Ladies often wear yoga pants to workouts, run errands, or attend social gatherings. But how can you integrate concealed carry into these everyday garments? Carrying in a purse or handbag is sub-optimal for self-defense, as your firearm may not be readily accessible in an emergency. The solution is to look for concealment leggings that come with integrated holsters.

Versatile

When you’re armed, you need clothing that can hold your gun and still work for your active lifestyle. Tactical leggings do just that, and they look like any other pair of leggings you’d wear to the gym or for a casual day out with friends. Explicitly designed for concealed carry, these leggings feature an integrated holster that makes it easy to carry a handgun without sacrificing comfort or style. They’re perfect for jogging on your favorite path or for running errands. Most holsters are designed for men’s bodies, so they may not fit correctly with women’s pants, especially in the most popular carry positions—inside the waistband (IWB) or outside the waistband (OWB). These leggings feature five different holstering options, so you can choose the best place to keep your weapon, whether it’s IWB or OWB. They also have plenty of pockets for your phone, keys, and other essentials.

Concealed

Concealed carry yoga pants are gaining popularity in the firearm concealment industry. Some come with built-in holsters, eliminating the need for a belt or additional accessories. Belly band holsters, for example, are slim and soft, fitting snugly against your stomach and hips for optimal concealment. They also feature trigger protection, retention, quick draw, and reholstering. Meanwhile, corset holsters double as shapewear for a flattering look and offer two carrying methods: kidney and appendix carry. Other leggings have concealed carry pockets that fit a small firearm without printing. These are great for everyday wear at the gym or a night out with friends.

Comfortable

These leggings are made from a soft, breathable blend of nylon and spandex. They are machine washable, making them easy to care for and versatile enough for everyday use. They offer two holster pockets inside the waistband and at the “kidney” position in the back of the pants. This allows you to carry your weapon without having to wear a belt or have it stick out of the waistband. In pocket spaces, you can also take other self-defense tools like pepper spray, knives, flashlights, and tourniquets. While you could make a pair of yoga pants yourself, many options on the market have been designed with women’s safety in mind. Some are more comfortable than others, but all are safe and functional. Be wary of leggings with a “pocket to stick your gun in.” This is not safe and should not be done. Instead, it would help to look for a holster that offers absolute retention and a hard shell to keep your firearm secure.

Fashionable

Ladies love to wear yoga pants for workouts, jogs, and even night outings with girls. These comfortable bottoms cling to the body, making them ideal for concealed carry. However, finding a concealed carry holster fitting this tight attire is challenging. Luckily, a few concealed carry clothing options make it possible. One option is a belly band holster, which sits comfortably in the waistband and helps hide a firearm from casual observation. Another option is to pair yoga pants with a concealed carry shirt explicitly designed for women who choose to carry. Some shirts have tank top designs that allow ladies to hide their guns under the arm, while others keep the firearm near the appendix or hip. These shirts also feature ambidextrous pockets for extra magazines, flashlights, or knives. They are perfect for pairing with leggings and other casual apparel. This way, you can get the utmost comfort and style while thoroughly preparing for an emergency.
