From Kendall Jenner to Glamour’s own staffers, it’s official—we’re living in a leggings-obsessed world. But a new survey, conducted by retail surveyor Indix, revealed some surprising news about our favorite lounge/workout pants. Here’s what we learned:

• The average price of a pair of yoga leggings has actually dropped over the last several years. In 2014, the average pair retailed for $50.10, and in 2016, the average price was $25.40. Now, the average price has dropped to $20.70. When was the last time something you loved actually became less expensive!?

• Almost all—99 percent!— of yoga pants on the market are made for women (up from 94 percent last year). And men pay an average of $6 more per pair than ladies do. One of the few areas where we pay less than men!

• And the least expensive? 2LUV—$13.40 a pair!

• Americans spent $16 billion on yoga clothing, classes, equipment and accessories in 2016.

• If you’re in the market for some new leggings, you’ll have a lot to choose from: Indix reports that in 2017, 84 different brands make leggings, producing a total of 15,565 styles—nearly double the amount from last year.
