Our Story
Established in 2014 by a passionate husband and wife duo, Chris & Addie, at their kitchen table with a baby on a hip, SweetLegs quickly garnered a dedicated following for their ultra-comfortable, patterned leggings, and body-positive ethos. With an empowering Independent Distributor Program, and worldwide shipping from our online store, SweetLegs is dedicated to promoting self-confidence and individuality. Embracing the motto "Self confidence is the best outfit, rock it & own it"®, the brand remains devoted to its core values of comfort, community, and confidence, ensuring every SweetLegs wearer feels part of an inspiring movement, no matter the occasion.
How it began
2014
Our Story Begins
After almost a year of planning, sourcing, and overcoming frustrations, SweetLegs was born. We spent every moment and dime, taking a leap of faith against all odds. We opened our first location in June, quickly expanded to a larger space by August, and added a 10,000 sq ft facility in October. By December, our first retail store opened to meet the overwhelming demand from our community.
2016
Signature Leggings & Expansion
In 2016, we launched our signature leggings, featuring exclusive sizing with improved fit and fabric. To support our growth, we moved to a larger warehouse and opened a beautiful new retail store in Lake Country, showcasing the SweetLegs brand.
2017
Theo's Legacy
In June 2018, we started Theo’s Legacy Fund in memory of our son Theo Pafiolis, who tragically passed away from hypoplastic left heart syndrome at just five days old. Through sales of Theo's print leggings, we raised $54,760 for multiple charities and organizations. Theo's legacy forever left its mark on the SweetLegs family, inspiring us to continue our mission with compassion and dedication, reminding us of the profound impact we can have on our community.
2021
Product Expansion
From 2021 onwards, we launched a dozen new products each year, continually innovating and expanding our offerings to keep our customers excited and engaged.
2022
Enhancing Customer Experience
During these years, we focused on enhancing the customer experience. We streamlined our operations and added interactive features like a size guide, return portal, and ID onboarding portal. We also introduced new styles beyond leggings, ensuring our customers had a seamless and enjoyable shopping experience.
2024
10th Anniversary and Ambassador Program Launch
In April 2024, we celebrated our 10th anniversary with the launch of the SweetLegs Ambassador Program. This milestone marked a decade of creating products that inspire and build confidence, and the new program empowered our community to share their love for SweetLegs, further strengthening our brand’s presence and connection with our customers.
Community Giving
In 2017, the founders of SweetLegs experienced the heartbreaking loss of their newborn son, Theo. To honour his memory, they introduced a commemorative print legging and pledged to donate $5 from every sale to support families staying by their palliative children’s side. This heartfelt initiative has provided much-needed assistance to these families and has enabled SweetLegs to contribute to additional organizations such as Mama's For Mama's, Cops For Kids, and various other charities. By celebrating Theo's memory, SweetLegs continues to bring hope and support to countless families and communities.
