  • The wide, high-rise waistband of the leggings is reinforced to reduce shifting and rolling. 

    The back waistband is slightly pointed to reduce pulling and tightness on the backside. It wasn't an aesthetic choice, but we've been told this contouring also nicely accentuates the peach. You're welcome!

     We chose to use a diamond gusset to improve range of motion and avoid the dreaded ahem dromedary metatarsal effect. 

    We take pockets very seriously, so we gave you three: one on each hip and another on the back waistband. The side pockets are about 5 inches wide at the top, tapering slightly towards the bottom, and 7 inches deep. The back pocket is about 7 inches wide with a 5 inch opening by 4 inches deep with the bottom following the pointed back waistband seam. All pockets were tested to confirm they accommodate a standard sized phone. Note: pocket measurements were taken on a size 3X and may vary slightly by size.

    To accommodate as many bodies as possible, we chose a 7/8 length inseam.

  • The leggings were developed on a sample size 3X or 22/24 and our graded measurements are based on the fullest fit model silhouette available.

    We use flat lock seams for comfort, durability, and support.

    The fabric we use is a 250gsm textile, which is a higher quality than most "standard" leggings. It’s a 75% recycled nylon and 25% spandex Oeko-Tex certified blend engineered specifically for active use. The four-way stretch fabric wicks moisture quickly without feeling hot or heavy and provides a medium level of support.

    • Our Black, Dark Plum, Deep Teal, and Twilight colorways are fully opaque/squatproof.

    • Our Ember colorway is such a vibrant color that, despite being made from the exact same fabric, it is NOT fully opaque/squatproof. Please mind your underpants with this one (nude/skin tone is fine).

    The fabrics we use are fully machine launderable (wash AND dry).

  • Our original product, developed and produced via Kickstarter thanks to the support of our incredible community.
