Good quality leggings

Hi all

I usually buy my leggings from m&s or Tesco and have noticed that they are a bit see through and would like a pair that you cant really see through.

Anyone have a good pair or have any ideas where i can get some good ones that obviously wont cost a lot?

Thanks! x

    I live in leggings lol
    Best ones, IMo
    asda £5 - they wash and wash. no bobbling nor are they see through
    Next £8 - wonderful!
    Primark £3 - support leggings (found in the undies section near support wear!) Sounds odd but they are brill. Quite tight initially but so comfy and dont loose shape,a nd best of all not see through. They do them in diff colours black, navy, and 2 others from memory. Do buy your 'upper size' ie they come in dual sizes so 8-12 12-14 16-18 20-22. I am a14-16 but find i need to buy the 16-18 as they are snug initially(meant to be that way)

    I quite often get the H&M ones and they last AGES. The topshop ones are really good and not at all see through but i think these are quite expensive!

    Next are my favourite. I have 3 pairs including some maternity ones and every single pair have been fab. Only £8 too which may be a couple of quid more than other places but not exactly loads. :T

    I'm adding a vote for H&M, really thick and don't loose their shape at all!

    another vote for H&M from me, they're pretty opaque and think they were about £7

    Another vote for H&m but the£7.99 ones not the £5.99 ones
  • I like H&M ones :)
    Primark ones bobbled very quickly, though I didn't try support leggings, just normal ones, I might do next time, worth a try at 3£ :)
