Why choose 7/8 leggings?
A versatile length for everything
7/8 leggings move easily between studio sessions, gym workouts and everyday wear.
Less bunching around the ankle
A popular choice if full-length leggings feel too long or you prefer a cleaner finish around the ankle. Depending on your height, 7/8 leggings may even wear like a full-length style.
Lighter feel
Less fabric through the lower leg can feel cooler and more comfortable during training.
Easy to style
Pair them with tanks, oversized knits, jackets and sneakers. The clean finish around the ankle makes them easy to style from the gym to wherever your day goes next.
How do 7/8 leggings compare to full-length leggings?
The difference comes down to where the leg finishes.
Full-length leggings extend to the ankle or foot, while 7/8 leggings finish slightly above the ankle. That shorter length often feels lighter and more breathable, particularly during training and warmer weather.
If you prefer maximum coverage or you're taller and like leggings that reach your ankle, full-length leggings may be the better option. If you're after a lighter feel or find full-length leggings too long, 7/8 leggings are often the better fit. If you want an option that transitions easily between training and everyday wear, 7/8 leggings are often the favourite.
How do 7/8 leggings compare to cropped leggings?
These terms are often used interchangeably. 7/8 leggings are a type of cropped legging, but they offer more coverage than traditional cropped styles that finish around the calf. If you're searching for cropped leggings in Australia, 7/8 leggings are often the fit you're looking for.
