9 top-rated Amazon leggings that are worth the hype

90 Degree by Reflex offers the best overall option because they cover all the bases and their leggings are still very affordable. They have 46 color and pattern options. They have tummy control. They have pockets. And their 76% polyester / 24% spandex fabric is comfortable and perfect for working out or relaxing on the couch or anything in between.

Reviews say: “Always on the hunt for good leggings, and these do not disappoint. For reference, I’m 5’5″ 185lbs, and I purchased an XL. They fit exactly as they should- not too tight, just enough spandex to feel some light compression. Very comfortable. I’ve got shorter legs, so the inseam hits me just above/right at the ankle. The pockets are perfect for my phone, and the waistband has some elastic (not binding), so they DO NOT roll down. They’ve held up well so far, and are the leggings I reach for for my workouts. Really love these.” – calico_hippo

See-through is probably not the look you’re going for when choosing a new pair of leggings–but unfortunately sometimes it’s exactly what you get. Save yourself the worry with the quality leggings from ZUTY.  They’re made with lightweight 4-way stretch fabric that is conducive to squatting as well as yoga, cycling, running and any other workout you do at home or in the gym.

Reviews say: “So soft and comfy! Squat proof! Oh my gosh these are so soft!! LOVE them! I am 5’7” and the only draw back is that the crotch is a little low. If I pull them up, then they are just extra high waisted which is fine with me! 💯 Squat proof! They are a thicker material and don’t show a thing! I would wear these all day every day if I could. So so soft!” – Emily H

“Love love love! These are great quality! When out on the design doesn’t stretch out and they fit really flattering. Pockets are great. The waistband has a string built in for tightening if needed (however as is they fit just fine!) they are squat proof and my new favorite camo legging!” – Tara Marie

THE GYM PEOPLE constantly rank high with rave reviews when it comes to their leggings—and with their thick but breathable 88% polyamide / 12% spandex fabric combo that provides moisture wicking, compression, and support, it’s not hard to see why. Add in the comfortable high waist and side and inner pockets, and it’s clear they thought of everything. 

Reviews say: “Swear by these! They are so flattering and smoothing, and I wear them with everything. They fit the same every time I wear them, even as my weight fluctuates. They are so buttery soft, and have pockets that fit my phone entirely!!” – Amy

“Super comfortable. I’m not one to wear leggings or yoga pants out in public. But I put these on and wore them every where! They didn’t look too tight, they fit great all day long, and I never felt like I had just leggings on. The pockets are a bonus. I like to just carry my phone instead of a bag, and these pockets allowed my phone to fit just fine and I have a pretty big phone! Yesterday was a cold day and these yoga pants kept me warm.” – Luv2read

Made from 70% nylon and 30% spandex, the HeyNuts Essential 7/8 Legging have a look and feel that’s impressively close to the Lulu Aligns for a fraction of the price. The fabric is super soft with a matte-finish and isn’t see-through like some other less expensive brands. These leggings also offer adequate tummy control and compression and come in 28 colors and patterns, which means you really should get a couple pairs for variety.

Reviews say: “Perfect legging dupe. Love love love these leggings. They’re obviously not Lulu leggings but their style and material are so close to the real thing that nobody can tell the difference. I have been washing them the same way lululemon recommends you wash their leggings and they’ve been holding up great so far. Delicate wash on cold and air dry, I haven’t put them in the dryer at all. I think that even though they’re much cheaper, if you treat them with care there’s no reason they won’t last a long time too. They’re also the perfect length for my height, they fall right at my ankles.” – Gillian

Lots of brands claim to offer comfortable and effective tummy control, but ODODOS is actually great at it. Their waist band is extra high and wide, offering maximum coverage while you bend, stretch, and move throughout your day. Plus this company has endless fun and funky patterns to choose from—so you can pick your favorite style (or two!)

Reviews say: “Best black leggings. I think I have worn these exact leggings at LEAST 2 days a week for the past 4 YEARS. I bought them after I had my first baby to help with the post-partum pooch. They were so amazing that I think I only wore those pants for 3 straight months. The tummy control portion is good and I feel like the material is great at smoothing my shape. The deep pockets on each side are PERFECT for making quick runs to the store or going on a walk – phone on one side and keys on the other. I also try not to carry a purse when I can avoid it, and these pants definitely help me avoid it! They are not sheer and do not thin out after endless washes… I was super excited to buy these new ones after having my second! Highly recommend!” – E. Campbell

The SATINA legging has almost 90,000 reviews if that tells you anything. Clearly people have thoughts about these pants, and they want the world to know. Choose between full length or capri and any of the 25 color options when you order. (And at this price, you might want to grab more than one pair!) Known to be buttery soft, these are likely to be your fave pair of leggings—for casual or dressing up—just like the rest of the internet.

