Because sometimes you wanna roar, and sometimes you wanna smolder.
Let’s talk print vs. solid—aka the timeless showdown in the world of meggings. On one hand, you’ve got bold, fearless, scene-stealing prints that practically scream, “LOOK AT ME!” And on the other, you’ve got sleek, cool, confident solids that whisper, “I’ve already won.”
So, which one should you wear?
The answer: both. But not at the same time. (Unless you’re feeling chaotic. In that case, we support you.)
In this guide, we’ll break down the vibe, styling tips, and perfect occasions for both bold prints and solid colors—so you know exactly when to bring the thunder and when to serve minimalist realness.

Let’s Start With Bold Prints: The Life of the Party
Think tiger stripes, lightning bolts, neon swirls, holographic madness. These meggings are here to steal the spotlight, grab the aux cord, and start the dance circle.
Wearing bold prints is like saying, “Yeah, I am the main character,” and meaning it.
When to Wear Bold Prints
- Festivals & Parties:
Bold prints are born for bass drops and strobe lights. Wear them to raves, carnivals, and wild warehouse parties. The louder the print, the better the vibe.
- Fitness Classes (Where You Wanna Be Noticed):
Forget blending in at spin class. You’re the one turning heads during those burpees in your lava-print leggings.
- Pride, Parades & Protests:
When you’re standing for something, wear something that speaks loud too.
- Photoshoots & Content Days:
Want your Instagram feed to pop? Nothing delivers like space-themed thigh-hugging fabulousness.
- Travel Looks (When You Don’t Care About Subtlety):
Heading to Ibiza? Tokyo? Vegas? Bold prints = built-in icebreakers and epic airport fits.
How to Style Bold Prints
- Let them shine. Keep your top simple—solid black or white tees work every time.
- Match your vibe, not the print. Don’t try to echo every color in your leggings. Pick one and stick to it.
- Footwear matters. Go sleek—trainers, boots, or even platform sneakers. No flip-flops, please. Unless you’re beach-bound.

Now Let’s Talk Solid Colors: The Subtle Seducer
Solid meggings are the quiet storm of your wardrobe. They don’t scream—but they command attention. Clean, sharp, and oh-so-easy to style, they’re your ride-or-die basics that still turn heads.
When to Wear Solid Colors
- Everyday Errands (But Make It Fashion):
Grocery run? Airport dash? Walk of shame? Solid meggings have your back.
- Gym or Workout Sessions:
When you want to feel fierce but focused, solid tones bring out beast mode without distractions.
- First Dates or Casual Hangouts:
Pairing black meggings with a crisp tee and boots says, “Yeah, I’m hot, but I’m also chill.”
- Layered Outfits:
Wearing a statement jacket or wild top? Solid meggings are the perfect canvas.
- Travel Capsule Wardrobes:
Pack one black pair and you’ve got like 7 outfit options. They go with everything.
How to Style Solid Meggings
- Layer up. Add texture and movement up top—denim, flannel, mesh, leather—go wild.
- Play with contrast. Pair dark meggings with light tops and vice versa. Add accessories like rings, beanies, or chains to turn a basic fit into a whole look.
- Experiment with footwear. Unlike bold prints, solids are more forgiving—high-tops, Chelsea boots, sandals? All fair game.
Start simple. Browse the Men’s Leggings Collection and snag your new favorite pair in black, burgundy, or charcoal grey.

What About Mixing Prints and Solids?
Want to dip your toe into the bold zone without diving all in? Easy: mix a solid legging with a bold top, or vice versa. It’s the best of both worlds. Just keep your accessories neutral to avoid overload.
Or try subtle prints—like tone-on-tone patterns or darker camo—so you get the flavor of bold without going full disco.
Final Thoughts: Wear the Mood
Here’s the thing: there’s no wrong answer when it comes to meggings. Solid or printed, it’s not about trends—it’s about what feels good that day. Style isn’t about following rules—it’s about expressing you, one leg at a time.
So whether you’re feeling spicy and loud or cool and lowkey, know this: you’re still serving. You’re still iconic. And you’re still part of the #KapowFam.
Now go on—grab your fave meggings, pick your moment, and strut that runway. (Even if it’s just your hallway.)
