Shop the Best Old Navy Activewear 2026

I’ve recently started my fitness journey. The first step: Find cute, affordable workout clothes. But that’s proving to be harder than I thought. Until I came across a pair of $40 leggings that look and feel far more expensive. The leggings in question: the Old Navy Powersoft Boundless. IMO, the best activewear promotes movement and comfort without breaking the bank. Bonus if they look cool in a post–workout class selfie. These do just that.

Scroll on to read my post-Pilates review of the $40 editor-approved leggings. Plus shop the best Old Navy activewear of 2026.

The Powersoft Boundless Leggings

WWW assistant shopping editor Josephine Hadjiloucas wears Old Navy activewear.

Here, I’m wearing the Powersoft Boundless Leggings ($40) and the Powersoft Sports Bra ($30) in Dark Sepia. I’ve paired them with the Bounce Fleece Bomber Jacket ($55), zipped up halfway, and the Puff Active Tote ($35), which is spacious enough to hold my laptop, charger, wallet, and a change of clothes.

Below, shop the Old Navy leggings that withstood the heat of a 10:30 a.m. reformer class at New York Pilates.

Powersoft Boundless Leggings

My review: From the moment I stepped into these leggings, I was in love. Old Navy’s Powersoft Boundless launch features a sleek construction. The soft-to-the-touch fabrication provides a lifting support without feeling restrictive—I found them perfect for a reformer or mat class.

During my workout, I noted the leggings’ functionality: extra-high waist, deep side pockets large enough to hold a phone, and no front seam. Quality and fit deserving of a high price tag, these $40 leggings come in six colorways, from your classic black to the rich-looking Dark Sepia (as shown above), and are available in sizes XS to 4X. As a shopping editor, these thoughtful design choices, pricing, and sizing tell me Old Navy’s goal is to provide accessible, functional, comfortable, and affordable activewear. In my editor’s opinion, these $40 leggings rival any elite celeb-backed activewear option.

But don’t just take my word for it. I asked Sierra Mayhew, WWW fashion editor, to weigh in: “When I first slipped into these leggings I was pleasantly surprised. Since they weren’t from an activewear-first brand, my expectations were low, but the quality matched some of the most high-performance brands out there—except the price point is slashed in half, so naturally I was sold.”

Size range: XS to 4X

Inseam: Regular 25 inches, petite 23 inches, tall 28 inches

Colors: 6

Sizing tip: I opted for a size small and found they fit true to size.
