Destination Legging - Women's

4-way stretch refers to a fabric that can stretch both horizontally and vertically. This feature is crucial for leggings as it allows for greater freedom of movement, making them more comfortable for activities like climbing, hiking, or training. With 4-way stretch, the fabric can expand and contract without losing its shape, ensuring you can move freely without restrictions.

Interlock knit is a specific fabric construction that involves knitting two layers of fabric together, making it thicker and more durable than regular knit fabrics. This construction provides a smooth surface and a bit of stretch, which is ideal for leggings. It offers both comfort and support during physical activities, ensuring that the leggings hold up well over time.

Moisture-wicking refers to a fabric's ability to draw sweat away from your skin and move it to the surface of the fabric, where it can evaporate more easily. This feature helps keep you dry and comfortable during intense activities, making it a desirable quality in athletic clothing. With moisture-wicking leggings, you can focus on your performance without being distracted by discomfort from sweat.

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor, which measures how well a fabric protects your skin from harmful UV rays. A UPF rating of 50+ means the fabric blocks at least 98% of UV radiation, providing excellent sun protection. This is particularly important for outdoor activities like hiking or climbing, where sun exposure can be significant. Choosing leggings with a high UPF rating helps protect your skin while you enjoy the outdoors.

Form-fitting describes clothing designed to closely follow the contours of your body. In leggings, this means they are made from stretchy materials that hug your body, providing a sleek look and allowing for ease of movement. Form-fitting leggings enhance your performance during physical activities by reducing excess fabric and ensuring a comfortable fit.

Absolutely! Leggings with 4-way stretch are versatile and designed for both high-performance activities and casual wear. Their flexibility and comfort make them suitable for workouts, while their stylish design allows you to wear them for everyday outings. You can easily transition from the gym to running errands without needing to change!
