I’ve tried a lot of “sculpting” leggings that promise a lift and deliver see-through seams instead. So I went in skeptical about the Bona Fide Extra Sex Push-Up Leggings in Black Skin. After squats, runs and a full day of wear, here’s my honest activewear review.
These are shaping workout leggings from Bona Fide, a brand known for booty-lifting activewear. The “Extra Sex Push-Up” line is designed with contouring seams and compressive fabric to sculpt and lift the glutes while you train. This colorway is Black Skin, a versatile everyday black.
You want leggings with a real shaping effect, you do glute-focused training, or you like a compressive, hold-you-in fit for the gym. They’re also popular for everyday athleisure.
You prefer loose, relaxed bottoms or a totally seamless minimalist look — the contouring seams are part of the design. If you dislike compressive fits, these run snug.
Strategically placed seams lift and shape the glutes — the brand’s signature feature and the main reason people buy Bona Fide.
The fabric holds you in with a supportive compression that feels secure during squats and lunges.
The everyday black works for the gym and doubles as athleisure, so they earn plenty of wear.
Built for movement, they’re designed to stay opaque and stay put through a full workout.
On the geolocated storefront I saw, these showed at about ₫1,725,000 VND on sale (regularly around ₫2,617,000 VND), which the site listed near $50 USD at the shown rate. Pricing and currency vary by region, so check the live price in your own currency on the product page before ordering.
Pros: genuine push-up shaping, supportive compression, versatile black colorway, training-ready, popular for athleisure too.
Cons: snug compressive fit isn’t for everyone, contouring seams aren’t a seamless look, regional pricing varies.
Plain gym leggings cover the basics but don’t shape. Bona Fide’s contouring seams and compression add a lifting effect and a more secure hold — the difference you’re paying for if a sculpting fit is what you want.
If you want leggings that actually deliver a shaping, lifted look with supportive compression, the Bona Fide Extra Sex Push-Up in Black Skin is a strong pick. If you prefer loose or seamless minimalist styles, they’re not for you — but for sculpting activewear, they’re worth it.
Yes — the contouring push-up seams are designed to shape and lift the glutes, which is Bona Fide’s signature.
They’re built with compressive fabric designed to stay opaque and secure during training — check size guidance for the best fit.
They run snug and compressive, so consider your preference between a tight sculpting fit and a relaxed one.
Yes — the Black Skin colorway works well as everyday athleisure.
