Sorry I know this has been done a thousand times but can you let me know your best leggings? Ideally budget

I want to know this too! Sainsbury's leggings used to be amazing, but they're nowhere near as good now.

i used to say sainsburys all the way, but last time i bought some they didn't come up as far and were much thinner. Still better than a lot out there though.

Primark have thick ones that are decent but obviously that's not doable at the moment

I have some sainsburys ones and they're brilliant but now I'm gutted because previous post just said they've changed!

The Sainsbury's ones are nowhere near as good as they used to be. It's so annoying!

I really like the Amazon brand ones - Iris and Lilly I think they're called. They're really good - wash well, don't attract every bloody cat hair within a mile radius, and comfy waistband Smile

Just a little bump, I'll try the amazon ones. Sainsbury's seems a no go. Any others to try please let me know

I got some in M&S that I was really impressed with.

The ones from Mint Velvet are the best I've bought.

I second Mint Velvet. The waistband is wide and comfortable, they wash well and are of decent quality.

@EraOfTheGrey @PaulRobinsonsWoodenLeg how's the sizing? I'm a 10 just wondering whether to go for small or medium?

Mint Velvet all the way for me too. Not budget but the quality is second to none. Fab wide waistband too. I’m a size 12/14 waist and size 16 bum and I wear the large which fit perfectly. Maybe a tad loose on the waist after one wear but fit everywhere else.

Tesco!
High waist, wide waist band, long leg, super stretchy.
They do sell more than one style though. £6

Nutmeg at Morrisons. Only £10 but have a deep waistband, don't disintegrate in the wash and are nice and thick.

I have some amazing ones, really soft, hair don't stick to them and not at all see through! 100% my favourite pair.. but I don't know where I got them from😭 the label says leggings eleven🤷‍♀️ gutted because I want more

I bought a load of cheap and cheerful ones from Futuro Fashion on amazon. Loads of bright colours, not too see-through (the green ones were a bit, but mostly because of the colour) and they wash well, with high waistbands.

Joe Browns leggings are good, but cost a good bit. Simply Be's basic leggings used to be quite good and aren't too expensive and also come in longer lengths if you are tall.

Recently got some from h&m with a wide waistband that seem very good so far!

Topshop. The only ones I've found that don't get baggy knees 🤢

I've only got one pair but the best ones I've ever bought ie they stay black, don't bag or fall down and they're long enough are H&M heavy duty ones. They were pretty cheap as well.

They are out of stock online at the moment, but for future, Asda’s thermal leggings are really good, £8 a pair, really soft and thick, nice high waistband. Mine are 6 months old, worn and washed at least weekly and still look good.

I'm going to recommend Boden. Pricy but amazing. They last forever.

I bought a load of black ones from Collusion on ASOS just before lock down. Very cheap, stay black, high waisted, and very soft and comfy.

@hellswelshy don't suppose you could link? I've gone into H&m website but none described as heavy duty

Thanks again everyone, mint velvet abit more expensive but don't mind if they are good, if someone could just help with the sizing query? Also looking at recent reviews on John Lewis last 10 or so reviews are bad saying the material has changed
