Why you'll love it:
Composition
73% CiCLO® nylon · 27% spandex
Care
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.

The Trimline 7/8 Legging is praised for its flattering fit, rich colors, and high-quality fabric. Customers appreciate the mid-compression support and the sleek design, though some find the waistband frustrating. The leggings are also noted for their perfect length and squat-proof guarantee.

"really wanted these to work but the waistband is a strangely stiff material that feels like cardboard wrapped in fabric. Luckily they now offer a new waistband option so I'm going to try that out because I love the company's ethos and the rest of the material and fit of these leggings!"
"I’m so happy I bought these! I’d been looking for workout pants that didn’t contain bad chemicals and that actually held up during workouts and these are them! I was a little nervous by how stiff the top band seemed to be when I first opened them but they are really comfortable and don’t move or roll down during workouts, even during hiit workouts. So impressed! I’m 5’8, 150lbs, athletic build and I got a medium. I’ll be getting another pair soon!"
"This was my first time trying Definite Articles - and I’ll definitely be buying more. The set I bought is great quality, fits well, and is so comfortable. And I LOVE that they company pays attention to what goes into the clothing brand to make it healthy and safe to wear."
"I got a size small, and I'm 5'4" and 139. The contour, stretch, comfort and look is the best of all the non toxic brands I've tried. I can't wait to order more after I see how it washes!"
"I have been searching for leggings made from safer fabric that will actually hold up for long runs, hot yoga, etc AND have pockets and these are it. Bought them in two colors and recommended to all of my friends. Replacing all of my other leggings with these."
"I have bought many non-toxic leggings and these are by far the best! I’m 5’1” and approximately 115 lbs. I bought a small and the length is more like a full length legging for me. I just roll it once to achieve 7/8 length. I’m excited to purchase more colors!"
"They are the best quality non toxic workout leggings I have tried so far. They fit well and pass the squat test. I just wish the waistband wasn’t so wide. Overall a great alternative to lulu."
"I love the color and the sizing is accurate… But they are very tight around the ankles and feel extra compressing. I guess, because I thought these were made out of of a cleaner material that they would be softer and not so binding."
"Love these leggings! They are free from all the bad stuff which is why I was looking to switch brands. But, I have to say, I was surprised and thrilled to find that I like these better than the other popular brands. They have a unique waistband that doesn’t roll down and has just the right amount of tightness, and they hold their shape. I have already bought my second set of them in the full length. I highly recommend!"
"I was on the hunt for non-toxic active wear, and I found it! Like a lot of us, I wear athletic wear a lot of the time. I also work with clients regularly helping them clean-up and detox their lifestyles - wardrobe, included. Our clothing sources are important because clothing covers the largest organ in the body - our skin. When you sweat, you absorb more. Many brands, including Athleta and Vuori, have been flagged for microplastics, forever chemicals, and toxic dyes which are all known endocrine, neurorologic, and hormone disrupters. What’s worse is, every time they are washed, microplastics enter the water system. Shopping with companies who are doing better things is the fastest way to make broader changes, and I found a brand that I love! The clothing is skin and health-friendly, responsibly sourced, and it feels like the athletic-wear that I’m used to. If you are trying to phase out your nylon, polyester, and spandex performance wear, check out Definite Articles."
