The Science Behind Our High Waisted Leggings
Revolutionary Fabric Technology
Engineered with proprietary PERFORM+™ fabric, our high waisted leggings offer 4-way stretch that recovers perfectly after every wear. The moisture-wicking, breathable knit features an antimicrobial treatment to stay fresher longer during intense workouts. Unlike cheaper alternatives, our fabric maintains opacity even in deep stretches – no awkward sheerness when bending or lunging.
Anatomical Compression Design
Medical-grade graduated compression (15-20 mmHg) through the calves and thighs enhances circulation while the high waistband provides core support without rolling. The strategic seam placement follows muscular contours to create a sculpted silhouette, with a flared leg opening that elongates the frame.
Functional Luxury Details
Two deep side pockets securely fit smartphones up to 6.7″, while a hidden waistband pocket stores cards or keys. The gusseted crotch prevents chafing, and flatlock seams eliminate irritation during marathon wear. Our signature “no-slide” waistband stays put through HIIT sessions yet remains comfortable enough for all-day wear.
Designed for the Australian Lifestyle
Yoga & Pilates Perfection
The 28″ inseam provides full coverage during inversions, while the flared leggings Australia design allows unrestricted movement in warrior poses. The matte finish prevents slipping on yoga mats, and the moisture-wicking properties keep you cool during hot yoga sessions.
High Performance Training
Tested by Australian athletes, these high waisted leggings withstand box jumps, sprints, and weightlifting without sagging. The compression support reduces muscle vibration by 27% (compared to standard leggings) to minimize fatigue during endurance training.
Everyday Athleisure
Dress up with a cropped blazer and sneakers for brunch, or pair with an oversized knit for weekend errands. The flared leg balances proportions when worn with crop tops, while the high waist creates the illusion of longer legs. Our versatile charcoal and terracotta shades transition seamlessly from studio to street.
Why Melbourneactivewear Leads the Industry
As the only Australian activewear brand awarded the Textile Innovation Seal three years running, we obsess over details competitors overlook. Our high waisted leggings feature:
- Climate-specific fabric blends tested in Australian heat and humidity
- Ethically sourced materials with OEKO-TEX® certification
- Precision laser-cutting that reduces waste by 40% compared to traditional methods
- Size-inclusive designs from AU 6-20 with petite and tall options

Complete Style Guide: How to Wear Flared Leggings Australia
Studio to Street: Pair black high waisted leggings with a cropped PERFORM+™ tank and oversized denim jacket. Add white platform sneakers and gold hoops.
Elevated Casual: Style our terracotta flares with a white linen button-down (front-tucked), brown leather belt, and minimalist sandals.
Winter Layers: Layer a fitted turtleneck under a sherpa vest with charcoal leggings and knee-high boots.
Summer Cool: Match our seaside blue flares to a matching sports bra and open-weave kimono for beachside yoga.
Care & Longevity: Extend the Life of Your Investment
Washing: Machine wash cold inside out with similar colors. Use a lingerie bag to protect the waistband. Avoid fabric softeners which degrade moisture-wicking properties.
Drying: Line dry in shade or tumble dry low for 10 minutes followed by air drying. Never iron.
Storage: Fold rather than hang to maintain elasticity. Keep away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Pro Tip: Refresh between washes with a 1:3 vinegar-water spray to neutralize odors without washing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these high waisted leggings true to size?
Our size chart reflects Australian standard sizing with compression factored in. If between sizes or preferring a more relaxed fit, size up. The waistband should feel snug but not restrictive – you should comfortably fit two fingers under the band.
How do flared leggings Australia differ from bootcut?
Our flares begin widening mid-calf for a more dramatic silhouette compared to gradual bootcut designs. The opening measures 24″ circumference (vs 18″ for standard leggings) to fully cover footwear.
Can petite women wear these high waisted leggings?
Yes! Our 25″ petite inseam option maintains the flared proportion on frames 5’3″ and under. The high waist creates leg-lengthening vertical lines.
Do the pockets stretch out over time?
Our patented Stabilis™ pocket technology uses reinforced mesh that retains shape through hundreds of wears. Testing shows less than 3% stretch after 50 washes when cared for properly.
Why invest in premium high waisted leggings?
Cheaper alternatives typically lose shape within 6 months. Our PERFORM+™ fabric maintains 98% of its compression after 200 wears, making the cost-per-wear significantly lower than replacing fast fashion leggings annually.

Min Mueller –
Okay, I’m obsessed with these leggings! The high waist is *chef’s kiss*—stays put during yoga without digging in, and the stretch is unreal. Wore them to a sweaty vinyasa class, and they didn’t budge or roll down. Plus, the flared bit makes them look so cute with sneakers when I’m running errands after. Fabric’s breathable but thick enough that I didn’t feel exposed in downward dog. Honestly, they’re my go-to now—comfy, flattering, and actually functional. Worth every cent!

Okay, I’m obsessed with these leggings! The high waist is so flattering and stays put during my yoga sessions—no awkward adjusting mid-downward dog. The fabric has heaps of stretch but still feels supportive, and the flare gives them such a cute retro vibe.

The stretch is unreal; perfect for chasing my toddler around or hitting a yoga class without feeling restricted. Love the flared design—super flattering and way more stylish than my old gym gear. Only thing is, they’re a tiny bit sheer when I bend over, but honestly, for the comfort and fit, I’ll take it. Wore them grocery shopping and even got a compliment!

Okay, I’m obsessed with these high-waisted flared leggings! The fit is so flattering, and the material’s breathable—perfect for my hot yoga sessions. Wore them to a class last week, and they stayed put without rolling down, even during the sweatiest poses. The design’s cute but practical, and after a few washes, they still look brand new. Only tiny gripe? I wish the flare was a tad wider. But hey, I’m from Sydney, and the shipping was super fast, so major bonus points there!
Sophia Lopez –
These leggings are comfy and the seamless design feels great during yoga. I wore them to my morning class in Melbourne and they stayed put without digging in. Super versatile too—I’ve even run errands in them. The fabric’s soft, but I wish it had a bit more compression for high-intensity days. Oh, and the shipping was super fast! Overall, they’re decent, just not perfect for every workout.

I’ve worn them to yoga and even while running errands—they’re versatile and stylish. The fabric feels nice, but I wish it had a bit more compression around the waist. Overall, they’re decent for daily wear, just not perfect for high-intensity workouts. Still, I’d grab another pair if they tweak the fit.

I’m from Brisbane and the shipping was super fast. These flared leggings are so comfy and stretchy, perfect for my gym sessions and even running errands afterward.

I wore these flared leggings on a coastal run last weekend and they were great. The high-waisted fit stayed put without digging in, and the stretch was perfect for my stride.

Definitely happy with them, just not quite a 5/5 for me.
