I don't know which pair of leggings to get!
Age 12, almost 13.
My body dimensions:
22-23 in. waist
33 in. or slightly less hip
5' 2" or 5' 3"
I've been needing black leggings for a while, and for me, it is hard to find the right size because I'm so thin. I finally found Aritzia, with their XXS being 22.5. I decided on 3 leggings, and couldn't decide between them. I'm looking for a true black (not a lighter greyish black), a tight legging that may be slightly longer so that I can wear it for a while without it being too short, and a nice soft material (I heard that nylon/spandex is quality).

Equator Legging by Golden by TNA $32: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
This legging is a nice black, and I like that there is no outside hem. However, I am skeptical about the material. This is also cheaper than the others, which makes me question the quality. I am fine with the length because although it is a medium length, the model is taller than me.
TNA Stride Pant $60: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
I'm not sure about the color of this legging, as it seems lighter than the other 2. The material seems quality, though, even though the 2nd image may hold a slight underwear line (???). The model is very tall (5' 11") and this legging will probably be my desired length. However, this is on the slightly expensive side.
TNA Cadence Pant $60: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
This pant seems nice--no possible underwear line in the photo (thankfully). The only problem is that the model is 5' 11", wearing an XS, and the pant seems just right on her (the right amount of scrunch at the bottom)...and I'm about 8-9 in shorter, wearing an XXS...which may be wayy too long on me. Other than that problem, the pricing. I'm not sure if it's worth it.
*I've heard that ultra-expensive pants like Lululemon are made of nylon and lycra (spandex) blends as well, like the Cadence and the Stride Pant.
Please give a reason for choosing what you chose :)
Thanks!

Maybe give some free advice about: Fashion and Styles?
The last one mentioned in your question looks the best to me. It's stylish and sleek and the material looks as though it will hold up over time and multiple cycles in the wash and dryer. The $32.00 ones do in fact look of cheaper quality and don't look so hot on the model in her outfit.
What I would do is try to picture what current outfits you have and would wear with this might look like. Better yet you should visit a store location and see how they look on you or look at them up close to gauge.
If on a budget try buying one of the $60 pair you like best or were leaning towards and see what you think of them then go back next month and get others. I know that may not be the answer you wanted but it's exactly what I would do as it's hard to tell when you only see something online. I think you really have to eyeball clothing of any type in person and see if it fits your style, wallet, outfits and of course your body type. If you really like all 3 perhaps buy what you can afford and ask a parent if they might help with an outfit too.
