Leggings recommendation pls? (Not Matty M)

[v]

Anyone have recommendations for high-quality ones?  They will be worn as pants, so thickness is important.  

Thanks!

Zella live-in leggings

I recently bought some from Loft. I have yet to wear them though, so I can't speak to whether they will hold up. Hopefully they do; but for now they seem decently thick and well made.

Jcrew pixie pants. (I consider them leggings). They are thicker and I feel totally comfortable wearing them out as pants. For actual leggings lulu wunder unders.

Zella live in - the best.

I bought some from the Loft Outlet last year that are similar to Matty M, except much thicker and sturdier.

I have Vince leggings that are a bit pricey but they have held up well (despite my not dry cleaning them as recommended, WTF).     I've only tried the maternity version so far, but I also like the JCrew pixie pants (size normal/down, they stretch).  I don't consider them leggings but they are a good "skinny pant" option.  I wear them to work about 4x/week now.

Another vote for Zella

These are good. Also, Target sells a knock off of the Lulu Wunder Unders.....called C9 premium legging. $39.99

Thanks god, another person who doesn't think Matty M leggings are the bomb. I wear mine as tights with a dress when it's Bitchass cold, but not as pants/leggings.

How workout-y are the Zellas?  I have Wunder Unders and don't/wouldn't wear them as everyday leggings because they feel like workout gear to me (also, because there's a logo which makes them seem even more workout-y)

I'd like them if they didn't pill horribly after 2 wears...

My "nice" ones that I wear with tunics are Paige. They have a zipper and fake pockets and were pricey, but I've had them for 3 years, which is pretty good. Paige also makes regular leggings for around $30, but I think the Matty M ones are nicer, except for the fact that they run so big.

no logos on zellas, but they are workoutish material (which makes them thicker than normal leggings)

the target WUs have no logo and i wear them as leggings with the Target tunic :-)

Love Zellas. There are rumors that they're the same as the Lulus - apparently the head of product development for Nordstrom came from Lulu.

My friend was wearing some super cute thick leggings as pants the other day and when I asked she said she got them at White House Black Market. I know nothing more than that, and it seems really random, but they looked great.

Yes! I have them on now, for the first time and they are awesome.

[kittycatlove]

Lurker here, but I really like the White House Black Market ones.

[kdrake8]

Lurker on this board, but I love the Loft ponte leggings.

When I'm going for leggings as pants, I like the JCrew Pixy pants.

For lounging around the house/WFH, I just wear workout leggings (but they look very workout-y).

[cheezer]

Lysse from Nordstrom. They have ones with a panel that sucks you in at the top which makes a very flattering line.

I have a pair from INC that have lasted me almost two years. I bought them at Macys.

Zella and I accidentally ordered Lands End Starfish leggings which were surprisingly nice.

[jaybird]

I love the Loft's Lou and Greg leggings (or whatever that brand is called). I pretty much lived in them last year post - pregnancy and you'd never know they were so well worn.
