Molly-Mae Hague’s favourite high-street gym leggings are back in stock after a FIVE-YEAR wait

Good news for gym-goers and fashion lovers alike – the legendary Gymshark ‘Whitney’ leggings are officially back and they’ve got everyone talking! After five long years of patiently waiting, Gymshark has brought back the iconic Whitney Simmons leggings, first released as part of fitness influencer's 2019 collaboration with the brand.

And if the buzz around them wasn’t enough, celebs like Molly-Mae Hague and Molly Smith have been spotted rocking the comeback leggings on Instagram, giving us serious FOMO.

Why are these leggings so special?

If you didn’t manage to snag a pair back in 2019, now’s your chance to grab the ultimate fitness wardrobe staple. These leggings have been touted as some of the most flattering and comfortable on the market, thanks to their high-waisted fit, tummy-smoothing waistband, and invisible ‘bum scrunch’ design. Made with Gymshark’s signature sweat-wicking material, they promise to keep you feeling fresh whether you're hitting the gym, running errands, or lounging on the sofa (because, let’s face it, they look that good).

But it’s not just the design or winter-ready colour palette that’s turned heads. The leggings also offer amazing performance, with a fit that’s squat-proof and supports your body’s movements during intense workouts - from HIIT to yoga. Is it any wonder they've become a celeb fave?

Celebs can't stop wearing them

Molly-Mae Hague has officially brought these leggings back into the limelight. The Love Island star-turned-entrepreneur posted a snap on her Instagram in a pair of black Whitney leggings, dressed up with a cosy black turtleneck and dark cherry coat. Her chic, sporty look has amassed hundreds of thousands of likes and sparked a wave of excitement from her followers who were desperate to get their hands on a pair.

And if you needed any more proof of these leggings' celeb status, fellow influencer and Love Island alum Molly Smith was spotted wearing the navy pair in her own Insta post. Yep, these leggings have officially made their way to the top of every fitness fashionista’s wish list!

Gymshark's return of the Whitney leggings couldn't have come at a better time. In fact, you can be sure you'll see them all over the gym come January. They're so iconic, the brand had to bring them back after years of demand from fans - many of which, have taken to social media to share their excitement.

In response to the news, one person writes: "These are the best Gymshark leggings ever, WHAT!?"

"I don't think you understand how exciting it is that the Whitney legging is here to stay," writes another.

Adding to the list of celebrity fans, YouTuber Saffron Barker was also seen posing in the cult-fave item.

In terms of design, the brand has kept true to the original, making subtle tweaks to improve fit and performance without compromising on the magic that made them famous in the first place. The buttery-soft fabric, combined with the high-rise waistband and sculpting details, ensures that you’ll not only look great but feel amazing too. After all, if your gym fits are cute, you lift heavier, right?

They're available in a range of colours, too (hello, staple black, soft purple and moody winter hues) so you can grab your perfect pair to match your vibe - whether you want to stand out at the squat rack or just cosy up for your coffee shop trips. There's even joggers and sweatshirts to match!
