Marketing - Textiles / Clothing / Fashion
Spanish term or phrase: aporten sujeción
How do you say "aporten sujeción" in this context please?

"Estos leggings son perfectos para todo tipo de clientas, tanto para aquellas que buscan patrones
actuales como las que solamente quieran prendas cómodas y que les aporten sujeción"

I have translated this whole text as follows, but I am not sure if it is correct for marketing.....

"These leggings are perfect for all kinds of customers, both for those who are seeking current
design patterns and for those only seeking comfortable tight fitting garments."

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

form-fitting
Explanation:
Although it may initially seem duplicitous, rather than mention that the garments provide support, a marketing text might opt for something more euphemistic like this, which avoids any overt mention of flab/floppiness/droop requiring support, which might put off potential customers.
