The Gymshark Lift Seamless 2.0 Mid-Rise Leggings are a seamless, contoured legging with a brand squat-proof claim. The fabric is 92% nylon and 8% elastane, the rise sits just below the belly button, and the price is about $64. Sizes run XXS to XXL (US 0-14). It suits lifters who dislike a very high waistband, and it comes with the usual Gymshark limits on size range and pockets. The brand also warns that three light shades can turn sheer when stretched.

Fit and sizing
The page lists sizes XXS (0-2) to XXL (12-14), a Mid-rise fit that sits just below the belly button, and no inseam measurement. The model is 5'6". If you prefer a high waist, the New Whitney is the high-rise option. There is no extended size range, so shoppers above 14 should look at Fabletics or Girlfriend Collective.
Fabric and feel
The fabric is 92% nylon and 8% elastane, with seamless construction, 360-degree contouring and contouring rib textures. The page promises soft fabric, four-way stretch and a lower-profile bum scrunch, and says it keeps you cool. The brand claims thicker, squat-proof fabric but warns that Butter Yellow, Super Set Pink and Physical Pink can become sheer when stretched and recommends nude underwear with them.
How it performs for lifting
Many lifters prefer a mid-rise waistband that does not press on the stomach during squats and hinges, and the seamless build means no inner-thigh seams to rub. The brand also lists a lower-profile bum scrunch and contouring rib textures. The lower elastane percentage means less snap-back than a heavy compression legging. There are no pockets on the page.
Price and value
At about $64, it costs about $10 more than the Whitney. You pay for the seamless build and the mid-rise cut. See Gymshark for the brand overview.
Alternatives
For a cheaper option, the Whitney is about $54. For a premium squat-friendly option, the Wunder Train has more hold. See our best squat-proof leggings.
Who should skip it

The verdict
A seamless, mid-rise gym legging with a squat-proof claim at a reasonable price, and a good alternative to a high-rise if that waistband bothers you. Buy it if you prefer a lower waist and a contoured look. Skip it if you want a high rise, pockets, light colors without nude underwear, or sizes above 14.
