TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Why have a pair of leggings for travelling?
We spent time in the field with the design team (designer, product manager and engineer) to observe what women need when they go backpacking. We found that many of them wear dancing or running leggings because they are extremely comfortable when travelling, walking and even when sleeping! We decided to offer a version of the leggings that is designed for outdoor use and travelling.
TRAVEL 500 leggings
We decided to offer a version of the leggings designed for outdoor use and travelling. This involved replicating the comfortable stretch attributes of standard leggings, albeit with the addition of a durable fabric seat and knee fabric. This gave us a genuine pair of leggings designed for travelling outdoors. For walking in the mountains, picnicking on a rock, etc., without the risk of making a hole!
How were the Travel 500 leggings tested?
We tested the leggings under development to make sure they fulfil the needs of backpackers. Our travelling testers tried out all the features of the product for one week in the Canary Islands. The size and position of the pockets, the fit and the seams: they reviewed and validated everything!
The security of your belongings is paramount!
When backpacking, what could be worse than losing your passport or bank card? In order to avoid this risk and give you peace of mind during your travel experience, we have hidden a secure pocket on the waistband of the leggings.

Ecodesign actions on this product
-
ProcessDope dyed
29% of the fabric color is made by dyeing the yarn at the source
Dyeing textiles requires lots of water but also leads to lots of water waste generated in dyeing vats. To reduce this environmental impact, we choose solution dyeing, which integrates colour pigments when manufacturing the thread.
-
MaterialRecycled polyester
Textile part made of 55% recycled polyester
We have incorporated recycled polyester into this product (instead of conventional polyester, which is itself derived from petrochemical plastic). What does this mean? In addition to being technical, this product has been designed taking into account its environmental impact: using recycled polyester means recovering and transforming products destined to be thrown away, such as production offcuts or plastic bottles, instead of using new oil resources.
