Custom Leggings Manufacturers Excel at Creating Comfortable Leggings

Customized leggings are in demand among consumers, as they are perfect for fitness as well as daily routines. Mega Apparel is an excellent supplier of leggings due to its knowledge of the fashion industry, customization services, and production capabilities. You can build your brand using our production services and facilities.

Leggings We Manufacture

We create different styles of leggings using custom construction methods and carefully selected fabrics to meet your
brand’s design, fit, and performance requirements.

High-Waisted Leggings

Our high-waisted leggings feature an extended waistband for a reliable fit and coverage. They are suitable for yoga, fitness, and athleisure collections and squat-resistant activewear. They are created using fabrics, including polyester-spandex and nylon-spandex, with GSM ranging from 220 to 280.

Printed Leggings

Printed leggings allow you to add all-over patterns, artwork, and graphics to the legging designs. We commonly incorporate polyester-based materials that are suitable for sublimation printing. You can choose other printing methods, depending on the fabric composition.

Kids Leggings

Kids' clothing requires special attention to details. Our kids' leggings are designed to allow flexibility, freedom of movement, softness, and comfort without excessive bulk. The most suitable materials for kids’ leggings are polyester-spandex and cotton-spandex, depending on the intended use and feel.

Unisex Leggings

Unisex leggings are the versatile leggings tailored for different sizes and body types. They require stretch, which is why the suitable fabrics for them are polyester-spandex and nylon-spandex, which add flexibility for everyday use.

Capri Leggings

Capri leggings feature a length ending below the knee or around mid-calf. They are breathable and lightweight. Capri leggings are created using stretch polyester-spandex or nylon-spandex fabrics around 220 to 280 GS, suitable for activewear. They are ideal for fitness activities, gyms, cycling, running, and summer collections.

Sublimated Leggings

Sublimated leggings are featured with artwork accomplished by transferring the graphics into the polyester fibers for an all-over and durable print. Sublimation doesn’t work on nylon, making polyester an ideal choice for sublimated leggings. These leggings are suitable for sports apparel, gyms, and custom activewear collections.

Pocket Leggings

Pocket leggings feature pockets positioned at the side of the waistband. They are tailored with medium- to heavyweight-stretch materials, which help in maintaining the support and shape around the pocket construction. They are perfect for lifestyle brands, fitness, and running.

Mesh Panel Leggings

Mesh panels are incorporated to add and enhance airflow and an appealing look. An active design can be made using performance fabrics like polyester-spandex and nylon spandex merged with stretch mesh. They are commonly used by fitness, gym, and performance clothing lines.

Scrunch Butt Leggings

Scrunch butt leggings use a contoured center-back construction for an elegantly designed look. They feature recovery characteristics due to construction with stretch nylon-spandex and polyester-spandex. They are commonly used by women's activewear collections, gyms, and fitness clothing brands.

Fabrics and Weights for Leggings

The right fabric weight for leggings affects texture, durability, opacity, support, and stretch. As an experienced sportswear and fitness clothing manufacturer, we design fitness leggings using premium-quality, sweat-wicking, and performance fabrics such as polyester spandex and nylon-spandex with common weights ranging between 220 and 280 GSM, depending on the intended use and legging style.

Matching Leggings & Sports Bra Sets

Leggings and sports bras combined create a complete workout garment suit that helps in fitness centers, sports fields, yoga, gyms, and athleisure collections. If you prefer training apparel, this combination can help in free movement, comfort, durability, stretch, and recovery. Complementary materials, prints, branding, colors, and trademarks are incorporated while creating your matching sets of leggings and sports bras.
Customization options for you are

  • Custom waistbands

Seamless Leggings

Seamless leggings differ from conventional cut-and-sew leggings in terms of manufacturing. Leggings are knitted on a circular knitting machine, creating the main body as a continuous tubular structure.
The construction reduces the number of sewn seams and offers a smooth hand feel. However, seamless production is carried out by incorporating special setup, machinery, and programming, which results in higher cost and MOQ than cut-and-sew leggings.
Therefore, seamless leggings are a wise choice for clothing lines that require specialized knitted construction instead of choosing lower-cost production.

