Any recommendations for patterned (sports) leggings for short people?

I have loads of gym clothes but have started doing aerial hoop and silks. I only have one pair of leggings that are suitable.

I need something that comes in a 14, suitable for short people and doesn't have any zips, etc. It would be a bonus if i didn't need to wear knickers under them cos they rub Blush

I keep seeing online places advertised on Facebook but would prefer to get some recommendations. Would prefer something a bit more patterned/bright and don't want to spend huge amounts as I'm trying to lose some weight.

I'm 5ft 2" and have a pair of patterned leggings from Gap, they fit fine in length and were cheap in the sales too. No zips, a waist string tie.

I really like Tikiboo. They are reasonably priced, thick, stay up when squatting, don’t go see through and are comfy. The cords sometimes come out in the wash but it’s not the end of the world. I tend to buy when they have a coupon code. (DH tells me they look like Mr Motivator leggings but I don’t care!)

Bam clothing bamboo ¾ leggings are fantastic! Really thick and comfortable. I'm under 5' and they come to just above my ankle.

I'm 5'3 and I absolutely love the thick Gap leggings. They come to mid calf, such you right in and are extremely comfortable. Well worth the price.

I would also recommend gap! I got a stripey pair in store last weekend and they’re fab. Although I’m a lot taller than you at 5’8ish, they are a 7/8 style so a bit cropped on me.

Thanks.

I'm going to try to get to gap and try some on.
