The most common way to get diamond leggings is by crafting them. This is an expensive recipe that requires seven diamonds. You can find diamonds by mining deep underground. Once you have your seven diamonds, go to a crafting table and place them in an upside down U shape, filling the top row and the left and right columns. This will craft one pair of diamond leggings. You can also find diamond leggings as loot in the world. They have a chance to appear in chests in End cities and bastion remnants. These found leggings are often already enchanted, which is a fantastic bonus. It is also possible to get them by trading with a master level armorer villager, who may sell you enchanted diamond leggings for emeralds.

To make them even better, you can enchant your diamond leggings at an enchanting table or with an anvil. The Protection enchantment is a great choice for all around defense. You can also add the Unbreaking enchantment to make them last much longer before needing repairs. If your diamond leggings do get damaged, you can repair them on an anvil using diamonds.
