Breaking news: catstronaut workout pants are now officially a thing. But not just any catstronaut pants: Werkshop catstronauts!
Behold their majesty!!
I have to admit, I have a soft spot for space and a soft spot for the occasional oddball piece like this. I also happen to think that Werkshop makes one of the highest quality and best value printed bottoms on the market right now, and I’m excited that these are not only cool and fun, but also functional since they have Werkshop’s crafts(wo)manship behind ’em. Basically, these are pushing all kinds of “need” buttons in my brain.
These crops are a special collaboration with online boutique Ghost and Stars. They’re being sold exclusively on Ghost and Stars’ site, so even if you’re a serious Werkshop fan, you might not’ve known these existed.
If the cat isn’t your thing, there’s also special edition galaxy crops rendered in beautiful cool tones and featuring all sorts of rad space things.
Currently, both of these crops are available for pre-order (no ship date has been announced just yet). Get catstronaut here, or galaxy over here. And of course, you can always opt for Werkshop’s classic galaxy print crops on their site. I caved and ended up scooping up both special edition pairs! If you want them, you should probably act sooner rather than later, because I get the impression that there’s not a ton of these out there!
Btw, prepare for an onslaught of reviews from my Black Friday haul! Besides these, I also got some Titika, yet more Alala, a little Albion, and some Nesh too! Basically none of it is here yet, but once it starts rolling in, I’ll be plugging away at taking pics and writing posts. :)
Love! And FYI for the fit on Werkshop tights: super small. I’m a 6 in Lulu and a Werkshop Medium fits but is SUPER compressive. Thanks for introducing me to brand. I think I have five pairs of their tights now (thanks in part to their Black Friday sale. Got mine in the mail today.)
Yup, agree there! The XS fits me nicely as a lulu 2.
Thanks for the heads up! I love anything galaxy so I preordered. I regret returning my lulu milky way WUC last year. I thought it was you on the pics then realized it was Anna Akana. lol
Heh, yes, I also don’t usually wear heels with my Werkshop. :)
Haha! It was mostly the one with the sneakers. Her posing is similar to yours. But yes, the heels gave it away. lol
I am very tempted by those space (non-cat) ones! At one point I ordered the galaxy leggings from werkshop but I did not like the orangey brown colors (which were may more orangey brown in person). These ones look much better!! As for the other pair… I dunno about that ultra-odd catstronaut. Why couldn’t it be a dogstronaut?!?! I think my cat allergy predisposes me to find all cat images creepy. Yikesies!
I ordered two werkshop tights during the sale… the new zealand ones which I have been lusting over since the beginning and also the grey full length ones made of the recycled soft material. I’m curious how I will like those.
I can’t wait to see all your upcoming reviews! The best part is that since I will know you got a huge discount on everything, maybe I will simply be able to enjoy reading about them without buying every single one for myself (I HATE buying things when I know I could have gotten it cheaper only a week or two earlier… it’s an excellent deterrent!)
Heh, I’m definitely a dog person, but something about the cats are just funny. If it was a dog I’d be all over it too. :P I’m curious what you thing of the solid grey too!
Cat astronauts?! And new space prints?! I’m in love! I will have to enjoy these vicariously through you since I’m definitely too old to wear cat astronaut leggings. :) I haven’t gotten my Michi order but Revolve came quickly so I’ll be posting reviews too once I can get some pictures in good lighting. Unfortunately, the Solow & Alala from my Revolve order didn’t work out for me. :(
Awww, that’s too bad on both counts! As much as I’d like to encourage it, I’m not sure I can picture you in the catstronaut pants, lol.

And now I’ve outed myself as a cat lady
Oh…my…god. I just ordered the carrying case!
Wow. That is simply amazing.
ARGH you’re such an enabler!! Just ordered the Galaxy ones which look gorg. And I SWORE I needed no more printed crops… but space sh*t… and Werkshop… and PayPal moneys! Ugh. Hated all of Lulu’s SE stuff and didn’t go Black Friday crazy, so that’s oooookkkkkk isn’t it?! I’m excited to get these!!
I think these are a reasonable replacement for the lack of lulu SE things. ;) Mine are marked as shipped but there’s no movement on the tracking info… Impatient. :P
Super cute!
OT, just received my Alala order. The rolldown sweats (too wide in waist but too tight in legs) and shadow dolman hoodie (not a great look on me) did not work out, but I am absolutely in LOOOOVE with the blanket jacket. It is thicker and more luxurious than I imagined. The blocked crop in water and clutch tank in black are also keepers, which will be my workout outfit tonight. I normally wash them before wearing, but I can’t wait lol. By the way, I am 32C and sized up from XS to S in the tank since XS was skin tight and S gives some extra room.
Thank you for the info! So glad you like the blanket jacket. The sweats are a tad looser in the waist so I can see how they wouldn’t work out. I hope I can try the clutch tank soon, but I’m trying to taper off the spending right now. Maybe I’ll wait for a new color in the spring.
Ordered both!! Can’t wait!! My main BF shopping is from Werkshop this time. Thank you for introducing such a nice brand!! Oh btw, I just got Varley Sofia tight in navy from BF shopping, it is 2 inches bigger on the waist than Upside leggings on same size(in my case, medium) and same material content.(70% polyamide, 30% elastine) I am debating whether exchange it to small or just return. It is really nice color though. I am so looking forward to reading your BF haul review!!
Oh thanks for the sofia tight info! A couple people have mentioned they run big, but it helps to put it in context of another pair I have. As much as I would’ve liked to try them, I just don’t think they’re going to work. Ah well. Hope you love your Werkshop haul! :)
