Rooster PolyPro™ Leggings - Women’s
The ultimate multi-purpose base layer. Women’s Rooster PolyPro™ Leggings use hydrophobic, fleece-lined polypropylene for soft, next-to-skin warmth. A double-lined high-rise waistband adds comfort, minimal seams reduce rubbing, and discreet ankle stirrups keep the legs in place under layers.
What makes these leggings good
- Hydrophobic PolyPro™ fabric - feels remarkably dry even when damp.
- Brushed fleece inner - thick, soft texture traps warmth next to the skin.
- High-rise, double-lined waistband - smooth, supportive fit against the body.
- Minimal-seam legs - reduces pressure points under wetsuits and outer layers.
- Discreet stirrup construction - holds cuffs in place (can also be worn over the heel).
- Quick drying & stretchy - ideal for daily use and layering.
On-water performance
Built as a true base layer for cold-weather paddling, sailing and outdoor training. Wear next to skin under a LongJohn, neoprene pants or dry layer. The hydrophobic knit wicks moisture, the fleece interior adds warmth without bulk, and the stirrups stop ride-up during portages, step-backs and sailing.

FAQ
Do the stirrups have to go under the foot?
No - they’re optional. Wear underfoot to keep cuffs anchored, or over the heel if preferred.
Are they warm when damp?
Yes. Polypropylene fibres are hydrophobic, so the fabric feels dry quickly and stays comfortable even when damp.
Will they work under a LongJohn?
Yes - they’re designed as the next-to-skin base beneath neoprene LongJohns, wetsuits or dry layers.

Soft, warm and secure. The women’s Rooster PolyPro™ Leggings are the base layer we reach for across seasons - quick-dry comfort, a supportive waistband and stirrups that keep everything locked in place under kit.
