If there’s one brand that came highly recommended by nearly every fitness expert we spoke with, it’s Beyond Yoga. All around, it’s one of the best places to buy maternity workout clothes.

These legging won the top overall place in our list of the best maternity leggings after extensive testing. According to mom Brooke Cates, founder of pre and postnatal exercise program The Bloom Method, “These leggings have that same buttery-soft feel that make so many women love the Lululemon Align legging. They fit securely on the body and honestly feel like a second skin.” We like that they can be worn over or under your bump, depending on what’s most comfortable for you. Tessa Arneson, founder of Maven Strong, says they “really stay up on the bump and come in the most fun colors.” They’re also quick-drying, moisture-wicking and feature UV protection for outdoor workouts.

These ultra-chic, sweat-wicking maternity leggings are made from recycled plastic and feature a foldable, over-the-belly rise and barely-there feel. “They’re lightweight, stretchy, seamless, and are the most versatile on this list, taking you from the gym to lunch effortlessly,” says Cates. They come in an incredibly inclusive size range, are Oeko-Tex and Bluesign certified, meaning they’re free from a long list of harmful substances—making them especially appealing for pregnant women. Perfect for outdoor sweat sessions, they’re extra breathable and equipped with UPF 50+ protection.

While Lululemon’s beloved Align Leggings aren’t maternity specific, so many moms swear by them, myself included. “These iconic leggings have yet to be replicated although many have tried,” says Cates. Ideal for low-intensity workouts, she loves “their buttery-soft texture, the way they stay put and don’t move throughout the day and their amazing ability to transition with you whether you’re pregnant or postpartum. They don’t become overstretched and far outlast just the pregnancy phase.”

Vuori makes some of the softest and chicest workout essentials, and the quality is unparalleled—I’ve owned plenty of pieces myself. This sports bra is Cates’ go-to for pregnancy. “Not only is it another item that transitions well throughout the trimesters, but its shorter-torso design is great for a growing belly while the fabric and stretch is perfect for changing breast sizes while still being supportive.” The strappy back is a trendy touch, plus it comes in plenty of fun colors and classic neutrals to suit your style. We wouldn’t wear this to go for a run, but it’s great for low-impact activities, like hiking, yoga and stroller walks.

Perry is a big fan of Love & Fit’s nursing sports bras. They “provide excellent coverage, support and are great for transitioning into postpartum,” she says. Pregnant moms will appreciate the adjustable straps and band, allowing this sports bra to expand with your growing breasts. It’s breastfeeding-friendly without looking or feeling like it, thanks to a stylish strappy back, and it has removable cups you can easily replace with nursing pads for when baby arrives. “The material is soft and comfortable you don’t feel like you’re wearing a bra,” writes one reviewer. “I mountain bike, run, hike, etc., and this bra is 100% supportive.”

If you’re a runner, into Crossfit or are a regular at Barry’s Bootcamp, this wireless nursing sports bra is a great option during pregnancy and beyond. A high-coverage design keeps your girls covered so you can focus on fitness, and a wide chest band provides ample support to minimize bounce. The shoulder straps are wide and adjustable, and there’s a six-row hook and eye closure in the back for extra comfort and flexibility as your body and breasts fluctuate in size. Many reviewers report it’s super easy to pump and nurse in one-handed.

Bao Bei may not have the big name recognition of Beyond Yoga or Lululemon, but our fitness experts praised the brand. These mid-length athletic biker shorts, in particular, are a favorite of Erica Ziel, a deep core exercise specialist. “Designed by a physical therapist with postpartum mom’s recovery needs in mind, they help give more feedback and support for the abdominals and pelvic floor after birth without being too restrictive, which could help with pelvic floor and core recovery postpartum,” she says. They’re flattering, comfortable and super slimming too, helping you feel more secure in your body after birth.

If you live in your Lulu Aligns, the shorts are a summer pregnancy wardrobe staple. “They feel just like the leggings but with the comfort of a short for sweatier workouts and warmer days,” says Cates. They stretch to fit your changing body at every stage without stretching out and, while pricey, are worth the investment because you can use them beyond pregnancy. “They stay put, keep the belly in and they don’t show your cheeks even if you do more intense things,” writes one reviewer. Another calls the darker colors “squat proof.”

These bestselling maternity shorts have over 60 reviews and an almost-perfect 4.9-star rating. Made by women, they’re perfect for moms looking for a lightweight, looser-fitting short to get them through pregnancy and workouts comfortably without restricting movement. We like the wide, stretchy waistband for extra support and the built-in liner for full coverage. “I’m living in these shorts in the heat of summer during my pregnancy,” writes one reviewer. “So comfortable, true to size, love the pockets.”

Whether you’re running errands, running after little ones or going for an actual run, these workout shorts have you covered. They come in lots of cute colors and “have a super stretchy waist band that allow your belly to grow but don’t scream maternity,” notes Perry. There’s an incredibly comfortable spandex inner layer, covered by a lightweight outer layer. The inner short has a convenient hidden side pocket to stash your phone, keys or wallet. Size down if you’re in between sizes for the best fit.

Loiacono loves the price, selection and style, especially the cute side ruching, of these fitted maternity workout tanks. They accentuate your bump without being uncomfortable, and the ruching at the waist stretches as your stomach stretches outward. “They allow for the perfect amount of coverage along with the perfect fit,” she says. They’re also lightweight, breathable and moisture-wicking to beat the heat and keep you cool and dry when you’re breaking a sweat.

Both Ziel and Perry recommend the Beyond Yoga workout tops. This buttery-soft and breathable racerback tank is great for layering on a cold morning or can be paired with matching bottoms to hit the gym. “It moves with you during your workouts and is so comfy you’ll want to wear it all day,” adds Perry. It features a convenient built-in bra, UPF 50+ protection and shirred sides for a great fit at any size. It’s also a piece you can easily rock without a pregnant belly, helping justify the premium price tag.

Nike is known for its quality activewear, and this reversible maternity pullover is frankly genius. You can wear it with the split hem in the front for easy breastfeeding access or to warm up when babywearing on stroller walks. It can also be easily turned around so the split hem is in the back. We like that it’s sustainable and composed of 75% recycled polyester fibers. It’s long and loose-fitting, for those who don’t want anything pressing their bump.
