Including opaque leggings that won't tell the world, "HELLO! I'M WEARING BRIGHT PINK UNDERWEAR TODAY!"
Promising review: "I never take the time to write reviews and I order off of Amazon all the time. I am a Lululemon fanatic and love their Align pants, but can't afford or rationalize buying tons of them. These remind me of the Align pant so much! They are cut almost identical, but the fabric is a little stiffer. But this isn't a bad thing; the Align pant is almost too buttery soft, and it pills and gets caught on everything. These have light compression, give a nice booty lift, and are not see-through...even when squatting. I love love love these and am going to order several more! I actually kind of want to cry thinking about how much money I wasted on leggings in the past when these are an excellent substitute for a fraction of the cost. If you're a Lulu lover, you should really give these a chance!" —Ariel Parker
Price: $15.98+ (available in sizes XS-XXL and in 44 colors)
AKA they aren't see-through.
Promising review: "STOP. WHAT. YOU'RE. DOING. AND. BUY. THESE. LEGGINGS. Seriously though, these are the most comfortable leggings I have ever owned. I have three so far, and am definitely going to buy more! They are not see-through, sit high at the waist, and they stay put!" —Laura Z.
Price: $16.99 (available in sizes XS-XL and in six colors)
Promising review: "These are super cute, comfortable, and stretchy. My daughter is a gymnast and loves these leggings — she wears them to practice and can easily complete her skills while wearing them. I washed them, let them air dry, and they still look great." —Mrs. ChaCha

And a 4.4 out of 5 star rating.
Promising review: "This leggings are AMAZING! I am a die hard Zella leggings fan, but I really wanted to find an alternative that wasn't $50+. These leggings are WAY better and less expensive. I've done two really intense Crossfit workouts in these since I got them and they stayed put: no sliding down while running, jumping, or lifting weights, which means no more needing to stop and pull my pants up! They're a life saver! Plus, the material is thick, comfortable, and not see-through." —Lara K.
Price: $9.99+ (available in sizes XS-XL and in 33 colors)
Or just wear 'em on the spaceship. Up to you.

Promising review: "I've had these for four months now and I love them. I've typically worn them between three to five times a week and, as far as I can tell, they haven't faded and there's no fabric pilling. Seriously, buy a pair (just remember to go up a size). It's a killer deal! I'm about to order two or three more pairs right now." —Rachel

But seriously, you can dress these up or down.
Promising review: "These pants are so cute! I love the stretchy material, and the cute ruffles at the hems make it look different. They are a bit high-waisted, which I love, and they're opaque enough so you're sure your underwear won't peek through. You can easily just slip these on, and you'll be good to go! Plus, they're very comfortable and fit true to size." —Corinth

Psst, these run slightly small so be sure to order up a size!
Promising review: "These are AWESOME! I was so excited by how well they fit and how cool they look! They slip on like a glove, and stretch in all the right places.

Promising review: "I got these as an impulse buy, and it was the best decision I made! They are so cute! When I first pulled them out of the box, I was worried that the waist was going to be too small, but then I realized how stretchy the material was. They fit great and aren't see-through (though you might want to still wear longer shirts because the material is still thin enough to show underwear outlines). All in all, these are my new favorite leggings." —Aria
Price: $14.99 (available in sizes 2X-3X)
