If you thought 2021 was off to a rocky start, you were right — but right now, we have a glimmer of good news. We discovered that Aerie just restocked these coveted leg-huggers in black for the fifth time — and this time, they’ve added plethora of new styles and colors to the mix. Along with the standard black, there’s now a rainbow of tie-dye tones — including brown, pink, and a summer-ready blue-green — along with a pair designed in collaboration with gymnast Aly Raisman. New silhouettes include a bike short, a shortie bike short, swim bottoms, and — wait for it! — a flared yoga-pant style, proving that the early-aughts bottom is officially back on the scene for summer.
If this single brand of activewear won’t satisfy your lounging needs, never fear: we also combed the internet for every single serviceable dupe of the v-waisted style we could find — unearthing options from the likes of Nike, ASOS, Amazon’s Core 10 activewear label, and more. So, if you see a pair of waist-trimming, curve-hugging leggings in your future, get to shopping — while Aerie has expanded their offering considerably, the assortment probably won’t stick around for long.
You never want something until you can’t have it. So, each week in The Sell-Out, we’re getting the scoop from your favorite retailers on what’s selling like crazy. Watch this space to find out what everyone’s buying, sign up for waitlists, and keep tabs on restocks.
At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.
