(Are we mostly copy pasta-ing the details from the original Expanse leggings? Yep, you caught us—see the bolded section for the major difference.)
The wide, high-rise waistband of the shorts is reinforced to reduce shifting and rolling.
The back waistband is slightly pointed to reduce pulling and tightness on the backside. It wasn't an aesthetic choice, but we've been told this contouring also nicely accentuates the peach. You're welcome!
We chose to use a diamond gusset to improve range of motion and avoid the dreaded ahem dromedary metatarsal effect.
We take pockets very seriously, so we gave you three: one on each hip and another on the back waistband. The side pockets are about 5 inches wide at the top, tapering slightly towards the bottom, and 7 inches deep. The back pocket is about 7 inches wide with a 5 inch opening by 4 inches deep with the bottom following the pointed back waistband seam. All pockets were tested to confirm they accommodate a standard sized phone. Note: pocket measurements were taken on a size 3X and may vary slightly by size.
We tried a variety of inseams and the magic number seems to be 9” to avoid chub rub and prevent any creep on the thighs. (Founder’s Note: As a generously thighed human, I am deeply distrustful of shorts, so I tested this extensively on my daily walks.)
The shorts were developed on a sample size 3X or 22/24 and our graded measurements are based on the fullest fit model silhouette available.
We use flat lock seams for comfort, durability, and support.
The fabric we use is a 250gsm textile, which is a higher quality than most "standard" leggings. It’s a 75% recycled nylon and 25% spandex Oeko-Tex certified blend engineered specifically for active use. The four-way stretch fabric wicks moisture quickly without feeling hot or heavy and provides a medium level of support.

Our Black, Dark Plum, Deep Teal, and Twilight colorways are fully opaque/squat proof.

Our Ember colorway is such a vibrant color that, despite being made from the exact same fabric, it is NOT fully opaque/squat proof. Please mind your underpants with this one (nude/skin tone is fine).
The fabrics we use are fully machine launderable (wash AND dry).
Made from a premium 250 GSM blend of 75% recycled nylon and 25% spandex with four-way stretch performance fabric.

True to size. Model wears a size larger to achieve the runway look. Boxy fit with internal shoulder pads and mid-weight non-stretchy fabric.
This fabric is even better in person — thick, breathable, and has that perfect structured drape. It only gets better with wear.
