Lower lumbar leggings may be worn in connection with various activities, including work, exercise, physical therapy, everyday leisure, and the like. The legging can have an open-ended torso section for extending about a user's lower lumbar region. At least a portion of the front of the open-ended torso section can include an elastic portion, while at least a portion of the back of the open-ended torso section can include a non-stretch fabric designed to help maintain the lower back in a proper position. One or more straps can extend from this non-stretch back portion and may be stretched to attach at front sides of the open-ended torso section. The leggings may be designed as full-length leggings, capris, shorts, or the like, as the specific length of the leg portions of the leggings does not affect the benefits of the lower lumbar support provided by the upper portion thereof.
