Of all the hero pieces you rely on, the best black leggings for women are the true MVPs. The infinitely versatile wardrobe essentials go with everything from cozy sweatshirts to structured blazers. And whether you’re wearing them with a breezy summer top or looking for cozy winter leggings, the staples look incredible year-round. So yes, you could always use another pair (or 10).
To no one’s surprise, black leggings remain an everyday-wear favorite among everyone from Jennifer Lopez to Gigi Hadid, because, after all, celebs are just like us—they love comfy clothing as much as we do, especially paired with classics like T-shirts and white sneakers. The only issue? There are too many black leggings at every price point to comb through, especially if you’re shopping online and can’t do a squat test for yourself.
Glamour staffers are passionate about the ones they never take off. Whether you prioritize material (buttery-soft and not see-through) or coverage (be it cropped, 7/8, or full-length), we have thoughts on exactly which pairs are worth your coin. (And yes, there are plenty of Amazon leggings to choose from.) From dreamy yoga pants to nostalgic flared leggings, these are the best black leggings we’ve worn, tested, and loved—and always keep nearby.
