Where can I get good exercise leggings that don’t fall down?

i bought a pair from Penneys/primark I was sooo excited for because they looked good when I tried them on, only for them to fall down throughout the day, not even when I’m running just normal every day activities :/ I had to end my workout short because I was literally running whilst holding my pants up lol

i have a pair of Victoria’s Secret leggings from USA that are perf, I wanted to avoid having to get €60 leggings lol butttttt expensive may be my only option. Is lululemon or gym+coffee any good?? Or any other brands u can recommend?

Sweaty Betty Powers are the best, though they're expensive. I only ever buy them at 60% or more off! They're great for gym or everyday, though a bit warm for running in. I prefer their Zero Gravity for running.

If you don't want to spend SB money then Decathlon are the best you can get on a budget, in my experience.

Lots of people will recommend Goodmove/H&M/etc but at that price point you're much better off with Decathlon.

Sweaty Betty Power Leggings. They have a sale on at the moment. There's also ebay / Vinted. The quality is good so even 2nd hand, they hold their shape and stay up. Plus, they have a side pocket.

I have tried a lot of leggings and SB are the only ones that don't budge.

I have two or three pairs of M&S Goodmove leggings which have lasted ages and are still in good nick. They have a drawstring waist so no slipping, plus the thigh pocket and key pocket at the back. I think it’s a really good brand.

Actually, I like the M&S Good Move leggings. There are different styles, including yoga pants, but the exercise leggings have a pocket on each leg, a little zipped pocket on the waistband, and they also have a tie in the waistband, so I can absolutely be sure they aren't coming down!

I've got patterned, reflective and cropped ones, they are also often in the M&S outlet stores with a good % off.

I bought some next ones for £20 and very pleased with them, didn’t want to spend loads and I’ll buy more of them

I also buy sweaty Betty in the sale. Look at the Next sale now, I think it just started at the weekend.

Oh, and they also have a side pocket that keeps your phone held tight and a small
zip pocket at the back for your key.

Sweaty Betty power leggings are my favourite. ££ but last, don’t fall down, don’t go thin around the bum, fully opaque, just don’t budge at all. I have so many pairs although do try and wait for a sale if you buy them!
