STIO Yoga

Frequently Asked Questions

• What makes Stio's yoga leggings, like the Women's Glide Tech Legging, different from other activewear?

  Stio uses Fortis™ stretch interlock nylon/spandex that combines a sueded, second-skin hand with 4-way stretch and strong rebound, plus anti-odor and high-wicking finishes. Design details like a high-rise waistband with an infinity drawcord, flatlock seams, and secure pockets prioritize mobility, comfort, and day-to-day durability for studio flows, trail runs, and errands.
• How should I choose the right size and fit for Stio leggings?

  Stio leggings are built for mobility with a high-rise, stretchy fit—check Stio's official size chart and compare your hip/waist measurements to the chart for the best baseline. If you prefer a compressive, locked-in feel choose your usual size; if you want more room for layering or a relaxed fit, consider sizing up, and note the infinity drawcord helps customize waist fit.
• Are Stio leggings good for both dynamic yoga and trail running?

  Yes, the Fortis™ nylon/spandex blend offers 4-way stretch and quick wicking for dynamic yoga flows, while durable construction, seam placement, and anti-odor finishes stand up to trail abrasion and longer runs. Features like zippered hip pockets and a stay-put high-rise waistband make pieces like the Women's Glide Tech Legging versatile for studio-to-trail use.
• How does the Women's Glide Tech Legging compare to Stio's hiking or insulated pants?

  The Glide Tech Legging is lightweight and optimized for unrestricted movement, breathability, and a sueded next-to-skin feel, whereas Stio hiking or insulated pants emphasize weather resistance, reinforced panels, and thermal layers for protection on rugged or cold outings. Choose Glide Tech for high-mobility activities and studio use, and pick hiking/insulated styles when you need abrasion resistance, water resistance, or warmth.
• What's the best way to care for Stio nylon/spandex leggings to maintain stretch, wicking, and anti-odor performance?

  Wash leggings inside out on a cold, gentle cycle and avoid fabric softeners or bleach, which can reduce wicking and anti-odor treatments; close zippers and wash with like colors. Tumble dry low or hang to dry to preserve elasticity and sueded finishes, and avoid high heat ironing or drying to prevent loss of shape.
