Yoga Pants Size Calculator: High-Rise to Crop
By Mohit Patel, Marketing Specialist, Tailor Size Guide
This yoga pants size calculator factors the rise variable most calculators miss: high-rise (10"+), mid-rise (8"), and crop (7") fit the same body differently. Enter waist, hip, inseam and pick a rise; the tool returns the right size for Lululemon-style compression and Alo-style relaxed-fit brands. Use the calculator below to get your exact fit in 30 seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between high-rise and crop leggings?
High-rise sits at or above your natural waist (10–12" front rise). Crop sits below (7" rise) and ends at the calf. Same body, different fit zone.
Should I size down for cropped yoga leggings?
Match exactly. Crop length doesn't change waist/hip sizing — only the leg length differs.
How tight should yoga pants feel?
Snug, with no waistband digging in. They should stretch with movement but spring back. If they sag during downward dog, size down.
Are 7/8 leggings the same as crop?
Roughly — 7/8 is mid-calf to ankle. Crop is mid-calf. Both are shorter than full-length but longer than capri.
