I’m like a furnace when I work out. I don’t sweat properly, so my temperature is not regulated much at all. I’ve left classes at times because I got overheated.

I’m about to start aerials with a local circus troupe (I’m so excited!!) and I must wear close fitting, long pants to classes. So I’m trying to find good ones online and searching “hot women yoga pants” is not helpful at all lol.

I have one nice pair that I’ve worn a few times and I get so hot in them. At home if I go with long pants instead of shorts, I have these super cheap Walmart clearance leggings with ugly prints that are vaguely see through that I never get overly hot in. They’re all made of the same thing - mostly polyester with a bit of spandex.

So I’m coming to the smartest place I know to see what y’all think. Are mesh panels helpful? Does wicking work? How about the thickness or compression levels?

Any aerials experience insights would be an awesome bonus too!
