I want my synthetic leggings to remain as elastic and stable as possible. I use leggings for both social occasions and yoga, running and sport.

I’ve never done this and wonder if it works.

Alternatively, what works for you?

    Nope, granted I’ve also managed to maintain the same weight with little fluctuation. I’ve also never really had synthetic fabrics crease on me, in fact a lot of the advertising around synthetic fabric is about it being wrinkle-free and from experience it’s true (for my drape-y synthetic clothing, I’ll maybe have to hang them out if they’ve been folded in storage for a while for the fold lines to smooth out).

    But I will say I own like 10+ pairs of leggings some with different use cases (and materials): workout, hiking, and lounging. The brands I have aren’t even particularly special, a combo of Uniqlo, Athleta, PopFlex, and a few no-name brands.

    Edit: to avoid consecutive wear, you could have two or three pairs a week and rotate them each day.

    Edit 2: added info about my experience with synthetic fabrics.
