Layers are crucial to fighting the unforgiving winter cold. But certain limbs aren’t as easy to bundle up — and that’s why fleece leggings are pretty much the perennially cold’s best friend this time of year.
A strong pair of leggings — one that’s comfortable, versatile and not see-through — can work for a number of occasions, from a coffee run to a fitness class, even for a going-out look. That makes them a cold-weather essential in every wardrobe. (Sorry, Gen Z.)
As a Cold Girl™ myself, I sleep easier knowing I have a trusty pair of toasty leggings I can yank on for whatever my morning holds — if I’m not already sleeping in them, that is. Ahead, we hunted down the best thermal leggings we could find; some are lined with fleece, some rendered out of ultra heat-retaining fabrics and all are ready to add to your daily rotation ASAP.
