Sweatpants Jeans Are the Comfiest Trend RN—Here Are 6 of the Best to Shop

It’s easy to see why Oprah and Mahomes wear these pants on repeat. I mean, you’d *never* know they aren’t made of a stiff denim material, and the track stripes add an extra touch of trendiness. (Psst: They are available without stripes ($198), too, if you want a pair that could easily be dressed up.) The 100 percent cotton terry material is machine-washable, too, and they’re designed with functional pockets. So while these pants are on the pricier side, I’d say they’re totally worth it, since they offer both comfort and function.

Madewell describes the airy material of these jeans as being drapey, soft to the touch and summer-friendly—and reviewers confirm that it makes them one of the comfiest options out there. “These are SO soft, and the wide leg shape makes them extra comfy. I honestly feel like I’m wearing pajamas when I have these on, but they’re still super flattering,” wrote one recent buyer. Not to mention, they come in *five* different fits/lengths, including standard, petite, short, tall and plus, so finding your perfect pair should be a breeze.

These jeans from Free People have earned hundreds of 5-star reviews, so of course, they earned a spot on this list. One reviewer shared that they’re “super flattering and comfortable,” and even went on to say, “I think they are my favorite pants I have ever put on my body.” They come in a bunch of colors, too, but only one inseam, so if you’re on the shorter side, you might have to hem them.

If you’re on the fence about this trend and want to try it out without breaking the bank, why not pick up this pair at Amazon that’s marked down to as low as $25 right now? These ones have a drawstring waistband that can be adjusted to fit as tightly or as loosely as you’d like, and they have a wide leg cut that shouldn’t feel restricting.

DL1961’s Aura fabric (which is a blend of cotton and Tencel lyocell) is specifically designed to feel incredibly lightweight and offer “unparalleled comfort,” which sounds just as good as sweatpants (or maybe even better!) if you ask me. While you can find the fabric in a ton of designs, from button-down tops to dresses, I’m partial to these wide-leg jeans in a medium rinse that feels ideal for the transition from winter to spring.

According to Gap, these drawstring jeans, which come in standard, petite and long lengths, are the brand’s “most comfortable denim,” thanks to their soft knit fabric and extra stretch. Plenty of reviewers agree, too, like this one who wrote: “Comfy and looks quite good for a casual day outfit—so good I bought two pairs!” You can totally buy them in multiples, too, since there are 11 different washes available and they all happen to be up to 50 percent off right now.
