Whether for actually working out or weekend errands, leggings have been considered a wardrobe essential for quite some time now. However, lately, for reasons I probably don’t need to get into, I think we can all agree that they’re getting more use than ever. I know I wear leggings more than I’d like to admit these days, whether it’s for my morning yoga, to work from home, quick walks around my neighborhood, or just to hang out , and it’s made me realize that my collection could definitely use a little sprucing up.
Naturally, my next move was to turn to Amazon . After all, I can’t shop in stores to get a sense of what pieces are really like up-close, and sleuthing through Amazon’s review section is the next best thing. So sleuth I did, all so I could bring you (and myself) the best leggings the site has to offer, based on what real customers had to say. From cropped styles to longer cuts to countless pairs with pockets—a feature I’m learning is a game-changer—just keep scrolling to shop all 24 of the highly reviewed and loved leggings that made the cut.
Compelling review: “Buy these. Buy them right now. I ordered the small and the medium planning to return whichever pair didn’t fit my daughter. I kept the medium for myself once I felt how incredibly thick and nice these are. Unlike many other brands of fleece tights, the inside of these stays LOVELY even after the wash (and the dryer by accident for my daughter’s pair) AND they do NOT attract dog fur which is always winning in our house.”
Compelling review: “I love these. No complaints.”
Compelling review: “Very comfortable and flattering fit. I absolutely love Under Armour leggings for my sessions at the gym. I’m 5’10” and buy the large size which is a comfortable fit for me.”
Compelling review: “I have searched high and low for a so called ‘lulu dupe’ and these are the closest thing I have found. And let me tell you, I am picky. Great quality and fit! The fabric is buttery soft (although more silky than the lulu align pant – but I personally love it) they have great compression but still super light weight.”
Compelling review: “Great leggings, I’m size 12 with long muscular legs and these fit perfect, ordered size large. If you like a really tight fit size down 1 size, but fit is good and my butt looks great! Can’t see through the material and they hide panty lines fairly well.”
Compelling review: “I really like this legging! Very comfortable and breathable material. Good quality. Love the pockets on 2 sides – now I know where to put my phone in gym. Highly recommend it!”
Compelling review: “I have tried several brands of workout pants, ranging in prices. Out of all of them (including Lululemon) these are the best. They are tight enough to stay put while moving, but soft and loose enough to be comfortable all day. The best!”
Compelling review: “These leggings are by far my favorite! They fit very well. They don’t slip down like some others I own. They also stretch a lot so they are very comfortable and still cover very well. They are not thick so definitely not for cold weather but perfect for fall/spring. The material is very soft…I am super happy with these and for the price, they are even better! Will definitely be ordering more colors!
Compelling review: “Received these yesterday and can’t get over how comfy they are! The material is soft and feels good against your skin. They do run long, which is not a problem for me. I bought these to walk around the neighborhood and relax in, during those cool evenings that we have in Florida. Perfect!”
Compelling review:”I was so glad I bought these. I’m 5’7” and leggings are always too short but I could be 5’10” and these would be fine! Soft and comfy. I’m a 10 and the mediums fit without being too constricting at all.”
Compelling review:”I absolutely love these yoga pants from the feel of the fabric, fit, color and functionality! I’ve used them for running, and working out. For my run and workout they stayed in place and I didn’t have that uncomfortable sweaty feeling because they were definitely breathable. And for running around errands throughout your day the pockets are a plus so you can have your phone.”
Compelling review: “Like the fit. Very comfortable and fabric is not too thin.”
Compelling review: “I really liked these leggings! Bought them in 5 colors! The fabric is soft, and silky! Thin enough to be comfortable and not tight in the waist, and the best of all, its not see through! I wear them all the time! Have washed them several times and the color stays!”
Compelling review: “I absolutely love this pair of leggings. Fits true to size. I’m 5’4 130 lbs athletic build and a small fits like a glove. The length hits right at my ankle. The material feels sturdy and thick. The pockets are a plus because I like to just carry my essentials with me. Highly recommend.”
Compelling review:”They are so worth the price and sturdy like expensive workout leggings.”
Compelling review:”I absolutely love these leggings! They are my favorite ever. I did size up one as I wear them mostly for leisure and occasional hiking. I’m not going for compression, I’m going for comfort. They have just enough form to not bag or stretch out but they hold everything in place. They make my fanny look great. I fully intend to buy them in more colors.”
Compelling review:”These fit great! For reference I’m 5’3″ and 138lbs. My waist is 28″ and hips are 40″ and I bought a medium. These black leggings have enough compression that they hold everything in without being too tight. They stretch without being see through and they have pockets! What else could you ask for? Oh and they are super soft and comfortable.”
Compelling review:”I own about 5 pairs of leggings from this brand, and I am FOREVER SOLD!!! If anyone were to ask me which leggings I love I would immediately mention these. I prefer these over my Nike & Adidas leggings any day. They are also squat proof (for me at least). These fit so comfortably and are very flattering! I love my leggings high waisted, it keeps my tummy in control without suffocating me.”
Compelling review:”I absolutely love these leggings so soft and not to thick either. Also loving the thick waist band helps keep the stomach smooth!”
Compelling review: “Exactly what I was looking for. These leggings are so comfortable and make me feel so secure. They fit perfectly. The high waiste means I don’t have to adjust them when I sit down or stand up.”
Compelling review:”So happy. So so so happy. These 7/8 leggings done perfectly. On someone taller these will fall like true 7/8 and on someone shorter like myself they are full length. Plus these seem really well made. So far I have done quite a few workouts that involve movement and big stretches and they haven’t given me any trouble.”
Compelling review:”I’ve been searching for a LONG time on Amazon for the perfect leggings. I wanted high quality like the expensive Lululemon or P’tula without spending a lot of money. After returning many leggings from other sellers, I came across these. I workout out a lot and have tried many leggings and these by far are the most comfortable to work out in! They def pass the squat test, are not see through at ALL, and have convenient pockets that I didn’t think I needed but love.”
Compelling review: “They fit great ! I honestly think I’ve found a new pair of favorite leggings! They looked like it would be too small because I have thicker thighs but once on these leggings complimented my legs ! Oh and super comfy!”
Compelling review: “I love these leggings. I’m always collecting leggings, I have a collection of various colors and designs. If I had to categorize these–they are the most comfortable.”
