3/4 Leggings – A Guide to the Shorter Style

Short answer: 3/4 leggings for women end mid-calf and are the perfect middle ground between shorts and full-length leggings: cooler than full length, more covering than shorts. In bamboo viscose they are soft, breathable and comfortable for both everyday wear and light training.

When is the 3/4 length the right choice?

In summer, for yoga and indoor training, and for anyone who finds full-length leggings too warm. The shorter style gives your calves some air without compromising freedom of movement. See the selection of bamboo leggings for women.

Bamboo keeps you dry and fresh

Leggings sit close to the skin, which is why the fabric matters. Bamboo viscose carries moisture away and keeps odour down – read more in the guide to bamboo leggings and tights.

Styling the shorter model

3/4 leggings work with a loose bamboo T-shirt for women or a long top – see bamboo tops for women. For training, add a bamboo sports bra, and on cool days you can switch to full-length bamboo training trousers for women.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between 3/4 leggings and capri leggings?

They are essentially the same: both end between the knee and the ankle. 3/4 describes the length, capri is the classic fashion word for the same cut.

Can I train in 3/4 bamboo leggings?

Yes, for yoga, walks and light training they are ideal. The fabric breathes and follows the movements of your body.

What size should I choose in leggings?

Choose your usual size. Leggings should sit close without pinching, and the stretch in bamboo fabric ensures a good fit.
