Cool Girls Are Ditching Capri Leggings for This Trending Alt This Spring
Confirmed: these are the cooler capri pants It girls will be wearing in spring 2026.
No, I don’t believe capri leggings have had their moment just yet—but in spring 2026, I have a strong feeling the most stylish dressers will be gravitating towards a cooler alternative with far more enthusiasm. Still finishing at that chic calf-grazing length, capri track pants swap skin-tight silhouettes for something altogether more relaxed, and I don't think it will be long until they're taking off en masse.
Sportier, easier and inherently more laid-back, capri track pants are already becoming a go-to among the celebrity style set. Just this past weekend, model Amelia Grey stepped out in a cropped pair of Adidas x Willy Chavarria track pants in a deep black with red detailing. Keeping things tonal, she styled them with a long-sleeve black top, oversized sunglasses and a sleek tote, finishing the look with simple black ballet flats—a pairing that feels primed to dominate London wardrobes this summer.
Whilst capri leggings can sometimes skew polished—especially when paired with heels or shirting—there’s something inherently effortless about a track pant. Worn with ballet flats, the combination is already gaining traction, but don’t be surprised to see the look evolve with flip-flops and low-profile trainers as the season unfolds.
