You can't beat the comfort of pocketed leggings, but when you're wearing something that figure-hugging, they should have extra reinforcement around the waist — we could all use a little more confidence when we're running errands and walking the dog! And that's just as important as having pockets for all your essentials.
Ahead are five great shopper-approved pocket leggings that are not only tummy-taming, they're sweat-wicking and super-soft. Who knows: This might be the motivation you need to sign up for barre tonight.

In addition to hiding a convenient pocket, the waistband offers superior tummy control. And there are two large pockets on the sides, too. The fabric is not see-through, like so many other high waisted leggings we've noticed on the market. Super stretchy and packed with compression, these come in different colors and fit a wide range of body types while sculpting your bottom for a flattering fit.
"I am on my 6th pair, not because they wear out fast but because of how awesome they are.," reports a rave reviewer. "Super comfortable, flattering, breathable and soft. I started wearing these leggings to work out a couple of years ago and never looked at another brand. They hold in my tummy without feeling tight and the pockets on both legs are indispensable. Even after having my baby they hold my mom pooch in. They wash well, retain shape and the seams are strong. I really can't say enough. You don't need to look any further for great leggings."
Ewedoos High Waist Tummy Control Leggings with Pockets
We can see why these pocket leggings are Amazon bestsellers: The super soft, opaque fabric wicks away moisture while the high waist doubles as tummy control for a flattering fit. And in addition to side pockets, there's a hidden pocket in the waistband!
Says a five-star fan: "The only leggings I’ve ever worn before were LuLaRoe, so I bought these based on good reviews and because they have pockets. I was not disappointed! The fabric has a nice silky feel. They don’t get too hot and they hold their shape really well. They do control my belly, but are still comfy enough to lounge around in. The pockets are big enough to hold an iPhone with a chunky case... and my keys...and my wallet...and my lip gloss. They shipped fairly fast and I haven’t noticed any defect in the manufacturing. I’ve washed them twice and they look and feel as good as the first time I tried them on. Perfect for a mom on the go looking for comfort and convenience. They’d probably be nice to work out in too, I wouldn’t really know."

"HOLY MACRO!" a shopper wrote. "They fit! And not just fit, they fit perfectly!!!! The stretch in these leggings is nothing like I’ve ever seen, and the hold makes me feel like the 175 lbs I’m aspiring to be. They hold perfectly but they’re not tight, they stretch but they are not see-through at all!"

"I will die in these pants," raved a happy shopper. "The high waistband slims my tummy and doesn't give me a muffin top while being comfortingly tight. It's like wearing a hug, but on your butt. And. They. Are. Sooooooooooooo soft."
