Cross-Waistband Leggings: The Design Prince x Mott Pioneered in Australia

Every so often, a design detail quietly shifts an entire industry. For denim, it was the rise of high-waisted jeans. For swimwear, it was the revival of the one-piece. And in activewear? It’s the cross-waistband legging; a game-changing cut that Prince x Mott proudly pioneered here in Australia.

Why the Cross-Waistband Changed Everything
Leggings have been around for decades, but let’s be real, not all waistbands are made equal. The traditional straight-cut waistband often leads to digging, rolling, or that dreaded “muffin-top” effect.

The cross-waistband solves that. Angled into a sleek “V” shape, it sculpts the waistline, elongates the torso, and creates a universally flattering silhouette. It doesn’t just sit on the body; it works with it.

Prince x Mott saw the gap in the market early on and made it their signature. While other brands stuck to straight waistbands, Prince x Mott built the Stride Collection around the cross-waistband design, giving Australian women an alternative that looked better, felt better, and moved better.

From Studio to the Street
Prince x Mott’s cross-waistband leggings blur the line between performance wear and fashion. They’re equally at home in a Pilates reformer studio as they are paired with sneakers and a blazer for coffee runs.

That versatility is exactly what today’s woman demands: pieces that support her body while fitting seamlessly into her lifestyle.

Why Early Adopters Love Them
Being part of Prince x Mott now means being part of something fresh; a brand rewriting the rules before everyone else catches on. Customers love the distinctive waistband, not only for its flattering fit but also because it makes them feel like they’re wearing something unique, not the same cookie-cutter leggings that dominate the market.

The cross-waistband legging isn’t just a design tweak; it’s a revolution in fit and confidence. And in Australia, it was Prince x Mott who led the way.

For women looking for leggings that truly flatter, adapt, and empower, there’s no better place to start than with the brand that pioneered the design in the first place.

Because when it comes to activewear, small details create the biggest shifts, and Prince x Mott’s cross-waistband leggings prove it.
