The Yoga Legging page brings together leggings and shorts for women: high-waisted models, seamless, wrap-effect or wide-cut, from Hummel, Mandala, Athlecia, Lotuscrafts, Urban Goddess, Yogaessential and super.natural.
A legging that stays in place during every pose.
A yoga legging should remain opaque during forward bends and wide-legged postures: this can be checked by bending in front of a mirror. It should also stay put at the waist without slipping in inversions and twists. High-waisted styles, like those from Hummel or Urban Goddess, support the tummy and stay in place; the wide waistband prevents it from digging in or rolling down.
Yoga also includes:
All the gear can be found on the yoga page.
The seamless legging, like the one from Hummel, reduces chafing during seated and lying postures. The wrap-around effect, with crossed panels at the waist like the Hummel Wrap or Mandala Wrap, adds a touch of elegance. The loose legging, such as the one from Mandala, is suitable for gentle practices and meditation. The shorts, which are shorter, are worn for hot yoga in a heated room.
The technical materials, nylon and elastane, dry quickly and move with your stretches. Blends that include merino wool, like those from super.natural, regulate temperature and minimise odours. Organic cotton, like that from Lotuscrafts, offers great softness for calm practices. Wash your legging at a low temperature, without fabric softener, which relaxes the fibres, and lay it flat to dry.

The simplest test is to bend forward in front of a mirror under bright light. A dense fabric, with a sufficient weight, remains opaque during bends and wide-legged postures.
The high waist supports the tummy and doesn’t slip in inversions or twists. The low waist, which is more freeing, is suitable for those who don’t like compression on the abdomen.
Yes, with a maternity model or a wide, soft waistband worn under the tummy, which supports without compressing. Avoid tight waistbands and overly restrictive fabrics.
Organic cotton, soft and breathable, is suitable for gentle yoga and slow practices. The technical fabric, stretchy and quick-drying, is essential for vinyasa or hot yoga, where you sweat a lot.
A wide, high waistband that doesn’t roll, and thick, stretchy fabric ensure comfort and opacity. Seamless cuts also reduce chafing in the inner thighs.
