Skechers Go Walk High Waisted Legging - Supportive High-Rise Fit

Our review of the Skechers Go Walk High Waisted Legging finds them best suited for active women who want dependable support and everyday versatility. The single biggest reason to buy is the double layer compression high-waisted waistband that provides firm tummy control and a stay-in-place fit during movement, making these leggings a reliable choice for gym sessions, walks, or casual wear. They balance a performance-minded fabric with stylish details so they work equally well as workout leggings or comfortable daily wear.

Key Features

• High-waisted support: The double layer compression waistband offers strong tummy control and helps the leggings stay in place through dynamic movement.
• Performance fabric: The nylon and spandex blend gives four-way stretch and moisture-wicking performance to handle sweaty workouts while maintaining a soft, cotton-like feel.
• Practical pockets: Exterior side pockets provide convenient storage for keys, phone, or small essentials during runs or gym visits.
• Full coverage length: The 26 in inseam delivers full-length coverage for many wearers while allowing mobility for squats and lunges.
• Sun protection: UPF 40+ fabric helps protect skin during outdoor activities, making these leggings suitable for outdoor training.
• Stylish accents: Floral side panels add a casual, feminine look that transitions easily from exercise to everyday outfits.

Who It's For

These leggings are aimed at women who want a supportive, stay-put pair for workouts and everyday wear. The combination of a compression high-rise waistband, moisture-wicking stretch fabric, and practical pockets makes them especially good for walkers, gym-goers, and anyone who values both comfort and mid-level compression during activity.

They may not be the best choice for those seeking maximum coverage beyond a 26 in inseam or those who need very heavy compression medical garments; a longer inseam or firmer medical-grade compression would be better elsewhere.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Comfortable, soft nylon-spandex blend that still feels supportive during exercise.
• Pockets sized well for essentials without adding bulk to the silhouette.
