We’re breaking down the differences between our bottom layers. We’ve separated them into two categories: lightweight layers and midweight layers. All of our different leggings and shorts share a couple of key features—high waists, minimal seams, and gussets for mobility and comfort.
Lightweight Layers:
Frankie Bike Short and Swift Legging. These bottoms are designed to be worn under other clothing as layering pieces, not worn alone. They’re semi-sheer, so think of them as base layers. The fabric is fairly stretchy, so if you find that they are loose in some areas and/or you are between sizes, some customers successfully size down for a slightly more “hugging” fit.
Pockets? They both have a card pocket on the inner waistband.
