Comfort, style and commitment: the winning trio

At UJŌ, we design our leggings as stand-alone pieces. They're not only beautiful and original, they're also designed to move with you, even in the height of summer. Velvet may seem like a surprising summer choice, but when chosen well, it becomes a true ally. Here's how to find your perfect fit.

1. Choose the right velvet: brushed, soft, breathable

Not all velvet is created equal. At UJŌ, we use high-quality Italian brushed velvet: supple, stretchy, soft against the skin, and above all, breathable. This type of velvet maintains its shape without sticking to the skin, even when temperatures rise. Perfect for moving freely, dancing, skating, or just feeling good.

2. Choose a cut that flatters and lets you breathe

Summer leggings should fit snugly, without constricting. Our cuts are designed to fit your body perfectly, without any annoying center seams. We recommend high-waisted styles for support, with a 7/8 length or exposed ankles if you're looking for a cooler feel.

3. Favor bright or deep colors

Summer is the time to be bold. At UJŌ, our velvet leggings come in electric blue, intense green, fuchsia pink, and neon yellow. Velvet captures the light and gives a unique depth to the colors. Ideal for creating a striking look without sacrificing comfort.

4. Made in France, for durable clothing

In summer and winter, choosing local manufacturing makes sense. Our leggings are made in a family workshop in France, using recycled or upcycled materials. Wearing UJŌ leggings means supporting more responsible fashion, all year round.

5. The right ally for festivals, sports or holidays

A good pair of velvet leggings can go anywhere: to a festival with a matching bra, on a trip in your minimalist suitcase, or chilling on a rooftop. Lightweight, easy to care for, stylish, and practical.

In short : to choose the right velvet leggings for summer, you should opt for quality fabric, a comfortable fit, vibrant color, and responsible manufacturing. And if you want to try them out, you can find our models here:
