Whether for actually working out or weekend errands, leggings have been considered a wardrobe essential for quite some time now. That said, I think we can all agree that they're currently getting more use than ever. I know I wear leggings more than I'd like to admit these days, whether it's for my morning yoga, to work from home, for quick walks around my neighborhood, or just to hang out, and it's made me realize that my collection could definitely use a little sprucing up.
Naturally, my next move was to turn to Amazon. After all, I don't always have time to shop in stores to get a sense of what pieces are really like up close, and sleuthing through Amazon's review section is the next best thing. So sleuth I did, all so I could bring you (and me) the best leggings the site has to offer based on what real customers had to say. From cropped styles to longer cuts to countless pairs with pockets—a feature I'm learning is a game changer—just keep scrolling to shop all 15 of the highly reviewed and loved leggings that made the cut, according to WWW editors and Amazon shoppers.

1. Baleaf Fleece Lined Leggings
Best Amazon Leggings for Winter
Size range: XS–3XL
Inseam: 27"
Materials: 92% Polyester, 8% Spandex
Pros: Soft, stretchy, keeps shape, not see-through
Cons: Can get ruined after frequent washes
Compelling review: "These leggings are like butter. I had a similar pair from an MLM that I was hoping to match, and might I say that these are even softer, and better quality! The stitching is sturdy, the length is good for me (I'm 5'7 and they go right down to my heel almost, so keep that in mind if you're on the shorter side), and they are thick enough that they're not see-through."
2. Nike Pro 365 Tights Leggings
Best Amazon Leggings for Working Out
Size range: XS–XXL
Materials: 83% Polyester, 17% Spandex
Pros: Fit well, breathable, sweat-wicking

Best Lightweight Amazon Leggings
Size range: XXS–XL
Inseam: 25"
Materials: 71% Polyamide, 29% Spandex
Pros: Restriction-free, buttery-soft fabric, lightweight
Cons: Shoppers note you'll find yourself pulling up your pants frequently
Compelling review: "I have searched high and low for a so-called 'Lulu dupe' and these are the closest thing I have found. And let me tell you, I am picky. Great quality and fit! The fabric is buttery soft (although more silky than the Lulu Align Pant, but I personally love it), and they have great compression but still super lightweight."

Inseam: 25"
Materials: 51% Nylon, 38% Recycled Polyester, 11% Lycra
Pros: Super soft, comfortable waistband

Pros: Comfortable, true to fit, flattering
Cons: Not for people who want a thick waistband or high-rise fit

Compelling review: "I love these leggings. They don't pinch my waist, and they don't sag or ride up my legs. The fabric is warm and being 50% cotton feels comfortable. The best thing is that it gathers zero lint! I can get out of bed and go out to the shops wearing the same pair of leggings with a tunic top. I hope these leggings will forever be available."
8. Syrinx High Waisted Leggings
Best Amazon Leggings for Fall
Size range: S–XXL
Materials: 92% Polyester, 8% Spandex
Pros: Stays in place, tummy control, comfortable
Cons: Very thin, see-through
Compelling review: "These leggings are by far my favorite! They fit very well. They don’t slip down like some others I own. They also stretch a lot so they are very comfortable and still cover very well. They are not thick so definitely not for cold weather but perfect for fall/spring. The material is very soft… I am super happy with these and for the price, they are even better! Will definitely be ordering more colors!

The material feels sturdy and thick. The pockets are a plus because I like to just carry my essentials with me. Highly recommend."
12. C9 Champion High Waist Legging
Best High Waist Leggings on Amazon

Cons: Fit more mid-rise than high-waist, run small
Compelling review: "I absolutely love these leggings! They are my favorite ever. I did size up one as I wear them mostly for leisure and occasional hiking. I'm not going for compression, I'm going for comfort. They have just enough form to not bag or stretch out but they hold everything in place. They make my fanny look great. I fully intend to buy them in more colors."
