Available in a slew of colors, these fleece-lined leggings will keep you warm for chilly morning or evening workouts.

From a sweat sesh at the gym to an outdoor workout in the sun, this pair of leggings, made with mesh inserts, is a great choice. The mesh panels are not only super trendy but also ideal for when temps start to rise. And if you tend to heat up during a workout, these leggings even come in a capri length for more breathability.

These have continually been my favorite pair thus far!"

Just like TikTok blew up the butt-lifting leggings, the platform can also be credited with making the V-cross waistband a huge trend in leggings. The waistband on these leggings has a cross effect, which instantly makes your waist look snatched. Plus, your butt will look plump, as one reviewer called these leggings a "push-up bra for the booty." The matching cross hemline on the ankles is a cute detail, too.

According to over 19,000 reviews, these leggings have a mix of pros and cons. First, the pros: they're affordable (prices range from $18 and up depending on the color you choose), comfortable, and stretchy. Also, fitness bloggers like Whitney Simmons have raved about them. Cons: the sizing and fit seem to vary, and there's debate over whether or not they're squat-proof. However, based on the price and overall reviews, it's still worth trying—and if they're not completely squat-proof, at least they'll make for good lounge pants.

These everyday leggings are made from a heavy fabric to prevent any visible underwear lines and will keep you warm once the winter weather arrives. The quality of the leggings might vary from pair to pair, as some found the color to fade after a few washes while others reported that it's the best pair of leggings they've found so far. At $17, they're worth a shot if you're in need of a pair of leggings fast.

Lightweight leggings should be your go-to when it's warm out (or if you get hot during workouts). These "essential" leggings from HeyNuts will keep you cool and supported thanks to a fabric made from nylon and spandex. The waistband is extra high (hits above the belly button!), and the leggings come in over 30 different colors and patterns, meaning there's a pair to suit everyone's personal style.

TikTok loves these leggings, which reviewers say have magical butt-lifting powers. They have over 50,000 five-star reviews, which all seem to confirm their lifting capabilities. The instant butt lift all comes from the leggings' ruched spandex material that provides a tightening and plumping effect. If you're still skeptical of these leggings, one reviewer wrote, "Even if you're a total flat pancake, these leggings will give you a nice little plump-up!" 

Materials: 100 percent polyester

Size Range: Sizes XS - 5XL

What We Love: Lifting effect; large size range; comes in over 20 colors; offered in varying lengths; some versions have pockets.

Customer Review: "These pants not only hide cellulite and imperfections, they make your bottom half look perfect to your partner. Ordered another pair, spouse wants me to order every color."

These bottoms have the feel and fit of your favorite yoga pants but are more suitable for layering under an oversized cardigan or flannel shirt. They are made from a polyester-blend fabric and are said to "gently caress your lower half like a second skin." Because they're not super thick, you can even layer these under looser-fitting sweats for winter. For mamas-to-be, these leggings will also work for your bump, as they're amazingly stretchy and soft.

Sometimes we can't be bothered to put on real pants and when that's the case, these Hue leggings come to the rescue. These ponte cropped leggings have a comfortable wider waistband and functional pockets. The V-cut at the ankle brings a stylish touch to the wardrobe essential. Match the leggings with a blazer for the office and a chunky sweater from Amazon for brunch with friends.

For all of the mommas-to-be out there, a comfy, supportive pair of leggings is a wardrobe staple, and this pair is just that. Made from a blend of cotton, spandex, and polyester, these leggings will keep you comfortable but also hold their shape throughout every stage of pregnancy. The concealed belly band also grows with you and can be folded over or under your baby bump. Reviewers say these can be worn for any occasion, so we wouldn't blame you if you took advantage of the multipack option.

These have the look of denim but the feel of your comfiest leggings, so they're perfect for those days when you're dreading putting on a real pair of pants. With a flattering high waist and real back pockets, you get the look of authentic denim, but with the comfort of leggings. Reviewers noted that the material is thinner than jeans, which makes sense because they're not denim (the leggings are made from cotton, polyester, and spandex).

