Top 10 Black Leggings

DEFINING FEATURES
Wondering who makes the best leggings for cold weather? We’ve got an answer for you: ADay. ADay’s Layered Up Thermal Leggings are made from a breathable, sweat-wicking, insulating material that will keep your gams from getting too chilly—even if you’re in the middle of a snowball fight. 

THOUGHTS FROM THE TEAM
Due to the tummy control panel and compression, these are some of the most flattering leggings around. They also passed the squat test, and we were delighted to discover they have a pocket.

DEFINING FEATURES
Make room in your dresser because you’re going to want several pairs of Athleta’s Delancey Moto Tights (especially since they’re available in a minimalist grey in addition to the classic black). With subtle moto details down the leg and zip pockets on the back, these were made with the title of “best everyday leggings” in mind.

THOUGHTS FROM THE TEAM
We loved the design elements Athleta added to this style, and we also felt that the fabric was sufficiently thick and supportive. In fact, here’s what our team had to say about these: “Overall, these are a great legging option if you’re seeking a style that feels office- or travel-appropriate.” 

DEFINING FEATURES
The back seams create a polished and chic appearance, making these leggings perfect for the office or dressing up.

THOUGHTS FROM THE TEAM
Leggings can often feel restrictive and tight, hindering movement and causing discomfort. However, we assure you that this particular pair is nothing like those unappealing options that end up taking up space in your closet. Our team was pleasantly surprised by how soft and stretchy they are. 10/10 would recommend. 

DEFINING FEATURES
Zappos may not be the first site that comes to mind during your search for the best leggings, but the Hue Ultra Leggings are worth your consideration. With a wide waistband, seamless sides, and a stretchy fabric blend, they’re the ideal bottoms to throw on when you want a balance of comfort and style. 

THOUGHTS FROM THE TEAM
Heads-up: reviewers mention that these leggings tend to run a little long, and our team agreed that it’s best to size down if you’re between sizes. We also suggest wearing nude underwear with these, because we could just make out the shadow of a panty line on the backside.

DEFINING DETAILS
This pair of black leggings is made from stretchy jersey cotton, providing a comfortable skinny fit from the waist to the ankles and making them perfect for layering in the fall.

THOUGHTS FROM THE TEAM
We found these leggings to be incredibly comfortable and stylish. Surprisingly, they were only $15, which made them even more appealing. It's clear why they were a crowd favorite among our team

DEFINING DETAILS
Gap’s Basic Leggings have a mid-rise, elasticized waistband, and a form-fitting silhouette made from a soft jersey knit material. They’ve garnered nearly 1,000 5-star reviews, and they’re available in a charcoal color as well as sizes from XXS to 2XL.

THOUGHTS FROM THE TEAM
We’ll be honest—Gap wasn’t the first brand we thought of when wondering who makes the best leggings. But this pair was surprisingly supportive, not-see-through, and super comfortable, which is why they’ve earned our stamp of approval.

DEFINING DETAILS
Lululemon’s Align High-Rise Leggings feature the brand’s best-selling Nulu fabric, a super-soft, compressive material that’s designed to feel like a second skin. In fact, this fabric is so lightweight you might forget you’re wearing pants, but you’ll be pleasantly surprised when you remember that’s just how the world’s most flattering leggings feel. Lastly, the Align is one of the few legging styles from Lululemon that features the logo at the top center-back of the waistband, allowing you to hide the fact that you're wearing activewear in the office.

THOUGHTS FROM THE TEAM
Anytime leggings come in multiple length options, we’re thrilled. No one likes to trip over the hems of their pants (or experience a weird bunching situation). We’re also pleased to report that these are not see-through.

WHAT TO KNOW
Athleta is known for their buttery soft fabric blends, and the Salutation Stash Tights definitely deliver in that area. Designed for activities like yoga, these leggings have minimal seams and side stash pockets for a distraction-free practice.

THOUGHTS FROM THE TEAM
We did feel like these were the best black leggings for every day, all-day use. You can get away with wearing them in a more casual office setting as well as in the studio. They’re not see-through, and the fabric is soft and slightly compressive, so you can hit the gym with confidence while sporting (pun intended) these.

WHAT TO KNOW
We’re not surprised that Spanx is one of the brands with the best black leggings around, because they’ve been helping women feel confident in their clothing since they were founded back in 2000. Among the list of things to love about these leggings is their wide, tummy-shaping waistband and their lifting backside. And here’s a tip: The regular sizes have an inseam of 34,” so if you’re under 5’4,” you might want to order these in a petite length.

THOUGHTS FROM THE TEAM
Our staff members actually said “wow, you look amazing” to each person who put these on. They pass the squat test, and they also were the best at concealing a panty line. However, all of us had to go one size up from our usual, so keep that in mind if you plan on purchasing Spanx’s Faux Leather Leggings. 

DEFINING FEATURES
Vuori has only been around for nine years or so, but they’ve made quite a name for themselves in the athleisure world. For instance, their Daily Leggings are gym-approved, but you might find yourself gravitating towards them even on rest days because of their airbrushed, smooth finish and drawstring waistband. 

THOUGHTS FROM THE TEAM
Our team highly recommends these leggings to anyone looking for a versatile and comfortable option. The side pockets provide convenience for carrying essentials, while the thick waistband with drawstring ensures a secure and customized fit. The soft fabric adds a luxurious feel to these leggings, making them a go-to choice for any occasion. Additionally, the design is universally flattering, highlighting the natural curves of the body and providing a sleek and stylish look. Overall, these leggings are a must-have addition to any wardrobe.
