Leggings and shorts lengths

Inseam is measured on the finished garment from the crotch seam to the hem. It's the same in every size, so you choose your size and your length separately.

Style Short Regular Tall
High Waist, Pocket, Mid-Rise, Sculpt and No-Front-Seam leggings 23" 25" 28"
Bootcut leggings 27" 29.5" 32"
Capri leggings 17"
High Waist and Pocket shorts 3" 5"

Which length for your height

A guide to where the hem lands, barefoot. Full length sits at the ankle; 7/8 sits just above it.

Your height Leggings (23" / 25" / 28") Bootcut
Up to 5'1" Short 23" for full length Short 27"
5'2"–5'4" Regular 25" for full length, or Short 23" as a 7/8 Regular 29.5"
5'5" Tall 28" for full length, or Regular 25" as a 7/8 Regular 29.5"
5'6"–5'9" Tall 28" for full length, or Regular 25" as a 7/8 Tall 32"
5'10" and up Tall 28" sits just above the ankle Tall 32"

Capri 17" is a mid-calf crop on most heights. Between two lengths? The longer one gathers slightly at the ankle; the shorter one sits as a 7/8.

How to choose your size

Most styles run true to size. PureFlex and Pure are garment dyed and pre-shrunk, so choose the size you normally wear.

If you're between sizes, please size up for the best fit.

Need a different length? Change the inseam, not the size. Leggings come in three inseams and shorts in two, so a shorter inseam at your true size will fit better than a smaller size.

Shorts: check the measurements at your hip rather than the size you usually wear in shorts.

Bras and tops: your usual size for a secure fit, or size up if you prefer less compression.

Pure Lightweight Joggers: these fit closer than the name suggests. If you want a relaxed fit, size up.

Texas-Grown and EcoLuxe styles: use the measurements on the chart above.

Still deciding between two sizes? Email hello@purakai.com and we will help.

How to measure

Bust: around the fullest part of your chest, with the tape flat but not tight.

Waist: around your natural waist, where you usually wear your pants. Relax and leave about 1/4 inch of slack.

Hips: around the widest part of your hips and seat, usually about 2 inches below your hip bones.

Inside leg: from your crotch straight down to where you want the hem, barefoot. Compare it with the inseams above.

Initially, I was concerned that maybe these leggings would slide down. They stay in place and are very comfortable! The feel is very soft and I can move easily with everything staying in place. Great quality and customer service!

I'm 5 feet tall and weigh 112lbs. These leggings aren't too long and don't look weird when I hike up the fabric a bit. I love the Tidal Teal color!

I bought these as a layer of warmth beneath ski pants. They hug nice and tight and are breathable. The 2x fits my 5-foot-6, 200 lb frame.

Customer photo review of PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

I’ve been looking for a new brand of leggings that are more sustainable, less toxic, and actually look good on—and I’m so pleased with these! I’m a Pilates instructor and wear leggings most days, so comfort, fit, and function are really important to me. These leggings check all the boxes. They’re comfortable enough to teach and move in, but still look flattering and feel well made. And as someone with a 33½-inch inseam, I’m especially excited that these leggings are actually long enough for me! Finding leggings that fit well through the waist and hips without being too short has always been a challenge. I’m really happy to have found a brand that aligns more with what I’m looking for in terms of sustainability and materials, without sacrificing style or performance. I’ll definitely be buying more!

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

These leggings are just what I’ve been looking for organic cotton. They fit phenomenally so comfortable. Can’t wait to buy another pair!

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

I love them, a little too heavy but that’s ok . Looking forward to more color options and maybe a few more capris for warmer climates. I got a lot of compliments from my yoga group

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

I love my PuraKai leggings ! I'm a committed yogee and spend a considerable amount of time in leggings. My new Purakai leggings are so soft and comfy, could easily wear them all day. The wait to receive them was a bit longer than expected, but definitely worth it. I do wish they were available in red and or yellow - maybe one day !

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

These leggings feel soft and so much more comfortable than my other leggings by popular brands. The olive green is a really pretty shade. I will be living in these this fall!

Love these leggings ! So soft and comfy ! They are the kind that you don’t want to take off ! Really really worth it ! I can’t wait to buy another pair !!

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

As a personal trainer, I wear leggings every day, and I hate knowing that I’m spending hours working and sweating in fabrics that may contain unwanted chemicals. So, I went on a hunt for cotton leggings that checked all my boxes—and I’m picky! I’ve tried other brands of “non-toxic” leggings and was sadly disappointed. However, Purakai did not disappoint! These leggings fit perfectly, stay in place while I’m working out, are breathable, and aren’t see-through. They check every box for me! I’ll definitely be replacing my other leggings with these. So happy I found these!

Customer video review of PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

Sorry for a blurry messy bathroom video! But these leggings are amazing! This is my second pair. I switched to the 23 inch and they are perfect!!!! . I got them in medium and worried they would be too tight but they are a perfect fit I’m 5 ft 4, 150 pounds. I am going to get them in another color soon!

Customer video review of PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

LOVE LOVE LOVE! I've been looking for stretchy, but nontoxic leggings with GOOD quality forever! These are the ones - I'm obsessed! They're just the right height and feel amazing. They are on the thinner side, but I actually prefer that to wear daily and during workouts. They are NOT see through. Oh, and customer service is absolutely amazing - they take care of you and really work hard to build client relationships! Very happy and can't wait to get more.

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

I absolutely love that you have embraced and are dedicated to COTTON. I can't stand the synthetics. I am thrilled I have found my "new" leggings go-to! Very well made; perfect soft not-too light, not too heavy fabric. Would love to see some limited edition colors, maybe even tie-dye!

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

Love them, have tried quite a few organic cotton leggings and these are the only ones that don’t roll down and make me tug at the them the whole time!

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

These are some of my favorite leggings, I love how they have a length for my height I’m 4ft11in And I love how they are high waisted for tummy control. I just wish they came in more colors.

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

I love these leggings! They are so comfortable and much cooler than my synthetic ones! I don't even want to wear those anymore! Would love to see more colors!

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

I love these leggings. They have good stretch and are comfortable. I got a small but would probably go for an XS next time. They have some extra space.

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

Plenty big for me (M) (I’m 5’4” 126lb) not sure if they shrink though. Wiped a spot off with wet washcloth and black dye came off on the cloth! I’ll be sure to wash with like colors. Very comfortable, balanced compression throughout garment. Nap was malleable as in you can make a design in the surface and it stays until you smooth it out. Assume that element may wash out. I’ll wait for final assessment after laundering.

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

I always feel it’s risky to buy clothing online. But I took a chance with these and I’m so glad I did. These are beautiful. The material is wonderful. It’s mostly cotton with a little spandex. They stay up great and I can’t say enough good things about it. This will become my standard legging and I will order more pairs pretty soon. Buy with confidence these are high-quality.

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

Fabric is wonderful, cotton but still form fitting. It's a bit too high waisted for me but I like the seamless waste and so I can easily just fold it a little. Perfect mix between 100% cotton leggings and typical plastic leggings.

These are absolutely incredible!!! They compress just enough, they breathe luxuriously, and Yoga in these leggings is a transcendental experience. Thank you for making such an incredible product!

PureFlex Organic Cotton High Waist Leggings

I love these leggings so much. They are so soft, supportive and stretchy. I am a size 25 in AGOLDE and 26 in Mother denim and a 34" hip and got a size small. Mahalo for your intentional works of art.
