Oh, the beloved black leggings—a millennial's most prized wardrobe possession. From their unmatched levels of comfort and versatility, these babies were worn literally everywhere. So when Gen Z declared the popular athleisure wear uncool, it was quite the humbling experience. And while there's no need to mourn the loss of your favorite activewear (just yet), think of it as a sign to get out of your comfort zone (no pun intended) and evolve from the quintessential black legging, while training your eye to be more open to fresh and new workout alternatives.

Brands took note and rose to the occasion. New activewear shapes emerged from flared hems to trail-inspired gorpcore styles.

Below are some leggings-free alternatives to wear for everything from working out to weekending, traveling, and beyond.
