Why Boys Leggings Deserve a Spot in Every Wardrobe

When it comes to dressing boys, leggings are often overlooked - but not at L&L. We’re big fans of leggings for all genders. And honestly? Boys leggings might just be the most versatile piece in their whole wardrobe.

Lightweight and comfy, easy to pull on, and available in bold prints or chilled-out neutrals, our boys leggings work hard all year round. Let’s walk through how to style them for each season - whether your little one is crawling, cartwheeling, or chilling on the sofa with snacks.


Spring Layers and Fresh Prints 🌿

Spring is unpredictable - sunny one minute, drizzly the next. That’s where leggings shine. Pair a bold-printed pair with a soft hoodie or longline tee. Add a raincoat and you’ve got a practical outfit that still looks like it was styled on purpose.

Style tip: Opt for reversible cuff leggings so you can adjust the length as they grow. Seasonal prints like Festive Leaves, Cool Cats or Artic Owls make the outfit pop with zero effort.

Summer Cool and Comfy ☀️

Hot days call for breathable outfits. Leggings are lighter than jeans or joggers, but still give a bit of protection from scrapes when they’re out exploring.

Try styling leggings with a loose-fitting vest or graphic tee. Go for light colours, soft waistbands and cool-to-the-touch cotton. And barefoot is a vibe, always.

Autumn Adventures 🍂

When it starts to get crisp out, leggings become the go-to layer under oversized knits or slouchy sweatshirts. Add boots or high-tops and you’ve got a whole look.

This season is perfect for earthy tones, woodland prints, and textures that feel snuggly but breathable. Our boys love pairing our leggings with beanies and gilets when the air gets nippy.

Winter Warm-Ups ❄️

Don’t rule out leggings in winter - just layer smart. Fleece-lined jackets, cosy socks, and thermals turn a pair of cotton leggings into the foundation of a warm, wearable outfit.

Try matching them with a long-sleeve romper underneath or doubling up with joggers over the top for snowy adventures. And remember: stretchy waistbands mean they stay comfy even when layered up.

Outfit Confidence Starts Young

Boys deserve to wear clothes that let them move, play and express themselves. Leggings tick all the boxes - they’re practical, bold, and easy to wear. Whether your little one prefers dinosaurs or lightning bolts, monochrome or colour explosions, there’s a pair of leggings to suit.
