black leggings: done to death <eye roll>

I know I know, but there are no recent threads, and the quality / range in each of the shops changes so often. Requirements:
Non see through.
Non bobbling
Full length (but I am short of leg)
Cotton / lycra : FGS NO Viscose!
Narrow elasticated waist band: not a massive thick one.
Happy to buy on line, but needs to be free delivery and returns.
Budget: upto £30 for the right ones.

The Boden ones got sent back due to transparency and bobbling after 2 washes. The waist band on the M&S and Topshop ones is too thick / stiff. Sweaty Betty had some that were lovely, but the waist was too high, though I might get them for after my CS (see below).

Currently 27weeks pregnant, but I do not want maternity ones: I've managed in my normal ones in my normal size in both my previous pregnancies. But will need low waisted ish ones rather than high rise so I can push them below the bump.

I have the Uniqlo ones (I wanted a non-black pair) but they feel a bit pilled affter only a couple of wears though they look ok (and I don't have thigh rub)

Sainsburys £10 brilliant (but only in black in my local)

M&S are my favourite though (IIRC about £15)

I was going to say Asda too, have had mine ages and they have washed well. They were really cheap!
