Whether contorting your frame into firefly pose, or gallantly jogging (walking or hobbling) through the finish line of a marathon, high waisted sports leggings are a fail-safe. Light and flexible, or supportive and body-sculpting, our versatile range of high waist tights will give you all the feels – so much so, just one pair won’t do. Designed to fit in all the right places, for the ultimate form-flattering style, high waisted leggings finish around the navel, promising extra coverage and budge-proof wear. Wide waistbands are distraction-proof when you’re working up a sweat, while firmer compression styles sculpt the waistline for a smooth silhouette.
