Zaggora Hotpants ~ It has been a very long winter and spring here in Atlantic Canada. It has been difficult to muster up the motivation to get off the couch, quit surfing the net, quit my evening snacking and STOP watching so much television. It is now or never, it is time to shed those unwanted winter pounds and get moving.
Thankfully, a pair of landed on my doorstep at the perfect time…it was definitely a case of serendipity and the impetus to finally get moving!
I received the Below-the-knee HotPants™ 2.0 Medium, they get your legs hot, from waist to knees! The fabric is a little unusual and reminds me of those little thermal sleeves you slip over a cup to keep the contents hot. Basically, that is what these pants are doing, they get your legs hot, all the way down to below your knees!
Celu-Lite Technology™ is a patent pending, multi-layer fabric technology that harnesses the body’s natural heat during exercise to help you burn more calories.
Key Targeting:
- Your hips, bum, thighs and knees.
- Thinner, lighter and more flexible than the originals
- Reinforced taped back rise seam
- Curved seams contour your figure along your natural curves and have a fantastic slimming effect.
Fit & Feel:
- Curved flat-lock seams follow and flatter your body’s curves
- Light, flexible compression fit supports your body and creates a smooth silhouette
Science:
The Zaggora Hot line of clothing was tested by ETScience based at the University of Southern California in the US between September 2012 and January 2013 and at The University of Brighton in the UK between September 2011 and August 2012. The line, which is made with patent pending Celu-Lite technology, was shown to:
- Increase the metabolic rate during exercise by up to 18% vs. a standard garment when Zaggora clothing was worn for at least 30 minutes during exercise
- Be safe during high-intensity aerobic exercise since core body temperature did not exceed acceptable exercise-induced elevations.
- The Zaggora Hot line of products has been extensively tested in both the US and UK for effectiveness and safety.
As well as the medium length pants I received in black, Zaggora also offers pants in a variety of other colours and lengths, hot tops, fold-over hot pants, bras, tees and more.
My Thoughts:
On a recent one hour walk I felt the pants preformed very well. They were stylish, very comfortable to wear and felt supportive without being constrictive. They did a great job of slimming and holding “things” in.
When I returned from my walk the pants were dry to touch on the outside and didn’t feel wet on the inside. However, when they were removed my legs were soaked with sweat, as were the inside of the pant, so they really was a lot of heat being generated! My only complaint is the noise the fabric makes when walking, but after a while you don’t really notice it.
The pants are simple to care for; I just washed them in cool water with a little mild, liquid soap and hung to dry. You can also machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water and again, allow to drip dry.

I’m intrigued….although I already have a problem with those parts of my body sweating profusely in warm weather even when wearing loose fitting shorts. I get soaked from the waist down. So you didn’t feel that your legs were actually wet till you removed the pants? Was there any chafing or rash issues?
Legs felt completely dry JoJo, and had no clue they were so wet until the pants were removed. No chafing or rash issues either.
