Heavily pregnant and wanting to live in leggings and jumpers now the cold spell is here but can I find leggings that don’t show my pants in their entirety?! Nope 👎 any suggestions please of where to buy some non see through leggings? In all varieties except workout leggings! Faux leather for autumn yes please, everyday leggings for school run yes please, thick leggings I can dress up yes please. Don’t need to be maternity leggings as want some can wear this winter after give birth too!

Snag leggings hands down! Comfy and cosy, properly thick so they don’t show your pants, AND… pockets. They come in about sizes 4-24 and a range of colours. They were more than I’d usually spend, but definitely worth it.

Those who have the Sainsbury's leggings, what is the length like?

@Baxdream I'm 5'7" and they sit just above my ankle bone. I could do with them being a bit longer but for standard length leggings they're pretty good

They do a long-length version available on the website too.
I'm 5'7 & the standard are just above my ankle & the long sit on the top of my foot.

Can anyone recommend good ones for hiking please ? Substantial ones. Thank you

Wow thanks so much everyone for the suggestions! Got some on order now. Someone mentioned Stradivarius leggings to me today as well, has anyone tried them? Wasn’t sure which to try when looked online at them

H&M maternity ones

I love Rainbows and Sprinkles leggings. So comfy and never slip or roll down. Plus some great designs!

Lulu lemon align. I just treated myself to two black pairs and even dh noticed how nice they are compared to my old holy Tu ones . Pricey at £88 a pop but if you live in them like me then they are more than worth it.

I second Snag leggings with @MrsRinaDecker

i got the chub rub shorts for this summer - I’m an 18 and for the first year I’ve been merrily wearing dresses without issues.

then I tried the leggings for the gym / yoga / walking / life.

pockets. Thick material. They are heaven.
