What do you like more, super skinny jeans, jeggings, or leggings? Why?

I much prefer wearing leggings over both of the other two options.

And here are my reasons why.

Leggings can be dressed up or down. They are fashionable as streetwear and they are extremely comfortable. Leggings are commonly seen as part of an athleisure outfit. Here’s another example of how leggings can be worn in a stylish way in addition to the Kendall Jenner photo above:

Fashion models and celebrities often wear leggings as part of a trendy outfit:

Whereas super-skinny jeans are less flexible than leggings. Many styles are fashionable as everyday casual outfits:

For me personally, I can move around and sit more comfortably in leggings than I can in skinny jeans. But if I’m going somewhere where I’ll walking more than sitting and jeans are appropriate for the occasion, I’ll choose skinny jeans for an outfit like the one you see above.

My experience with Jeggings is that they are thinner than either quality leggings or skinny jeans. The jeggings I personally own have a lot of spandex in them and are therefore more likely to develop a run or snag in them like nylon stockings do.

So for me personally, my preference for one over another has a lot to do with the occasion, the weather, and how informal or dressy I want to look.

I own all three of these garments but I typically wear leggings in warmer weather and skinny jeans in colder weather. The jeans I have are made of thicker cotton and are therefore more insulating in the Fall and Winter months.

Skinny jeans are very fashionable and I have more than a dozen pairs in my closet. For days when I want a fuller range of movement - on days when activewear is an appropriate choice - I prefer leggings because of their comfort and versatility.
