Fitting details
Fit & Sizing Details
Model
- The model is 1.75m tall and wears size XS (her regular size is XS/S).
Sizing
- We recommend taking your regular size.
- If you're between two sizes, we recommend sizing down.
Waist
- High-waist fit.
- How high it sits depends on your height.
Length – Tall Girls Approved
- Designed with tall girls in mind: if you're around 1.80m, these leggings will still be long enough (most leggings aren't!).
- If you're on the shorter side, the legging may run a bit long. This is easy to fix by folding the waistband or having them tailored.
Squat Proof
- Yes, fully squat proof — safe to wear during your workouts.
- Tip: we recommend wearing black underwear underneath. If you've sized down and wear white underwear, you may notice a very light show-through when the fabric is fully stretched (e.g. deep squats).
- We intentionally kept the fabric from being too thick so it stays breathable.
Fabric & Feel
- Made of cotton — much softer than standard sportswear.
- Comfortable for long wear, sits beautifully on the skin, and absolutely no itching.

Care guide
Care Instructions
Washing
- Machine wash cold at 30°C, on a gentle/delicate cycle.
- Always wash inside out — this protects both the black color and the fabric.
- Wash with similar dark colors.
- Use a mild detergent (free of harsh chemicals, perfumes and dyes).
- Do not use fabric softener — it coats the fibers, reduces breathability, and breaks down the stretch over time.
- Do not bleach.
- Tip: place the legging in a mesh laundry bag for extra protection against snags and pilling.
First few washes
- Wash separately the first 2–3 times. Black organic cotton can release excess dye at first.
Drying
- Hang to dry whenever possible — this best preserves the elasticity of the spandex and the deep black color.
- If tumble drying, use a low heat setting only. High heat can shrink the cotton and damage the spandex.
- Avoid drying in direct sunlight, as this can fade the color.
Ironing
- Iron inside out on a low setting if needed.
- Do not iron over elastic seams or prints.
Other
- Do not dry clean — the chemicals damage the spandex fibers.
- Don't leave the legging wet in a pile after your workout. Rinse or wash soon after to keep it fresh and prevent fabric breakdown.
Following these steps will keep your legging soft, stretchy, and deep black for much longer.

Find your size in 30 seconds
Most activewear is polyester with heavy compression. Cotton with a touch of stretch works differently. It follows your body instead of squeezing it, keeps its shape wash after wash, and your regular size simply fits.
True to size
Wear your usual size. That is the fit we designed for.
Fuller bust?
Size up only if you normally size up in sports bras. Otherwise your regular size gives the right support.
Between two sizes?
Size down for a tighter fit, size up for more room. Both work.
How it fits real bodies
"I could finally take my true size without sizing up just for the length."
"I basically live in sportswear and this is comfortable for workouts and everyday."
"The fabric keeps its shape beautifully and feels perfect for daily workouts."
Still doubting between two sizes? Order the one that feels right. You have 30 days to exchange it.
About the essential bra
(01)
Sculpted lift
Three fabric layers shape and support without padding. Lift that comes from construction, not inserts.
(02)
No-show coverage
The triple-layer front keeps you covered through every movement, from warm-up to cool-down.
(03)
Signature open back
An open back that breathes, with fine straps and no hardware. Nothing digs in, nothing shows.

Why we are not using polyester
Polyester is plastic. Petroleum based, cheap, durable, and woven into roughly 60% of all activewear. We chose not to use it for three reasons.
1. Chemical migration into your skin. A 2024 study from the University of Birmingham showed that sweat draws hazardous chemicals, including phthalates and endocrine disruptors, out of synthetic fibers and onto the skin. Read the study →
2. Microplastic shedding. Every wash releases microfibers into water systems. Every workout sheds them into the air around you.
3. Trapped moisture and odor. Synthetic fibers hold bacteria and smell longer than natural ones.
92% organic cotton next to your skin is a real, measurable upgrade.
Why organic cotton and not just regular cotton?
Regular cotton is one of the most heavily sprayed crops on the planet. It uses roughly 16% of the world's insecticides on just 2.5% of cropland. Those chemicals end up in groundwater, in farmworkers' lungs, and as residue in the finished fabric.
Organic cotton, by comparison:
- 87% less water use
- 45% fewer greenhouse gas emissions
- Grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers
We are not GOTS certified. That certifies an entire supply chain, and we are not there yet. We would rather tell you exactly where we stand than borrow a badge we have not earned.
And why 8% spandex, isn't that synthetic too?
Yes, and we're not going to hide it. Spandex (also called elastane) is a synthetic fiber. We use 8% in our blend purely for the stretch and shape recovery that activewear needs. Without it, cotton sportswear would bag out at the knees and lose its hold within a few wears.
Our goal isn't perfection. It's progress. We chose the smallest amount of spandex that still gives you proper stretch and movement, so 92% organic cotton stays the dominant fiber against your skin.
We try to improve our products through the years, but this is a great start.
