Decent leggings?

Boring thread I know 😂 but can anyone recommend any decent leggings that are well made and affordable? I have tried so many different brands but am constantly getting ripped stitching in the upper thighs Blush

What sort of leggings?
Sweaty Betty ones are fab and usually has a sale.

I'm liking the M&S thermal leggings - I'm wearing them under joggers for work, but they're nice enough to wear just with something long.

I second sweaty Betty! The black power leggings are a staple. Not cheap but you also won't need to replace them. I have 2 pairs which are approx 2years & 18 months old and till look good as new (I wear them all the time as well)

M&S or landsend (sale). LIDL ones have also been good.

Gymshark are really good if you want gym/sporty leggings.

For everyday wear I just bought a great pair from River Island. They are thick, warm, high waisted and have that stitching detail down the middle which I like as it makes them less 'legginggy'.

White Stuff do a ponte (really thick) legging called Jodie. They're smart, super soft, wash incredibly well and last forever but do go down a size, they're very generous. I've got about 10 pairs and wear daily to work with knee length boots and a smart top.

As someone suggested up thread, Sweaty Betty. I have the 7/8 length Power leggings. They stop put, don't go baggy, no saggy crotch and no seam on the gusset. They are not cheap but they seemingly last forever; I think cheaper ones apart from being less comfy are false economy.

On sweaty Betty as well... I have a few pairs of the shorts version of the power leggings and one pair went bubbley between the thighs after a couple of months. Replaced them without any question and sent me out a new pair straight away before I even had to return the faulty shorts. Can't beat their customer service

Thanks all! Was just looking for everyday leggings, not sporty ones. Will take a look at Sweaty Betty, don't mind paying a bit more if it means I don't have to constantly replace them 😂

I picked up the most fabulous SB ones for 32 quid in the sale. I have a lot of high-end expensive leggings and these are by far the most flattering and excellent quality.

For everyday wear, I have some pairs from bambooclothing.co.uk which are so comfy and soft and amazing quality - not cheapest but they have good sales and discounts
