Faux Leather Leggings

I ordered and tried 5 similar leather leggings: Halogen Faux Leather Leggings, Trouvé High Waist Faux Leather Leggings, Nordstrom Faux Leather Leggings, Hue Leatherette Leggings, & SPANX Faux Leather Leggings. The Halogen leggings were the winner! Well-made/good material, long enough (I'm 5'9"), comfortably high waist (didn't hit at a weird place to create bulges), and didn't have weird gaping fabric at the crotch or knees (as some of the others did). I'd heard great things about the Spanx version, but I found that they run very small - couldn't even get them past my hips! Trouvé and Nordstrom versions were decent, but didn't quite hit all the high points of the Halogen pair mentioned above. Hue leggings were the cheapest; low price and low quality.

The left in the picture are Spanx and the right ones are Commando. Spanx are comfortable- I could even lift and stretch in these! Breathable as well! I bought both brands because I felt each had their own pros. Spanx give great shape and DO NOT camel toe! No wrinkling/ scrunching of that area! They do have more silvery sheen to them, and a waistband (which give a more casual look compared to the Commando ones). I am 5’2 3/4” and 115 slim/toned build. I normally wear size 2 / 26 pants. I bought a size S. These are definitely a keeper and a staple! (Commando info is on the item page)

Faux leather look wore off the first time I wore them and it only got worse. I’ve worn them a handful of times since receiving them at the end of August 2020. Pictures (Front and back) are currently what they look like now. Not sure if I just received a bad pair since I see influencers rave about them almost daily...I definitely fell into the hype and regret this pricey purchase.

I wear large in every brand, but with spanx I sized down to medium. They look good, but after a few washes the “leather” coat fades...so I only buy them during sales.

Purchased both the large and XL because I wasn't sure which would fit and wanted to get at anniversary pricing. I wear a 12. The large, which is size 10-12, was too tight. The XL, which is 14-16, fit perfect. My stomach is were I am a full 12. I recommend to size up if you have a belly as well. Those with flat stomachs can follow sizing chart. The material is high quality and it holds you in all the right spots. These look great dressed up with booties or heels and a long tunic.

I hate pants. Like all pants with zippers and buttons. I wanted something that I could wear to an event that needs something slightly fancier than plain leggings. I am 5’4” and around 100lbs, I bought XS. These are some of the most comfortable leggings I own, and I have pairs that cost almost twice as much as these. I love that they’re supportive around the waist but are seamless and don’t dig in! They make your backside looks incredible and fit like a glove! The inside is almost like velour, very soft, yet the hug around your legs keeps you warm without overheating. The only downside is that these are so see-through. You don’t even have to bend over for them to be nearly transparent, just lift your leg up. I’ll have to find some way to work around it because they’re so cute and comfortable. Make sure you do the bend test before you go out!

I decided to splurge and buy Spanx faux leather leggings last year for my birthday. I was between sizes when I bought them, so I sized up. I liked them, but we have cold winters, so I didn’t wear them often because they didn’t keep my legs very warm. I always washed according to the instructions. I wore them occasionally last winter and this fall (20-30 times total), then noticed the top elastic band was becoming misshapen and causing them to roll every time I sit or bend over. I have cheap $20 leggings from Target that are two years old, worn more frequently, and they have held their shape just fine! I contacted Spanx about the issue, and they said the only thing they can do is offer 20% off a full-priced item. That’s worse than their sale prices!!! I’m very disappointed in the quality...especially since they are quite an investment! And Spanx not standing behind their products is also disappointing. If you want quality that will last and good customer service, I’d look elsewhere!

They run way to small i am usually a L if they have XXL probably I order it i am goin to try the Xl the quality its not thick it has a texture out side it not like letter its more like vinyl but it does hug ur curves i am size 10

I bought two pairs because I love the fit and look. After wearing it for several months, I’m noticing the top faux texture is wearing off. See my knees in the photo. Regret my decision to purchase and I don’t recommend. Also I ordered a medium, am 115 lb and 5’3”.

Just in case one person needs to say it: these are perfection! 5’7.5” 130lbs, pear shaped and ordered a small. Paired mine with a black suede bootie and love the contrast between materials!

Seriously. I will never buy another pair or real or faux leather leggings. These make your legs look great, suck in any lower belly fat, and hold your booty up! I'm 5'4, 135 pounds, and am a size 27 in jeans. I ordered a medium in these and they are great. I think if I would have gotten a small, the pants would be a little too tight for sitting at work all day. They're a little long on me (but I'm short), but because they're so fitted they look fine scrunched up on the bottom.

Seem like a fancy version of leggings you may wear to the gym. I would never wear fancy leggings to the gym ..and I would never wear these out for an evening. Definitely returning. I reviewed these before I purchased and was surprised nobody mentioned the awkward seam up the leg. I could not stop looking at it.
