Who buys it, and why

High waisted leggings refers to leggings that sit at or above the natural waist, a staple of activewear and casual wear. People search it to compare fabrics, brands, fit and prices. In practice, shoppers buy them for the gym and daily wear, and the category is crowded with large brands. Google Trends interest varies by season and region, so a rise may reflect a short-lived event rather than lasting demand; related searches and outside sources help separate the two before anyone builds around it.
