This Niche Pair of Leggings Is Suddenly All Over Our Instagram

Look around any gym class and you'll usually see black leggings, black leggings, the occasional pop of print and more black leggings. However, this summer, we keep noticing red leggings popping up on our Instagram feed, always worn with a matching crop top. From deep tomato reds to postbox primary shades, this colour looks really striking when paired with bright white trainers. You don't need to spend a fortune to get the look either, as Topshop has two pairs for £20. Keep scrolling to see influencers wearing red leggings, and shop our edit of the best below.
