I want my synthetic leggings to remain as elastic and stable as possible. I use leggings for both social occasions and yoga, running and sport.
I’ve never done this and wonder if it works.
Alternatively, what works for you?

Yeah, that (lack of) friction makes a huge difference though, and is the only reason I wish I had a thigh gap. I do find that the more athletic/activewear fabrics tend to hold up longer, while the “buttery”/loungewear fabrics wear out faster.
It’s unfortunate that comfort usually comes at the cost of durability. Similar to rigid 100% cotton jeans vs jeggings. These days I don’t really wear leggings for lounging anymore. I just get a couple pairs of wide linen pants hemmed above my ankles. They’re super comfortable in hot/humid climates in particular where leggings may be a bit stifling. While not any more durable (maybe even less so if the fabric is pretty loosely woven), I think the comfort is worth it.