Construction Details That Decide the Fit

Mega Apparel is your trusted custom clothing manufacturer offering efficient construction and customization services. Our construction details affect stretch, recovery, freedom of movement, and fit for different body shapes.

The customization details are:


Seam Placement

Seam placement affects comfort, appearance, durability, and silhouette.

Waistband Construction

Waistband construction depends on your requirements. They can be high-rise, elasticated, wide, or shaped.

Gusset Construction

Gussets enhance mobility and overcome stress around the crotch area.

Flatlock Seams

Flatlock seams offer a smoother skin feel and reduced seam bulk, which are significant for activewear.

Compression and Stretch

Compression and stretch elements affect support and movement through fabric stretch, recovery, and construction. They are both applicable in compression shirts and leggings.

Panel Construction

We incorporate multiple fabric panels to develop air flow, contouring, and color blocking.

Leg Opening

You can choose your own leg opening and hem construction. They can be adjusted according to your preferred style and fit.

Pocket Placement

Pockets can be placed according to the legging design. There can be side pockets, a waistband, and functional pockets, depending on your requirements.

Printing on Leggings

With our profound printing methods, we give your apparel products uniqueness, style, comfort, and perfection. We offer:

  • Silk Screen Print
  • Flock Screen Printing
  • Water-Based Pigment Screen Printing
  • Discharge Screen Print
  • Digital Printing
  • Puff Screen Printing
  • Sublimation Printing

Sublimation is a suitable printing method for polyester but doesn’t work on nylon. Therefore, the fabric composition is significant to consider before choosing sublimation printing. Polyester-made leggings are customized with all-over sublimated printing.

Print type and thickness are also significant factors for stretch leggings. Thick puff prints can crack when the fabric is stretched frequently. In this case, stretch-compatible formulations are often considered appropriate to avoid unnecessary cracking the prints.

Private Label Leggings

Our private labeling helps activewear brands maintain a consistent identity across their products. We provide customers with custom branding and garment-specific information regarding the size, fabric, and washing of clothes in the form of labels. Also, our labeling options depend on your requirements and specifications.
Our available private labeling options are

  • Custom Hang Tags
  • Custom Satin Labels
  • Custom Heat-Printed Labels
  • Custom Woven Labels.
  • Custom Tyvek Labels
  • Custom Care Labels

Tagless heat transfer labels are suitable for leggings.
Stitched labels can result in irritation or additional bulk around the waist.
Care labels may include information such as RN number, fiber content, or country of origin. They also include care instructions like washing and drying.


Sizing, Grading, and Fit

Major differences between sizes can influence coverage, stretch, waistband fit, and overall comfort, which is why leggings need appropriate grading. We consider your established size chart and targeted audience while developing grading and specifications.

We allow our customers to choose their own preferred measurements and customized sizes, which are beyond generic sizing.

US Size Waist (in) Hip (in)
XS (0–2) 24–26 34–36
S (4–6) 26–28 36–38
M (8–10) 28–30 38–40
L (12–14) 30–33 40–43
XL (16–18) 33–36 43–46
2XL (20–22) 36–40 46–50
3XL (24–26) 40–44 50–54

Note: These are generic US size references. You can share your preferred sizes according to product specifications, fabric, customization, and intended application of the leggings.

How We Test Leggings Before Shipping

We check leggings against your approved specifications and garment requirements before your bulk orders are shipped.

Our quality inspection covers:

  • Opacity and coverage
  • Precise Measurement
  • Size Specifications
  • Custom Stitching
  • Seam Quality
  • Waistband Construction
  • Appearance defects
  • Fabric flaws
  • Print placement
  • Quality finishing
  • Color consistency
  • Stretch and recovery
  • Custom Labels and Branding
  • Overall Craftsmanship

Fabric selection and construction are the key elements for performance leggings since consistent movement and stretch can reveal flaws that might not surface during a basic visual quality check.
