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!"

Sometimes you just gotta shine, right? American Apparel decided to take the classic black leggings up a notch by making them shiny. This shimmery pair of leggings works just as well paired with a black sports bra or a going-out top, so the styling possibilities are nearly endless. One reviewer even said, "I throw these on at least four times a week." If black is a tad too subdued for you, they also come in blue or red, so go all out!

Pros: Extra high-waisted; Very stretchy material. 

Cons: Over $30; Only goes up to X-large. 

Customer Review: "These leggings were EXACTLY what I was looking for. It's hard to find (at least for me) leggings that have the right gloss effect to them without looking like leather and this is it."  

When leather pants seem like too much work, turn to faux leather leggings. The style is perfect for when you want to go out with your friends at night but still want to be comfy as hell. No one will be able to tell that this pair from Retro Gong isn't made from real leather! Instead, these leggings are made from nylon and spandex to create an extra soft and breathable fabric. They also feature an extra wide waistband for tummy control, so you won't have to worry about having that slice of cake for dessert.

Cons: Over $30. 

Customer Review: "Buy these! They are SO comfortable. I wear them all the time (so much I’ve already purchased a second pair). Seriously though, you can dress these up or wear them with a sweatshirt. I’ve even worked out in them!" 

From a sweat sesh at the gym to an outdoor workout in the sun, this legging, with breathable mesh, is a great choice. The mesh panels are not only super trendy, but they are an ideal pick for when temps start to rise. And if you're someone who really heats up during a workout, these leggings even come in a capri length for more breathability. The quick-dry, moisture-wicking style will keep you cool, while the high waist tummy control will allow you to feel supported. Over 4,000 Amazon shoppers gave this pair a five-star rating, with many users raving about the fun mesh style. 

Pros: Has pockets; Moisture-wicking fabric; Under $30; Available in different lengths; Comes in 16 colors; Holds up well in wash; Squat-proof. 

Cons: Reviewers say there are some disparities between colors.

Customer Review: "I have been using these leggings almost every week, for two years now. There’s absolutely no pilling and the color is still pretty vibrant. They have held their elasticity way better than other brands I’ve tried. They don’t show sweat stains and the remain pretty cool and breathable. These have continually been my favorite pair thus far!"

If the whole mesh-panel thing isn't your vibe but you still want to show a little skin at the gym or on your evening, why not try this pair from Redqenting that is covered in tiny slash marks? These leggings will keep you cool during a sweaty gym sesh, but will also cover you up a bit more than mesh panels. They also feature subtle contouring marks to give you an extra flattering shape, which may be one of the reasons why this pair has over 4,000 five-star reviews. 

Pros: Seamless material; Breathable; Under $30; Features contour shadowing for a flattering shape; High compression.

Cons: Lighter colors are not squat-proof; Only goes up to X-large.

Customer Review: "If these had pockets I would buy every color and multiples of each one. The comfort is awesome and they also hold things in and up! It accentuates the booty so if you have a good one just know it will look even better!"

These bottoms have the feel and fit of your favorite yoga pants, but are more suitable for layering under an oversize cardigan or flannel shirt. They're 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.

Pros: Buttery soft material; Stretchy enough for baby bumps; Comes in multi-packs. 

Cons: Pills with wear; Offers light compression.

Customer Review: "For the price of these, they are SO worth it. They’re not the best leggings I’ve ever had, but definitely for the price they are amazing! SO comfy. They’re not super thick, but don’t show any dimples either."

These everyday leggings are made from a heavy fabric to prevent any visible underwear lines and will keep you warm once the fall 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. 

Pros: Soft and stretchy material; Under $30. 

Cons: Mid-rise; Not long enough for those over 5'5".

Customer Review: "These are the most comfortable and flattering leggings. Not sheer, good support, love the fabric.
Highly recommend."

If you have an athletic build, you'll want these leggings. A consistent theme in reviews is that they're perfect for those with an athletic build or "booty." These leggings pass the "bend over" test, a.k.a. they're not see-through; they're suitable for winter (when that time comes around again); and they feature a nice little pocket for your phone. As one fan noted, the leggings were even "durable enough for my three year old to casually wipe his snotty nose on."

Pros: Has pockets; Comes in over 35 colors; Wide tummy-control waistband; Sizes range from X-small to 2X-large; Under $30.

Cons: Reviewers say there are some disparities between colors.

Customer Review: "These leggings are amazing, they are squat approved, their buttery soft and the fabric is perfect not too thin and not too thick..they also give a good hold if that's what you're looking for." 

According to its 19,000-plus reviews, there are a mix of pros and cons to these leggings. 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/fit seems to vary and there's debate over whether or not they're squat-proof. Based on the price and overall reviews, however, it's still worth trying—and if they're not completely squat-proof, at least they'll make for good lounge pants.

