Ask StyleList: What are the best leggings on the market?

Dear StyleList: Who makes the best leggings?
The best is never easy to quantify, but I think we've come close. Since not everyone can afford a $100 pair of leggings, I thought it would be helpful to come up with a best for three different price points: under $10, under $50, and under $100.
Under $10
Xhilaration Leggings from Target: Sure, they're technically juniors, but I have at least two pairs that have lasted me more than a year's worth of wear and washing. Best part? They only cost $5.99.
Under $50
Wolford Velvet de Luxe Leggings: As far as I'm concerned, Wolford makes the best hosiery in the world, so naturally, the Velvet de Luxe leggings were my pick for this category. The material is thick enough to not give you the dreaded sheer patches on your knees, but thin enough to not add bulk. Price: $38.
Under $100
Three Dot Leggings: Slightly thicker than the Wolford leggings, these Three Dots are more like pants than hosiery. Oh yeah, they're also machine washable. Price: $78.
