Pants that don’t fit well can ruin a whole day, right? At PureWow, we’re dedicated to finding versatile pairs that are not only fashionable right now, but also comfortable enough to wear no matter where the day and night takes us. We’ve tried the most comfortable pants available today and come up with five favorite categories: sweater pants, wide-leg pants, barrel leg jeans, joggers and of course, the stretch Colette pants from Maeve. (That last design is a staff obsession for editors of all shapes and sizes, including plus and petites, putting it in a league of its own.) Here are the pairs to shop now, before they sell out.
