This also makes them well-suited for a wide range of additional sports and activities that call for the person to spend short or extended periods on their knees. The MAÄT 1.0 Legging features a [sweat-wicking fabric with a four-way stretch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/align-no-line-highrise-pant) that is also paired with a high waistband to help the garment stay securely in place.
