Hi
What are your favourite leggings brands please? I am a size 8 with a slight frame (think small knees and ankles) and I am fed up with leggings that are too saggy at the knee, or too see-through. I wear leggings a lot so happy to invest in decent quality. Any recommendations welcome. Thanks.

Someone on here recommended the Sainsburys leggings for £10 (not the ones that come in packs of 2). I've had mine for a couple of years now and they are as good as new.

Thanks Chainie. I do have some Sainsbury's ones, but they are the two pack. They are baggy at the knee for me but I will try on a pair of the single ones as presumably the quality will be a bit better.

If you are anywhere near a Uniqlo, they have some thick jeans-like leggings (jeggings-esque, but not quite) that are £14 a pair and worth a look.

For proper leggings, Boden ones were recommended to me on here and lived up to the hype. Haven't worn them since post-pregnancy though, so a good few years now.

Mint Velvet's are good. £15, but I have several pairs and they wash well, don't go baggy, and crucially, don't go transparent when you bend over.

I was about to say mint velvet. I have bought them for my mum and sis too. Love them.

these are the best leggings I have ever bought.

They are lovely & thick, never go baggy & keep their colour well.
