Show Off Your Curves with High-Rise Leggings

Eco Pocket Leggings 3.0 - Mid Rise Leggings

Smooth Your Midsection with Mid-Rise Leggings

If you have an apple shape, you might want to avoid anything that draws attention to your midsection. Mid-rise leggings are a great option for you because they sit at a comfortable point on your waist that doesn't squeeze or bulge. They also balance out your proportions by highlighting your legs. Look for leggings with some details on the lower part, such as detailed pockets with buttons, to add some interest and texture. SHOP MID RISE LEGGINGS.

Bamboo Pocket Capri - Low Rise

Lengthen Your Torso with Low-Rise Leggings

If you are petite, you might want to create the illusion of a longer torso. Low-rise leggings can help you achieve that by lowering your waistline. They also give you more room to play with brigth colors, which can add some fun and personality to your outfit. Just make sure they fit well and don't sag or bunch up. SHOP LOW RISE LEGGINGS.

Live Wire Leggings 2.0 - 3 Panel Wide Waistband

Flatter Your Hips with Wide-Waistband Leggings

If you have a triangle shape, you might want to avoid anything that digs into your waist or hips. Wide-waistband leggings are a perfect choice for you because they provide more coverage and support for your lower half. They also smooth out any muffin top or love handles. Our high rise leggings feature a 3 panel waistband for a secure comfortable fit that hugs evenly from the top to the bottom with no elastic to dig in. You can opt for solid colors that complement your skin tone and contrast with your top, or go for subtle textured tones like the color Zeppelin shown above.
