Can Sweaty Betty leggings hold thighs in?

Are they strong enough to make thighs look less saggy? Also which ones are not proper gym material and non shiny please?

They definitely hold thighs in. I can really see the difference when I'm wearing them as opposed to Sainsburys or M&S one's that look very similar in pattern/style but don't hold in as well....

I'm not sure what you mean by wanting not proper gym material?

Yep they do. Get the power leggings. Miraculous.

They are gym material as opposed to normal legging material
Try mint velvet ones if you want normal ones that hold you in and about £25 too!

I never wear leggings aside from SB ones for exercise and these occasionally for around the house !
I hate the gym leggings and normal clothes look , I think it looks weird .

I have many pairs of the 7/8 power leggings and yes, they hold everything in and look fabulous.

By not proper gym material I mean not that shiny look that some can have. I also have the Sainsburys ones which are good but would like something with a bit more compression to make legs look a bit thinner. I only wear them around the house but out in winter with a coat on lol.

Their power leggings are not shiny, they are matt, but they still very much look like gym leggings.....I'm not sure there's a way around that tbh. Just so you know, they all have their logo stamped on the back at the base of one leg, so its obvious they are really gym ones, not sure if that would bother you?

I don’t rate SB leggings at all. Lululemon is FAR better. Varley is good too. Are there stockists near to you? Or you could order a few styles online and return what doesn’t work, ofc.
