CRZ Yoga Sizing, Measured: Its XS Is Another Brand's S

Read this first — Match CRZ Yoga by the inch, not by the letter. Its XXS waist (23") is what several rival brands call XS, so a shopper who wears XS elsewhere often lands on XXS here — and XXS is the hardest size in the catalog to get, in stock on only 17% of colorways.

This is the first of a weekly look at one brand's numbers. CRZ Yoga earns the opening slot for a reason that has nothing to do with how the leggings feel: it is one of the few labels that puts a measurement on the front of every listing.

What does CRZ Yoga's size chart actually say?

The brand publishes one women's bottoms chart covering the whole range, in body measurements rather than garment measurements. Here it is, converted to nothing — these are the inches as printed.

Two details in that table are worth pausing on. The US column carries no numbers at all — it repeats the letters — so an American shopper gets no 4/6/8 anchor to check against a pair of jeans. And the chart is measured on the body, which the brand states plainly: measurements "should be taken directly on your body," waist at the narrowest point between ribs and hips.

Why does its XS feel bigger than another brand's XS?

Because it is. Put the CRZ chart next to the chart printed on a Bubblelime legging page and the ladders sit a rung apart at the small end.

Read down the hip column and the offset is almost exactly one size. A 35" hip is XS at CRZ Yoga and S at Bubblelime. A 39" hip is M at one and L at the other. Nobody is wrong here; they simply drew the ladder starting from different rungs, and the letter on the tag is doing no work at all.

Where are the gaps between sizes biggest?

A size run is not evenly spaced, and the uneven steps are where returns come from. CRZ Yoga's waist steps run 1.4", 2.2", 1.9", 2.0", 2.0" as you climb from XXS to XL.

Arithmetic on the two charts above, checked Sept. 8, 2026.

The 2.2" jump from XS to S is the widest gap inside the CRZ run, which makes a 25.5" waist the most awkward measurement the brand sells to. Bubblelime's run is metronomic at 2" the whole way, then opens to a 4" leap at the top, so its XXL is a genuinely different garment rather than the next rung.

What is the number at the end of every product title?

The inseam, in inches, and the brand does this consistently. We pulled the full public catalog on Sept. 8 — 1,060 listings — and of the 87 women's leggings in stock, every single one carried its length in the title.

Fourteen distinct inseams appear across those 87 styles. The 25" length carries the catalog — 35 of 87 in-stock leggings — and it is a seven-eighths cut on most heights, not a full length. Anyone who wants the hem at the ankle bone is shopping the 28" listings.

One quirk matters at checkout: length is not a dropdown. Each inseam is its own listing with its own colors, so "Butterluxe Pocket Legging 25''" and the 28" version are separate pages. Sixteen of the 43 base styles exist in two or more lengths; the Butterluxe Pocket and Yoga Origin leggings stretch across six, from 19" to 30".

Which sizes can you actually get right now?

Publishing a size and stocking it are different promises. Counting every color-and-size variant on those 87 in-stock leggings gives a clear picture of where the catalog thins out.

M is the safe size, available on more than four in five colorways. XXS is close to decorative: it is printed on the chart, it exists as an option, and four out of five times the color you want will not have it. Someone who translates their usual XS into a CRZ XXS is being pushed into the thinnest part of the inventory, which is a practical argument for taking the XS and letting the fabric do the work.

Does the brand offer plus sizes at all?

Not in any meaningful way. XXL appears on a handful of listings and none were purchasable on the day we looked, and the chart itself stops at a 32.5" waist and 43" hip. For comparison, the Bubblelime page above runs to a 35" waist and 45" hip, and brands built around extended sizing go considerably further than either.

Worth knowing before you get attached to a color: if your hip measures past 43", this catalog does not have a size for you, whatever the tag says. Our comparison of how five brands label the same body covers which ones actually stock the top of the run.

How should you use all this before you buy?

Three steps, in order, and none of them involve guessing a letter.

• Measure your waist and hip. Waist at the narrowest point between ribs and hips; hip at the widest point with feet together. Write both numbers down once.
• Find your row on the chart above, not your usual letter. A 37" hip is S here. If you sit between two rows, the wider gap is between XS and S, so that is where the tape matters most.
• Read the number at the end of the title. 25" is a seven-eighths on most heights, 28" is full length. Our inseam-by-height chart converts that into where the hem will land on you.

If your two measurements point at different sizes — waist says XS, hip says S — the waistband is the tiebreaker, and we walk through that decision in the between-sizes guide.

Is CRZ Yoga the same sizing as Lululemon?

No, and the comparison is structurally awkward: one brand sells letters and the other sells numbers. Use the inch columns. A 28.5" waist is CRZ's M whatever a numbered brand calls it.

Should I size up or down in CRZ Yoga leggings?

Neither by default. The chart is honest about the inches; what trips people up is carrying a letter over from another brand. Measure, then read the row.

Why do two of CRZ's own charts show slightly different numbers?

The bottoms tab lists XS at 24.4" and S at 26.6"; the dress tab lists 24.5" and 26.5" for the same sizes. Those are almost certainly rounding artifacts from a metric original — 24.4" is 62cm on the nose. A tenth of an inch will not change your size.

TL;DR — CRZ Yoga's women's bottoms chart runs XXS 23"/33.5" to XL 32.5"/43", roughly one rung larger at each letter than a brand like Bubblelime, whose XS starts at 23". Every in-stock legging prints its inseam in the title across 14 lengths, 25" being the house standard and 28" the full length. M is stocked on 86% of colorways, XXS on 17%, and XXL is effectively absent. Browse the rest of our size chart coverage for the brands we have measured so far.
