spherical bundles, anchored to the surface of the fabric by protruding fibers that haven't broken. Pilling normally happens on the parts of clothing that receive the most abrasion in day-to-day wear.”

Different fabrics hold black dye differently (wools better than cotton, for instance). Black pigmented clothing can appear gray, brown or even have a purplish hue. We observed many shades of black: jet black, coal black, ebony, soft black and grey black. Synthetics (like lycra) hold dye better than cotton, which is why those cute black cotton yoga pants I historically bought faded so quickly.

A note about garment care: For the consistency of this test, we never waivered when it came to following the manufacturers care instructions on all the pants in our study. Wear after wear, we laundered them inside out in cold water. We usually washed the pants by themselves or with like items, but certainly never with towels or Velcro (a big no-no according to the care instructions on some of the pants). For certain, we never dried them in the dryer – we always hung them to dry.
