Yoga Leggings Measurement Names by Area. 1-Waist Length 2-Hip Length 3-Rise Length 4-Inseam Length.

[Asia Economy Reporter Joo Sang-don] It has been found that yoga leggings sold on the market vary by product even with the same size, requiring consumer caution.

On the 17th, the Consumer Public Interest Network announced "Yoga Leggings Quality Comparison Information" containing these details.

The comparison targets were nine products: ▲Nike (BV5716-010) ▲New Balance (NBNS94W322-00) ▲Descente (S9322YKL72) ▲Reebok (EB8098) ▲Mullawear (MLP_0914) ▲Adidas (MIFSA002 SB210) ▲Andar (AIWL-10906) ▲Jeximix (XP9108E) ▲STL (LG001).

The results showed differences by product even with the same size. Among six products labeled 'M', waist lengths ranged from a minimum of 27 cm (STL) to a maximum of 35.5 cm (Reebok and Adidas), a difference of 8.5 cm. For products labeled '55반~66', waist lengths ranged from a minimum of 24 cm (Mullawear) to a maximum of 27 cm (Jeximix), a difference of 3 cm.

To measure absorption speed, which indicates how quickly sweat is absorbed, tests were conducted after 10 washes. Reebok and Adidas products showed relatively superior performance. For drying speed, measuring the time taken to dry after being wet, Descente and Mullawear products performed relatively well.

Jeximix and STL were found to have a risk of dye transfer due to friction when dry. STL stated that since the second half of 2019, they have upgraded the legging fabric to improve the overall quality of their products.

All products met safety standards for harmful substances.

Quality comparison information on yoga leggings can be found on the Consumer Public Interest Network website and the "Happy Dream Open Consumer Portal".