Pros: Hidden pocket in waistband; Under $30; Tummy-control wide waistband; Comes in over 35 colors; Sizes range from X-small to 3X-large.

Cons: Lighter colors not squat-proof; Sizing varies; Offers light compression.

Customer Review: "These leggings are perfect. I’ve had them for three years, the quality is very good. No tears and they still look new. They are high waisted but not excessively." 

Leggings may not be your first choice when temperatures start to drop, but rest assured that you still have options. These are just like the other CRZ YOGA leggings above, only these are lined in extra-cozy fleece. Available in a slew of colors, these fleece-lined leggings will keep you warm for chilly morning or evening workouts. The high-waisted style is super-soft and breathable, so you can continue your outdoor activities comfortably when the temperature starts to dip. As an added bonus, there's a hidden drawstring in the waistband so you'll never have to keep pulling them up. 

Pros: Fleeced-lined; Has pockets; Comes in 15 colors; Internal drawstring waistband. 

Cons: May be too long for those under 5'4".

Customer Review: "These are a great pair of leggings. They are thick and warm without adding a bunch of bulk. By looking at them, you wouldn't know they were fleece lined. Went on a windy walk this morning and I didn't feel anything through these leggings. I'll be buying a few more pairs."

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

Pros: Thick material; Has pockets; Comfortable, stretchy fabric; Sizes range from X-small to 3X-large.

Cons: Over $30; May be too long for those under 5'4".

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. With a blend of cotton, spandex, and polyester, these leggings will keep you comfortable but also hold their shape throughout every stage of pregnancy. The secret fit 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. 

Pros: Sizes range from X-small to 3X-large; Available in two lengths and multipacks; 

Cons: Some shades are see-through. 

Customer Review: "The maternity leggings are fantastic! They offer great support and a perfect fit for my growing belly. The soft and stretchy fabric is comfortable for all-day wear.

Runners know the struggle that is not having enough pockets, but with this pair of leggings, you'll never have that issue again. Think of these leggings as a pair of pants and belt all in one. In the zippered waistband you can securely hold your phone, keys, IDs, and headphones without any bouncing, plus you get two side pockets and another zippered pocket on the back to hold even more stuff. As for the fabric, reviewers say they are heavy enough to wear in cooler weather and offer just the right amount of compression to keep you supported. 

Pros: Has a ton of storage; Moisture-wicking fabric; Squat-proof; Mid-weight fabric great for cool weather. 

Cons: Over $50. 

Customer review: "The color is wonderful I have two pairs now. They are warm (went out in 29 degree weather yesterday and was perfectly comfortable!) and bright and you literally can't feel your phone/keys/etc in the pockets. Highly recommend. 

The look of denim, but the feel and comfort of leggings, perfect for those days 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 of cotton, polyester, and spandex), and they don't pinch or bind you in. 

Pros: High-waisted; Has pockets; Denim-like look; Comfortable, stretchy soft material. 

Cons: May be too long on those under 5'4".

Customer Review: "What's better than a comfortable pair of jeans? A pair of pants that look like jeans but feel like yoga pants with a spandex feel. I was really surprised because I figured I'd try them by just buying one pair. I loved them so much, I bought one more in the denim and 2 in black. Great purchase and a great price for wonderful comfort." 

First off, how gorgeous is this shade of emerald? Every one of the numerous color options are so shimmery and pretty, it would be hard to chose just one. Colorways aside, these leggings are the ideal pants for an intense workout. The waistband features a silicone print on the inside to ensure it stays up, no matter how sweaty things get. They're also made with the brand's HeatGear tech fabric, meaning they will keep you cool and dry while feeling lightweight. 

Pros: Waistband stays up; Sweat-wicking material; 4-way stretch; Comes in over 30 colors; Available in different lengths; Size ranges from X-Small to 3X-Large; Has pockets. 

Cons: Some color options have limited sizes available. 

Customer review: "Love these leggings. They stay put, not see through but breathable for working out, fit true to size, and top doesn’t roll. Very comfortable." 

Nearly every fashion girl from Hailey Bieber and Kaia Gerber to Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid are obsessed with Alo Yoga leggings and it's easy to understand the hype. Not only are they fashion-forward (especially this matte camo pair), but they hold up so well. The fabric is buttery soft and has a compressing, lifting effect so your legs will look better than ever. And while it does have medium compression, the fabric still feels lightweight and comfortable so you can easily wear these from yoga to drinks with the girls. 

Pros: Buttery soft fabric; Offers medium compression; Sculpting effect. 

Cons: Over $100; Sizes only go up to Large. 

Customer review: "Love the fit of these! They are a sturdy material and allow them to breathe. But they do keep my legs warm on the chilly mornings."
