Machine wash cold, tumble dry low
Built on CiCLO® biodegradable fiber.
CiCLO® is built into our recycled synthetics to do two things: shed fewer microplastics in wear and wash, and biodegrade rather than linger. Independent testing shows CiCLO treated fibers biodegrade in under four years — so they don’t add to long-term microplastic pollution.

"Fabric is soft and stretchy, perfect for relaxing or training! It hugs your body, but not constructing, just a nice form fitting legging. The color is exactly how it looks online and the leggings came in their own package. The material feels great and is very durable."
"I just got my leggings and love them! They fit great! I took off one star because I wore and washed them once and a thread came loose down the front seam. I contacted customer service and they took care of me - excellent customer service and I really appreciated how easy they were to work with! I’m excited to get to wear them more! For reference I’m a size 2, weigh 140 pounds and got a size small and they fit great. The quality seems great- the leggings are a little thicker and are squat proof."
"I bought these leggings for myself and a performance tee for my husband, and both were a hit! I love my leggings, and he’s just as happy with his tee. What makes me appreciate Definite Articles even more is the thought they put into the environmental impact of their clothing. We came for the activewear, but that’s another reason to keep coming back."
"I wore Athleta and Lululemon leggings for years, and when I decided to move toward clothing made with materials I felt better about wearing, I struggled to find leggings that I liked as much. Until now! These Trimline V-Waist Leggings are fantastic! What I particularly love is the V-waist design in the back. It's incredibly flattering, accentuates your natural shape, and doesn't flatten your butt the way some leggings do. The fabric is wonderfully soft and comfortable. I've been wearing them for my morning walks, and they're perfect for the cooler fall mornings before winter temperatures arrive. I also love the colors! They're beautiful, versatile, and coordinate so well with the rest of my wardrobe. I appreciate being able to put together outfits that are both functional and attractive. After searching for a replacement for my old favorite leggings, I'm so happy to have found these!"
"I got the Olive color and I’m obsessed with it. The material is a very soft and sleek texture which is amazing for a nontoxic/low toxic brand. Sizing is a little off as a petite pear shape. The size large is comfortable but I have to hike the legs up because they are so long and then it slides down behind my knees during lifting workouts, but a size medium was not squat proof for a 46” hip even though it has better compression. Ended up keeping the large but I just wear them on casual/easy gyms days where I wouldn’t be frustrated at them sliding down."
"Love these. The fabric is such a nice quality compared to the stiffer, thicker fabric I’ve found with other non-toxic brands. For me, the V waist fits great and runs true to size. The original 7/8 leggings were slightly too tight in the waist for me. For reference, I’m pretty straight with no hips and I find the V waist fits just right."
"I was skeptical that these would be a suitable replacement for my favorite Athl*ta leggings, but I was wrong. They are so smooth, don’t stretch out while wearing, and fit great! I’m in my mid-40s and have had 5 kids and am thicker around the waist. The v-waist style fits my waist much more comfortably than the regular style. I returned the regular ones and hope to get a second pair of v-waist. My only complaint is that I wish I could have exchanged my regular leggings for a pair of v-waist, but the returns portal wouldn’t give me that option, so I had to do a return instead. I got size small and am 5’5” 130 lbs."
"They fit but then I felt like I needed to pull the pants up more often than I normally do. After washing one time the pants pulled a little and I was disappointed because I’m trying to be nontoxic but with these prices and the deterioration I’m not that happy."
"So disappointed by these leggings! I returned them. As a woman athlete, it always frustrates me when I can tell a company didn’t have any athletes actually test their products during the design process. I was so excited because I’m trying to move away from harsh chemicals but I still feel like synthetic materials are the best for activewear, so this brand seemed really promising! But they have a super thick crotch seem which was incredibly uncomfortable, the waist band is so wide I thought I accidentally purchased a pair of maternity leggings, and the fabric feels incredibly thin and cheap. Save your money and don’t buy these."
"I bought the tramline leggings and sports bra to match. GREAT FIT. Interesting material but after training in the entire fit I loved the way it fit and the sweat absorption. Felt so good to know it's not TOXIC and my body can feel and look this good in my Definite Articles set."
