Are Sweaty Betty leggings squat-proof?
The high-compression styles are opacity-tested and use a dense polyamide that holds its structure under tension — yes, squat-proof. The lighter-weight running and yoga fabrics are also opacity-tested but use a different construction. If squat-proof performance is the priority, the high-compression HIIT and strength styles are the correct choice.
What's the difference between 7/8 and full-length Sweaty Betty leggings?
The 7/8 cut falls just below the knee — designed to show off trainers and give a cleaner silhouette for gym and studio use. Full-length covers the ankle — better for outdoor running in cooler weather or low-movement activities. Both cuts are available across the main legging families. Fit, compression level and fabric are identical between lengths.
How should I wash Sweaty Betty leggings?
Wash inside-out on a gentle cycle at 30°C. Avoid fabric softener (coats fibres and reduces moisture-wicking) and the tumble dryer (heat degrades elastane). Air dry flat. With correct care, the compression and shape should last 2–3 years of regular use.
Power Leggings — what's the difference between 7/8 and full length?
Power 7/8 Workout Leggings hit just above the ankle — best for running, cardio, hot training and warmer weather wear. Full Length Power Leggings cover the full leg to ankle — best for cooler weather, weight training and yoga. Both use the same four-way stretch Power fabric and Bum-Sculpting waistband. £35.20–£44.
Are Sweaty Betty compression leggings high-waisted?
Yes — the Power Workout Leggings sit at high-waist (around the natural waist) with the signature Bum-Sculpting waistband for support and shaping. The waistband stays put without rolling during burpees, jumps and inversions. Pocket detail on most styles for keys/phone.