Reviews say: “OH. MY. GOSH. Not only are these leggings by far the softest, most comfortable piece of clothing to ever grace my body, but they fit my midsection PERFECTLY without digging in and giving me a’muffin top’… The leggings also don’t stretch out during the day. After washing them a few times they’re STILL JUST AS SOFT AND COMFORTABLE! If I could live the rest of my life wearing nothing but these leggings I would absolutely do so. I have now purchased a total of 5 pairs and will keep coming back for more. The colors are awesome and look almost exactly as advertised (the way the color of anything looks on a phone will always differ slightly from the actual product due to screen settings and whatnot). Not only do I continue to rub my legs to feel the softness, I also stick my leg out to my friends and make them rub the leggings to show off how amazing these are. If I could give these leggings 10 stars, no make that 100 stars, I totally would. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU Satina for an absolutely amazing product!!! Don’t ever change a SINGLE SOLITARY THING about how these are made!!!!” – Julia

If you want to wear leggings that make you feel like you’re not wearing leggings, give CRZ YOGA leggings a try. This pair offers a slight compression but is also meant to be restriction-free so you can focus on your workout, not how tight or loose your pants are. Made from 71% polyamide, 29% spandex, the CRZ YOGA pant also has a hidden inner pocket for storage and double waistseam for extra support. 

Reviews say: “The perfect leggings. I very rarely take the time to review a product, however, I am so pleased with these leggings that I felt I had to review them.
These leggings are incredibly soft and comfortable, and they do not restrict your movement. The size comes up well, I am a 12-14 and bought the size M(12) and these fit perfectly. I was unsure what to expect from these leggings, as for someone who works out 4-5 times per week, I have worked through a lot of leggings (Nike, Adidas, Gymshark). This time, I couldn’t find anything from these brands that I liked, and decided to try the CRZ Yoga leggings as an Amazon suggestion, and I am so glad that I did. These leggings are now by far my favourite, and I will be purchasing more.” – Sarah

Sometimes you just want to splurge and we get it. But when you do, you want to be sure it’s worth it. Hands down, Alo makes some of the best-wearing leggings out there. (With lots of research, we can’t say the same for their tops, but you can’t win ’em all, right?) The fit is fantastic, the fabric is smoothing and they always look brand new. We have pairs that have been washed probably close to 100 times and they’re still in tip top shape. And while Amazon doesn’t have a ton available at any given time, they’re often on sale which makes a big difference!

Reviews say: “Fashionable and chic with slimming fit. Alo Yoga is the only brand I’ve tried that matches Lululemon in both price and quality, although Alo is definitely more gym-to-street friendly. These leggings are wicked stylish. The quality of the materials used in this is high, as is the construction; the fabric is a thickish, cotton-like knit that is compressive, flattering, with a hefty hand feel. They feel lush in the hand, skin, and body. I have no doubts that the moto panels will ever unravel.” – Lucia Yvresse

For a look that’s more polished and super versatile, we’re big fans of the jogger style. They can take you everywhere from pilates class to brunch and they’re unbeatable for travel. And while you could pay four times as much for brand names, this pair from The Gym People are literally every bit as good. The fit is relaxed without being too baggy and they wash like a total dream. One year later, my teen’s pair still look brand new.

Reviewers say: “I couldn’t be happier with these. They are the perfect jogger pants. Incredibly soft and stretchy. They remind me of the texture of my Figs scrubs, but softer. They aren’t too baggy and not too tight. They’re the perfect in between if you’re tired of wearing tight leggings or too baggy of sweatpants all the time. I’ve been looking for that perfect in between jogger, and these are it! You can make them look good enough to wear out of the house without looking like a hot mess. Yet, comfy enough to lounge in all day. Definitely ordering more. I never write reviews for anything ever, but loved these so much, felt the need to share since sometimes Amazon clothes can be hit or miss.” –Ashley
