Style: Leggings

Style and comfort make these the perfect pair of leggings. Custom-made with care; each pair is printed before being sewn, allowing for fun designs on every square inch. These leggings won't lose their shape so get comfy and look cool with your own unique pair.

Due to the cut-and-sew nature of each pair of leggings, designs, and prints may not match up at the seams. We do not recommend designs with words printed on or across the seam as they are hard to match precisely by even the most skilled of dressmakers.

Bogolanfini Stride: The Mali Black & White Leggings

These African Mali Pattern Leggings are a bold declaration! The striking black and white geometric pattern is the absolute core of the revered Malian Bogolanfini (mudcloth) tradition—the powerful contrast that carries immense symbolic weight, used historically for protection and status. When you wear these, you are not just getting dressed; you are putting on a textile amulet! They embody the balance of Eshu and Obatala, the wisdom of light and shadow, all ready to move with you. They are flexible, strong, and smooth on your skin, like a secret charm against the discomforts of the world. Yet, their design is as sharp and defining as the shadows of the great Sahara dunes at sunrise. Perfect for the woman who demands comfort, style, and a touch of powerful, authentic global history in her wardrobe. Put these on, and feel the ancient energy of Africa give power and undeniable beauty to every modern step! Dominate your workout or daily routine with the powerful, minimalist style of these Bogolanfini Warrior Stride: The Mali Black & White Geometric Leggings. Featuring an authentic, high-contrast pattern inspired by the iconic Malian Mudcloth (Bogolanfini) textiles, these leggings utilize the classic black and white palette for a look that is both timeless, ethnic, and fiercely modern. The intricate geometric print is rich in history and is perfect for adding a bold, versatile, and tribal flair to your activewear or casual wardrobe. Made with a comfortable, flexible, and high-quality material, these leggings offer excellent fit and mobility for yoga, gym sessions, or making a strong, artistic statement wherever you go. Interesting Fact: In Malian culture, the traditional black and white Bogolanfini cloth was often worn by hunters and ritual specialists. The specific geometric symbols painted on the fabric were believed to possess nyama (life force or protective energy), acting as a powerful camouflage and a spiritual shield during dangerous activities.

These are the most darling pink rose leggings on the market. The dainty interlinked rosette design at the waist is truly unique. The poly-spandex makes for a nice fit and available in sizes 0-16. The printing is vibrant and eye-catching.

All-Over-Print Leggings, L (12-14)
Creator Review
Best leggings I've ever owned. At 6', I've never had leggings that reached beyond mid-calf but these go all the way past the ankle. I'm approx. 150# so ordered them in L but they wrinkle in the thighs which tells me they are a bit too big so next pair I will order an M instead. The fabric feels very high-quality- it's thick but still stretchy and comfy and has a very sleek & smooth look/feel to it. The printing is fantastic. The colors are amazingly vibrant, just as seen on screen when ordering. Be prepared to stand out in the crowd wearing these leggings; I get comments where ever I go when wearing them.
