Today I’m sharing a Fall and Winter staple: Commando’s stunning faux leather leggings. I own these pants in two colors and love how versatile and comfortable they are!
As soon as temperatures begin to drop, I reach for my Fall/Winter wardrobe: leggings, boots, and layers on top. Last year, I repeatedly saw Commando’s faux leather leggings on Revolve’s top sellers. Up until then, the Spanx Faux Leather Leggings were a staple in my cold weather wardrobe, but I found the material to be thin and easily weathered. Intrigued by Commando’s growing presence, I pulled the trigger on the Perfect Control Patent Leather Legging in black. The rest is history!
Like the Spanx alternative, these leggings require a bit of shimmy to get on — but they’re more than worth the extra wiggle. While I once believed the Spanx leggings were as flattering as it got, I significantly prefer the Commando silhouette. These leggings are smoothing from waist to ankle and accentuate all the best areas. Best of all, they really do earn their “faux leather” label. I’m wearing the patent leather option in these photos, but the brand also sells a more classic leather texture.
If you’re easily bothered by squeaking sounds, these leggings may not be for you. Read the brand’s recommendation for minimizing the noise below.
“Commando’s Faux Patent Leather Leggings are high shine! Made from a four-way stretch faux patent leather with excellent recovery, our signature internal smoothing waistband and finished with a flattering high rise fit, these patent leggings are a show stopper. These leggings are made from a faux-patent leather with 4-way stretch and high shine, which can cause mild “squeakiness.” If this is an issue for you, we recommend a light coating of clear moisturizer or body oil applies to the exterior of the inner thigh of the leggings.”

Look One: Commando Leather Leggings
For an elevated daytime look, I paired the leggings with a favorite Fall dress by Superdown. This fit more like a tunic than a dress, and I loved how it paired with the bold leather pants.
