Not Leggings—This IYKYK Pant Trend Looks Even Better With Black Sneakers, Especially in This Color

Black leggings and black sneakers are a timeless activewear pairing, but if you're looking to refresh your workout wardrobe, consider making one simple swap: trade your classic leggings for navy flared pants. Making a strong case for the trend is Mia Goth, who was recently spotted styling navy flared leggings with black sneakers.

While heading to a yoga class in L.A. last week, Goth showcased the outfit pairing in a simple yet put-together way. She styled a blue oversize graphic T-shirt with navy flared leggings. To personalize her look, she wore a blue bandana tied around her head, a brown-and-white knit shoulder bag, and black retro sunglasses. For her footwear, she selected black Salomon XT-Whisper Sneakers, a popular street style design modeled after early-2000s trail-running shoes.

Flared pants strike the perfect balance between classic leggings and wide-leg pants. Made from the same comfortable, stretchy fabric, they're fitted around the waist, hips, and thighs before gently flaring out at the calf. While similar, they impart a more refined feel that makes them surprisingly easy to weave into an everyday wardrobe. Choosing navy over black also adds subtle depth and dimension, making the outfit feel more interesting without sacrificing versatility.

If you're looking for an alternative to pair with black sneakers, flared leggings or yoga pants are a great choice. You can wear them this summer with a tank top or graphic T-shirt and then take them into the fall with a lightweight sweater or sporty jacket.
