Leggings — overview
Cotton-lycra, churidar and ankle-length leggings in wide colour ranges for retail, wholesale and private-label brands. It belongs to our women's & ethnic wear range, part of the garments & apparel division of Hurain Garments Exporter.
India is the natural source for women's ethnic and fusion wear. Jaipur, Surat, Delhi, Kolkata and Ludhiana combine block printing, embroidery, rayon and cotton weaving with fast, flexible sewing units, so designs can move from sketch to container in weeks. We supply kurtis, leggings, tops, dresses, abayas and kaftans to boutiques, diaspora stores, wholesalers and fashion brands.
Women's wear is design-led, so we work in small design runs: a buyer can order twenty styles of 300 pieces rather than two styles of 3,000. Every design is sampled, graded and photographed before it is cut, and size sets are packed to the buyer's market.

About our leggings
Leggings are among the highest-volume garments we ship, bought by wholesalers in Africa and the Gulf and by retailers in Europe and North America. Their economics depend on consistent stretch, colour and fit across thousands of pieces, which is why we source from units that knit and dye their own jersey.
A good legging holds its shape after fifty washes, stays opaque when stretched, and has a waistband that does not roll. We test for all three, and we reject lots where recovery or opacity falls below the agreed standard.
Because colours are the main variable, we recommend a stock palette of 20–30 colours with a few seasonal additions, so you can reorder the best sellers in smaller lots with a short lead time.

Leggings made in bulk to your colour, size and design
You are not limited to stock designs. We make leggings in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply. A reference garment, a tech pack, a sketch or even a photograph is enough to start.
How it works: send a Pantone code or fabric swatch for colour and we return a lab-dip; send your size chart and the ratio you want in each carton; send artwork, print, embroidery or label files for the design. We make a sample for approval and then produce the bulk to that approved sample, so the order you receive matches the one you signed off.
- Colour: 50+ solid colours, melange and prints; dyed to Pantone in bulk.
- Size: Free size (fits S–L), XL–3XL, and numeric sizing 26–40 inches; plus-size 4XL–6XL on request.
- Design and branding: custom colours and prints, private-label waistband labels, own packaging and header cards and special waist and length patterns.
