Yoginis Closet Titika Popart Yoga Legging Review

Top: Tonic, XS (true to size)
Bottom: Titika Popart Legging, Monochrome Zig Zag, Size 2 (run small)

PROS / Titika Popart Legging is made with the four-way stretch, breathable and moisture wicking fabric. It is durable and abrasion resistant.

CONS / The thin elastic band (on the waistband) digs into the waist. Also, the legging does not flatter my body well, nor does it lift the butt.

BOTTOM LINE / Titika Popart Legging provides what it needs for a yoga pant, including four-way stretch, good breathability and moisture wicking. I would be great if it provides a more flattering fit.

Titika Popart Legging Review

I first met Titika in early 2016 while googling for Canadian yoga wear brands. Its sexy and sophisticated designs draw my attention. I ordered quite a few items from Titika last April and the Popart Legging was one of them. Since the legging is still available online (the rest of the items I bought have sold out), I decide to review it this week.

1. Size – I wear size 2, which fits me perfectly. As a reference, I wear Lululemon size 4.

According to the size chart, I am size 2 or small. Please do order one size up to your normal clothing size. For example, I am US size 0 or XS, then I will be Titika size 2 or Small. I did try an XS bra from Titika, and it was too tight (I am 32B).

2. Style – 7/8 legging.

3. Inseam – 22" long. The bottom hem sits slightly above the ankle (I am 5'2").

4. Front Rise – 10.25" high rise.

5. Waistband – 4" waistband with a 0.75" elastic band inside. The elastic band slightly digs into my waist.

6. Fabric – The main fabric is made with 86% Supplex Nylon and 14% Spandex, while the printing is 82% Polyester and 18% Lycra.

7. Design for – Heated, non-heated yoga and any studio workouts.

8. Cost – Retail price $88.
I have a one time use 20% discount code, please send me a private message if you are interested.

9. Stitch Seam – Flat locking seams. Overall, they are comfortable except for the seams where the printing panels are on the front legs. They are a little bit irritative to my skin.

10. Crotch Seam – Lined triangle gusset.

There is a hidden pocket on the left waistband. It is a great bonus to store the studio or gym membership card.

Overall, I am happy with the performance of Titika Popart legging. It is stretchy, breathable, moisture wicking and fast drying. The quality is good as well. Too bad it doesn't flatter my body curvatures well. I wish it gives more lift to the butt. The seams on the front legs (printing panels) are not as comfortable as the inseams. Since the other legging I bought from Titika last year has flattering fit and the seams are comfortable, I still have high regard for Titika.

I recently joined Titika #FitSquat Program and received 50% off for the first purchase. I have added quite a few items to my shopping cart. I can't wait to review them.
