What are the best leggings available?

Snag leggings are truly epic and the best leggings you will ever wear. They’re completely opaque and entirely squat-proof - you will NOT see your knickers through these. They’re made from a soft, thick sustainable fabric that hugs your body like a second skin without being tight. They’re comfortable enough for everyday wear while being supportive enough for all types of workouts - plus they’re moisture-wicking and breathable for ultimate comfort for any activity.

For the past year, we’ve been re-developing our leggings to make them better than ever while still being able to produce them in the same quality over and over again. We have sourced a new Ponte Roma fabric, refitted on every body shape (multiple times just to make sure) and created a new version of our epic leggings that are even better than the original for better fit, function and comfort.

Which black leggings are not see-through?

Though black leggings go with so many different outfits and styles, if they’re not good quality they can cause some knicker peek-a-boos that absolutely no one wants. There is nothing more embarrassing than see-through leggings, and that's part of the reason so many people have had such a love-hate relationship with leggings when it comes to fashion.

However, you no longer have to worry about any mortifying wardrobe malfunctions, as Snag leggings are super thick and completely opaque. They have been specifically designed to pass the squat test to make sure you can’t see through the fabric. Finally - we have leggings that aren't see through.

How can you tell good quality leggings?

Good quality leggings give you the best fit and the most comfortable wearing experience. Leggings should be snug to your body like a second skin, with four-way stretch to move with you as you go about your day. However, they shouldn’t be too tight - they shouldn't dig in or cut in at the waist or feel too restrictive.

Good quality leggings should also be made from a nice, thick fabric that is completely opaque. There’s nothing worse than seeing your knickers show through the back of your leggings as the material stretches - good leggings should be completely embarrassment-proof. When choosing a fabric you should be sure to pick something breathable, ideally with moisture-wicking and anti-piling properties to help them last wear after wear, keeping you comfortable all day long.

How do I know my leggings size?

Figuring out your size is easy - just take your measurements. Start by measuring around your waist, making sure to keep a tape measure flat all the way around. Then measure around the fullest part of your hips and bum. Taking these measurements will help you decide what size you are to ensure a perfect fit every time.

Compare your measurements to our size chart - remember Snag leggings are true to size so pick whichever size matches your measurements. They’re also super stretchy so there's plenty of give if you need it. If it looks like you’re between sizes and prefer a looser fit, we recommend you try the size up.

How can I style black leggings?

Black leggings are a versatile style piece you can wear with literally anything - they’re a true wardrobe hero. Transition from a busy day running errands to a cosy evening on the sofa and look great at the same time. Starting with the basics, an oversized t-shirt or a knit jumper is a timeless, comfy look that you will reach for every day. Hit the gym with your favourite active-wear top and a sports bra, or take a hike with a waterproof jacket on top.

If you’re looking for something a bit more elevated, leggings work great under skirts and dresses as a warmer, complete coverage alternative to tights. Wear a denim-coloured dress with black leggings for the perfect brunch outfit, or pair with your favourite LBD and statement jewellery for an look ready to take on the town. You can even hit the office by layering a shirt and colourful blazer for a work uniform you’ll actually want to wear.

Snag leggings truly are epic. More than just a piece of clothing, they’re an amazing investment that's comfortable, versatile and a go-to choice no matter your style. Anything goes with leggings, so grab your pair and discover for yourself - you won’t regret it!
