    The higher end Champions from Target. The lower end ones are too thin.

    My UnderArmour ones are great. Enough compression to quell that thigh jiggle, cool enough with their fancy sweat-wicking fabric, and the material is thick enough to hide any sweat patches by the end of the workout. Not much more expensive than the crappy Victoria Sport ones I had been using before.

    I love my Under Armour leggings. I've tried Old Navy and they always fall down once I start actually exercising. I've tried Nike but half the time they don't fit my short frame and if they do they are see through when I bend over.

    Fabletics is my general go-to. Affordable and they hold shape and color well with lots of washings. I also like Vimmia leggings for yoga, great compression without being restrictive and alo goddess leggings (both on sale only). :smiley:

    Werkshop is a great local (SoCal) brand as is Root (NorCal) roottoriseofficial.com

    I love Under Armor tops, but their leggings just don’t seem to fit me right. My old Athleta ones have held up for YEARS, although I’ve heard their new super-soft yoga fabrics pill like crazy. Lululemon fits and moves beautifully, but I’ve had issues with some of their designs (no side pockets, no internal drawstring, using thread that pills on otherwise perfect fabric).

    Since I started losing weight I’ve been cycling through Victoria Sport ones until I have a consistent size again—some of those are better than others. I just ordered some Nikes and am ridiculously excited to try them out, and now I’m also bookmarking this thread. ;)

    Old Navy makes amazing compression leggings. Not see-through and hold you on for running. They feel super secure and are cute too!

    I love the Victoria Secret ones because they have a deep pocket on the side of your leg perfect for holding your phone. They are super supportive too!

    I'm the queen of trying different leggings. I hate compression leggings . I hate see through leggings. I give away more leggings than I keep because I'm so fussy about them.
    I'm still on my quest to find the perfect pair.

    I tried grrl leggings and hated them. See through and cheaply made.
    I wear Victoria secret leggings in the house but not to workout in. See through but comfy.
    I am currently wearing UA leggings for the gym.
    I hate athleta because they pill easily. Not see through though.
    I like Marika yoga pants but haven't tried their leggings.
    I have a few old Navy leggings that are decent. I don't like really tight compression clothes so it's hard for me to find something that isn't see through but isn't very tight and thick either.

    I’m currently all about Soybu because most styles have leg pockets large enough for my phone, they are comfy, and they aren’t see through. I also like Adidas, New Balance, North Face, and the thicker ones from Fila (the thinner ones aren’t totally opaque). Adidas has the most comfortable wide waistbands I’ve found if you have a thicker waist.

    Victoria Sport are my number one brand. They are nice and thick, hold everything in and stay put. Also squat proof. It's a tie for second...i have a couple of pairs of Nike that I really like and a great pair of really thick Under Armour ones. I also have UA ones that I don't like, so I'm careful with that brand. Runner up is a cheap brand, ODODOS on Amazon. They are so comfy and stay put. The only issue I noticed was that the black ones faded and became thin and see through after a few months. I have other colors from that brand and have no issues.

    I like https://curvesncombatboots.com and https://www.celestialbodiez.com/collections/joggers-1. They're practical with pockets for your phone, keys, ID, cash.

    I also like 2 Aussie fitness houses, only shipping takes a long time so ... I'm not going to list them.

    Whatever's on sale at Wal-Mart, then I patch them for years before I finally let them die a not-so-dignified death.

    I love the Danskin performance yoga capris. Never had any complaints about being "see-thru". The fit me and my budget. I'd rather spend my $$ on good shoes and cycling gear.

    For running- Nike and North Face leggings. For barre- Beyond Yoga or Alo.

    Danskin Now work well for me.

    I only have three and I tend to buy inexpensive because I’m cheap. My favorite is the champion brand from target. They were expensive though like $25. I also have a pair from amazon (ododos) and Wal-Mart (forget the brand) and they both suck. The amazon pair is ok but they’re too tight and I feel self conscious in them even though they are the size I typically wear. (Yes I know I should have returned them but I’m stupid. They seemed ok at first but the more I wore them I realized they were too tight lol) the Wal-Mart just don’t stay in place and are constantly coming down. I should have known. I have a workout top from old navy that I love and I hear their leggings are good but I haven’t tried them. I made a commitment to not buy any more clothes the rest of 2018 so the ones I have will have to do for now.

    I have the ododos from amazon and they’re fine but I found the sizing to be off. I ordered a L, I normally wear either a M or L and they are soooo tight. I didn’t return them because I’m dumb so now I’m stuck with them lol.

    Yes the sizing is way off!! I can wear the same pair that I was wearing 78 pounds ago haha (tight back then and sort of loose now). I wear a small or medium in most brands but a large in ODODOS.
