Sporty leggings which don't show every single curve

I have bought some lycra leggings for when I want to appear 'sporty'. Unfortunately they're completely unforgiving and I look as if I have a wedgie, forcing me to wear a jumper tied around my waist and thus ruining said 'sporty' look.

And recommendations for lycra leggings which don't make me look indecent?

Compression is your friend but they don't come cheap ! 2xu, under armour.
Also find the Nike pro ones are good - and not as eye watering in terms of the $

Just looking at the Nike Pro ones. How do they size up? I'm a 12/14 so not sure whether to order a medium or large (first world problem)

I've got some Victoria's Secret leggings. I always get the high waist ones as they flatten my slightly wobbly belly without feeling too tight.

I got medium ones and they fit my 39" hips perfectly with plenty of give

Go to tk maxx , they have loads and a few brands that are properly thick and not see through when you bend over . Rbx is one brand .. I'll see if I can find others .

I bought a cheap set for a tenner on eBay. Brand new comes with the matching vest and it's soooooooo comfy and doesn't show lumps and bumps and in the same size as you. I will see if I can get a pic x

I wear Under Armour compression leggings for running. They're great and very flattering and they have a wider waistband than normal.

Nike or Sweaty Betty. Budget version is the Gap ones which are surprisingly good and with voucher codes cheap.

wizzywig · 06/06/2018 13:02

Those rbx ones look nice. Thanks pigpog

pigpoglet · 06/06/2018 13:16

@wizzywig they are lovely and thick and wash really well . They also have a thick panel which holds in the extra skin I have from dc 🙄.. they always have loads in store near me .
