Im a size 16 so need some support, want to actually use them for the gym so something not see through would be great too.
Im on a budget so ideally would like to get 2 pairs for less than £50

Tk maxx always do reasonable priced good quality leggings and they are usually £16-20 a pair. I bought a thick winter pair from there years ago and they have lasted multiple winters and machine washing.

i also like gymshark and they wear very well, but you’re unlikely to get 2 pairs for £50 unless you get lucky in a sale.

Thank you, never thought of trying tkmaxx

I’ve just tried gym shark and they are great. High waisted, thick and comfy. They have a sale section so I just got two pairs for around £35. I’m a 16-18 and got the XL and they fit perfectly

I’ve tried soooo many! And I have to say that my favourite ones are ones I’ve got from Next. My protein have some good ones too and always have big discounts on the go. Snag have started doing leggings too but never tried them-they look nice though.

I have a couple of great pairs from M&S. I also stumbled across the gym stuff in Matalan last week and was surprised at how good quality it seemed for the price.

Aurique from Amazon, had a couple of pair now and they're good. Not as durable in the crucial inner thigh zone as Sweaty Betty but nice supportive fabrics.

I also seem to be doing this.

Queenie Ke on Amazon. High lycra content, nice styles, thick/squatproof and very, very comfortable and supportive. L would probably fit you well. Price from £17-25 depending upon which ones you like.

M&S Go move. I have about 8 pairs, zip pocket at the back, phone pocket on the leg and they don’t move…like a second skin

Any of the OYSHO leggings, absolutely amazing quality!

TheSausageKingofChicago · 24/10/2022 21:14

I got some Everlast ones from Sports Direct which are nice and thick, completely squat proof and hold me on. I’m a size 18, so need sturdy gym clothes!

Monsterjam · 24/10/2022 21:24

Oh… and like others M&S go move. I prob wear these the most
