Fashion Meets Function



Yoga Pants Today – Fashion Meets Function

Is yoga wear for fashion or does it really have a function?
Recent studies have shown that yoga wear is all about fashion but also has a function, this paragraph from an article I found talks about the benefits of yoga wear when you are performing yoga. It also talks about how comfortable the clothing can be and how you will want to wear it all the time just around the house.
"Once you have begun to see the positive affect that yoga has had on your body, mind, and soul. You might begin to wonder how you can dress more appropriately for your yoga class. While some people think that sweats make the cut, they often times are too baggy to be comfortable during yoga. Instead, you might opt to get a pair of yoga pants. While you might consider sweat-pants to be comfortable. You obviously haven’t stepped foot into the legs of a specialty yoga style pant. Now, these are the kinds of pants that will surely take the place of your ugly old sweats. Not only will your new pair of yoga pants help you during your yoga sessions. But they will also give you an additional comfort during the winter seasons, or a lazy day around the house."
Personally I think that yoga wear is more for fashion then for the function because I have a ton of yoga wear but have never taken a yoga class, I just think its super comfortable so I wear it around the house, or out and about. When I workout I don't care if my clothes are matching or look cute its mostly about comfort and what is going to be easiest to move in. So I believe that is a a personal preference on whether yoga wear is worn for fashion or function!

  1. I am considering joining a yoga class and I was wondering, are yoga pants absolutely necessary for the session, or can I also wear my mesh cut out leggings as well? I don’t mind buying the yoga pants, but is there any practical value to this?
