Best Black Leggings

11 replies

Need black leggings, I have really fat thighs and they always spilt on the inner thigh seam. I need a bigger size as well, a 16 or 18. I was going to buy some from Sainsbury's because they have been okay in the past and last a medium amount of time, but I was shocked to find they are up to £12 a pair! I normally just wear them around the house or under skirts, so maybe a nice thick, comfy pair.

Any recommendation of the best place, I prefer to shop online rather than go into the store as well.

I have only ever had the Sainsburys ones but they were £10 and did not know they had gone up to £12 but I believe they have their 20% off sale starting sometime very soon but not sure when, not helpful really LOL.

Well I do appreciate some suggestions. I think I might try LaRedoute (sp?).

I buy the peacocks ones 12 for two pairs they are really comfy, wash well and don't sag. That's wearing and washing constantly as I wear them to work...best I've came across

I've tried Next, Sainsburys, M&S etc and though expensive (for leggings) Boden have come up trumps for me. They wash like a rag, aren't see through and keep their shape. Had a couple of pairs for good few years - no holes, no loss of stretch. I always get a pair of them when those tenner vouchers turn up.

Boden are fab, or M&S are pretty good. Best ones I've found are lululemon but they are a bit more expensive.

While I at Costco, they had some leggings, so I thought I would give them a try. They are really comfy and thick, but they are extra tight, which I guess if you have a problem with sagging would be good. I haven't washed them yet, but I would buy another pair. I think I'll try getting some from Boden and Peacocks too.

I buy them from Next. They do run through in the end but usually after a year or so of regular use. Most importantly they aren't see through!

Peacocks here too.

When I was pregnant my Mum got me some very soft and stretchy Tesco leggings. I thought they would be awful but actually a year later im still wearing them and they are great!!
