Leggings are close-fitting bottoms made from stretch fabrics that follow the body's shape and move with you. The Sezgi Tekin collection covers cotton-blend styles for everyday wear and technical fabrics built for training, so you can pick a pair based on how you plan to wear it rather than settling for one shape.

High-Waisted Leggings

High-waisted leggings sit above the navel and stay in place during bending or squatting. The wide waistband smooths the midsection and avoids rolling down, which makes this cut a common choice for both gym sessions and long days on your feet. Look for a thick, doubled waistband if you want extra hold.

Sports and Training Leggings

Sports leggings use polyester and elastane blends that wick moisture and dry faster than cotton. Squat-proof, opaque knits keep the fabric non-transparent when stretched, which matters for yoga, pilates and weight training. Flat seams reduce chafing on longer workouts.

Everyday Cotton Leggings

For casual days, cotton and elastane blends feel soft against the skin and breathe well. These pair easily with an oversized shirt, tunic or knit dress and work as a comfortable base layer under skirts in colder months.

• Fabric weight: thicker knits stay opaque and hold shape better than thin ones
• Waist height: high-rise for coverage, mid-rise for a lighter feel
• Length: full-length for cooler weather, capri or 7/8 for warmer days
• Purpose: moisture-wicking blends for sport, cotton blends for lounging
• Seam type: flat or seamless construction to prevent rubbing

Care Tips

Wash leggings inside out in cool water to protect the elastane and print. Skip fabric softener, which coats fibres and reduces stretch recovery. Air dry rather than tumble drying to keep the waistband snug over time.

If you are buying one pair to start, a high-waisted style in a mid-weight cotton blend covers the widest range of situations, from errands to a light workout. Add a technical pair later once you know your training routine.
