Funky printed running leggings fit for purpose

Mine are all plain black pretty much. I'd like some that don't slip down and ideally have a pocket, and with a colourful print.

Brookes leggings are great! Bright and colourful and incredibly comfy

Although just looked online at their new stuff and it seems much blander sadly

I've got pairs from Run Mummy Run and Sturdy by Design. Really happy with both. Both have a drawstring at the waist, and fit my phone in the back pocket.

Tikiboo are great, pocket, high waist that doesn’t slip and plenty of bright designs.

A cautious second for Tikiboo here - cautious because I've only worn mine once so not sure how they will wash and wear, but in first wearing they were wonderful. Didn't move at all at parkrun on Saturday, even without a drawstring.

I have some Tikiboo ones (Halloween Mr Men to be precise) which are good, but if you want a less mainstream print then my favourites are from Razorstorm. My son also has some from there, and the Fire and Ice leggings get comments everywhere he goes. Quality is excellent, and you don't see so many people in them

I've got two pairs by DHB which is Wiggles own brand. Perfect fit, very reasonable price (even better in the sale) and always get compliments on them at races!

I get mine from Amazon, they have some really funky patterns.

These capris have great pockets down the sides

I can normally only wear the Lululemon ones with a drawstring, rest fall down. But just got a pair of Bara leggings on sale and they stay up like by magic. www.barasportswear.com/

My oldest tikiboos are about 4-5 years old? So they've covered good milage!

Decathlon is not the funkiest, but they have become more colourful and are very well designed.

Have a look a Lucy Locket Loves. Loads of fun prints, they stay up well on long runs and are reasonably priced.

Tikiboo

Talking of Tikiboo, what are their bras like for running in? They dont look that supportive and although you can 'sort' them.by activity, when I've selected running, not many if the individual descriptions say they're good for running. I wear a 36dd normal bra so was thinking of going for large but not sure. A few of the reviews say not great or wouldn't recommend for large chests. They dont offer free returns so I want to get it right first time if I can.
