Do Scrunch Bum Leggings Really Work?
We tested several scrunch bum leggings and shorts for this review. Mary tried more pairs than I did, so be sure to watch our video for an in-depth look. She compares leggings from Amazon, evaluating comfort and look. Check out the full try-on below!
In this blog, I'll share my experience with the scrunch bum leggings and shorts I’ve tried.
My Experience with Scrunch Bum Leggings & Shorts
I’ve tried scrunch bum leggings from Gymshark (Butterfly Collection) and shorts from NVGTN. Let’s break down my experience with both brands.
NVGTN Scrunch Bum Shorts

The NVGTN shorts looked cute, but the wedgie was unbearable. Despite constant adjustments, I couldn't stay comfortable during my workouts. These shorts do accentuate your glutes, but comfort is more important to me. I ended up selling them on Poshmark after a few months.
Gymshark Butterfly Leggings

The Gymshark leggings provided a more subtle scrunch bum. They were comfortable with just enough support. The scrunch bum effect was barely noticeable, but it gave me a slight boost without being uncomfortable. These leggings have become one of my favorites!
Whitney Simmons x Gymshark Shorts

The scrunch bum on these Whitney Simmons x Gymshark shorts is subtle, and I love how soft they feel. They give a natural boost without the effect being overly noticeable. They’re some of the most comfortable scrunch bum shorts I own.
Final Thoughts
Scrunch bum leggings and shorts definitely do their job—accentuating your glutes. If that’s your goal, they work as advertised. However, comfort is my priority. I prefer regular leggings. If you’re okay with the occasional wedgie, scrunch bum leggings might be right for you.
I personally prefer Gymshark’s scrunch bum leggings over NVGTN’s. NVGTN makes your butt look great, but the scrunch bum is more prominent and less comfortable, in my experience.