Great purchase and a great price for wonderful comfort." 

The fact that you can get Girlfriend Collective leggings on Amazon is huge. If you're not familiar, Girlfriend is a brand with sustainability at the forefront of their ethos, prioritizing ethical manufacturing, eco-friendly materials, and transparency. The brand's best-selling leggings are compressive, have a large size range, come in must-have shades, but they also saved 25 water bottles from landfills, reduced 3.11 gallons of water, and prevented 18.61 pounds of CO2 emissions.

Materials: Recycled plastic

Size Range: Sizes XXS - 6XL Plus

Cons: Expensive.

Customer review: "I love these leggings! I have tried a ton of brands and I love that these are flattering, feel tight and secure, and do NOT move in a workout. The side pockets are also a huge bonus for walks and hikes. Love these and will definitely be trying more styles from Girlfriend Collective in the future!"

Finding a pair of leggings that actually fits when you're tall is easier said than done. This pair were specifically designed for those 5'5" and above so you'll never be bothered by short hemlines again. You can wear these either bunch up around the ankle or over the heel, which I especially love for barefoot workouts like pilates and yoga. A comfy wide waistband and pockets add major points too.

Materials: 87 percent nylon, 13 percent spandex

Size Range: Sizes XS - XXL

What We Love: Great for tall figures; can be worn two ways; has pockets; sweat-wicking; squat-proof.

What We Don't: Limited color choices.

Customer review: "These are amazing! As a women over 6’ it is very dry hard to find leggings that don’t fit like capris. These are very long to the point where they bunch up at my ankle which I like. The material is also thick, durable and soft which makes them great for working out or just lounging around."

For leggings that focus on shaping rather than working out, SHAPERMINT is the way to go. With a heavy, compressive knit, these leggings were made to lift and tuck in all the right places. The waistband hits extra high, too, for a smoothing effect, and thanks to an anti-slip band, you won't have to worry about it falling down. Keep in mind that these do run small, so size up if you want a looser fit.

Materials: 96 percent polyamide, 4 percent elastane

Size Range: Sizes S - 4XL

What We Love: Wide tummy-control waistband; squat-proof; has a non-slip waistband.

What We Don't: Runs small.

Customer review: "It’s a bit of a workout to get these on at first, but once they are on, you feel incredible! They have a non-slip band at the top so they don’t slide down. These are not see through at all and the compression it gives makes me feel much more confident as a plus size woman with huge legs."

If celebrities love these leggings, then I'm sure you will too. Jennifer Lopez, Olivia Culpo, and Chrissy Teigen are all fans of the brand, and I'm sure it has to do with their high-quality feel and fun fabrics. These leggings are a best-seller and feature a lightweight yet opaque and compressive fabric and a double-layer waistband. These will be the leggings you reach for whenever you're heading to a spin class, yoga session, or long walk.

Materials: 87 percent polyester, 13 percent elastane

Size Range: Sizes XXS - 4XL

What We Love: Offered in over 30 colors; lightweight; squat-proof; large size range; buttery soft fabric; breathable; moisture-wicking.

Customer review: "Comfortable and not too thin. Very complementary and luxurious material. The quality of these leggings is 2nd to none."

When a pair of leggings has approval from over 26,000 happy customers, you know they're good. Not only that, but they've made just about every other "best Amazon leggings" list on the web. It's likely due to their supportive, compressive (but still comfortable!) material that's perfect for working out. Or maybe it's because of their ultra-high-rise fit, tons of cute colorways, or deep pockets for all of your essentials. In any case, these leggings are bound to serve you well no matter how you wear them.

Materials: 88 percent polyamide, 12 percent spandex

Size Range: Sizes XXS - 4XL

What We Love: Has pockets; comes in different lengths; comes in over 25 colors; tummy-control waistband; moisture-wicking; quick-drying
