The full review
We expected PowerSoft to be the obvious value-tier flop. They were not. They held up across two months of daily use, with only minor pilling beginning around the back-of-thigh seam. They are not the absolute peak performance pick, but at $35 you can buy two pairs for the price of one Lululemon Align and have a genuinely usable training legging on the second.
