There are a great many things in the past that I would like to stay buried, but above all else, my once-militant insistence that “leggings are not pants” tops the list.
If only I could turn back time and take that rude, uncomfortable girl that I was and shake her, screaming in her face how wrong she is! Perhaps I was just ignorant, or perhaps I was simply a bitch because I was stuffing my arse into uncomfortable pants day after day. I guess we’ll never know.
Sure, I understand the stigma against leggings, but the truth is that you will be left without a shred of doubt once you actually wiggle yourself into a pair. There’s something about the smooth, stretchy housing of a good pair of leggings that makes you feel free! Unfettered! And totally comfortable AF.
Although leggings are sported by young and old alike, there is one crowd that simply cannot get enough of them. Leggings could go out of style; however, it is this one group of folks who will never, ever let them.
Moms.
Leggings are as essential a part of parenthood for moms as caffeine or yelling. Through thick and thin, good times and bad, our leggings stay close and support us in ways that our friends and family never could. Leggings are a gift to moms everywhere and help make our days just a little bit easier.
