3. lululemon Softstreme High-Rise Pants
“I keep hearing incredible things about lululemon’s Softstreme material, so it may just be time for me to find out what the fuss is all about,” confesses Fashion Editor Abby Hepworth. “I appreciate that these have a longer inseam length, so they won't feel too short on my 5'9" frame, and really love the straight-leg silhouette, which feels a bit more posh than a classic jogger. Plus, the shock cord at the waistband is far more chic than a plain old drawstring.” Speaking of chic, Hepworth was right about one thing: lululemon’s premium Softsteme fabric delivers cozy vibes—thanks to the peach-fuzz soft texture that’ll feel silky-smooth on the skin—and boasts a four-way stretch that could steal the heart of anyone, including Associate SEO Editor Marissa Wu. “I never wear sweatpants, but I have my eyeballs glued to these as the perfect initiation pair,” she says. “[They] somehow feel a little more elevated than running out in my pajamas. And did I mention they’re made from recycled materials?”

5. lululemon Dance Studio Mid-Rise Pants
Meet the lululemon Dance Studio pants that caught the eye of Senior Editor Dana Dickey. “I just spied a fancy lady wearing these at a health resort and I was so impressed by how they managed to look so nature-chic. They hung like nice pants but could also give enough stretch for her to do a yoga or dance class. Plus, the hem has a drawcord that can be bunched up or released to look like a pair of what my mom calls ‘slacks.’ Also, the mid rise looks so fresh after all the high rises we have been served for so long now.” Indeed, the mid-rise waist and combo straight/cinched-leg design deliver a flattering and versatile fit that manages to remain totally zen.

I love that the super flattering flare silhouette has a zipper on either side that’ll alter the hem into a subtler straight-leg statement. Talk about ingenuity.

One female customer, who struggled finding sweatpants that flattered her curvy silhouette in the women’s section, notes that these “fit like a dream!

10. lululemon Softstreme Straight-Leg Cropped Pants
Who knew sweatpants could look so chic? This cropped Softstreme silhouette is great for those looking for a shorter inseam, or even petite gals who weren’t satisfied with the classic Softstreme’s 28-inch inseam. They have that same elevated shock cord waistband and sleek, comfy material, this time with a straight leg that’s designed to hit mid-calf, although the exact inseam length isn’t listed. Reviewers rave that the material doesn’t bag or stretch in the knees or bum, even after months of wear. “I could live in these pants,” writes one 5-star reviewer. “They are true to size, perfect for traveling or days you want to dress comfortable but still look chic.”
