The Best Faux Leather Leggings
Shoppers Choice:
HUE Women’s Leatherette Leggings
Sizing: XS-XL
Highlights: Under $50; wider waistband for a flattering fit; machine washable; can be ironed
“These are super sturdy and very comfortable. The stitching is durable. I was afraid my legs would sweat in Alabama heat but they are great! I have purchased other faux leather leggings and gotten materials that lose their shape or very hot & uncomfortable… Hue always gives your back side support and they don’t cut into your waist.” – laurah5107
Editor’s Picks:
Lyssé High Waist Faux Leather Leggings
Sizing: XS-XL

“I tried on tons of faux leather leggings before I finally decided to spend the money on these. And I’m so glad I did. They fit perfectly from top to bottom and they don’t stretch out or lose their shape throughout the day. I also love that the material is a little more substantial, so my lumps and dimples never show through these. I’m definitely saving up to buy another pair!” – Jeanine

“My favorite faux leather leggings are from Spanx. Not only do they have the look of leather with the comfort of leggings, but they also give you a flat tummy in seconds.” – Justine
Women’s Stretchy Faux Leather Leggings Pants, Sexy Black High Waisted Tights
