The 30 Best Sweatpants for Women, Because Comfy Is *Still* Our Uniform
Back in March, we thought we'd only be wearing leggings while social distancing and working from home for a few weeks, max. Fast-forward and we're now accustomed to our new daily routines, including our very relaxed 9-to-5 uniform as we continue to ride out this pandemic. If you didn't jump on the sweatpants bandwagon in the spring, now is your moment to stock up on all the comfy lounge pants before they inevitably all sell out. We're giving you a head start with these 30 pairs of sweatpants—from understated and cozy to trendy and Instagram-worthy.

1. Out From Under Jenny Tie-Dye Fleece Jogger Pants
We tie-dyed nearly every white item of clothing at the beginning of summer and realized some things are best left to the pros. Like these pastel joggers that don't look the slightest bit homespun.
Available in sizes XS-XL
2. Alo Muse Ribbed High Waist Sweatpants
Super soft cotton, ribbed fabric and a wide drawstring waistband make these high-waist joggers perfect for walking the dog and sitting on the couch.
Available in sizes XS-L
3. Everlane Lightweight French Terry Jogger
Heads up: These French terry joggers from Everlane tend to sell out quickly. So, don't miss your chance to snap them up while they're still in stock.
Available in sizes XXS-XXL
4. Girlfriend Collective Classic Jogger
Yup, everyone's favorite sustainable athleisure brand now makes sweatsuits. The number one reason we love these (aside from the fact that they're made from a mix of recycled and organic cotton)? You can create a set that matches your taste by adding on a classic crewneck, a cropped crewneck or a hoodie. Cozy, indeed.
Available in sizes XXS-6XL

These sweatpants are reminiscent of vintage varsity warmup pants—and that's exactly why we love them.
Available in sizes XS-L
6. Richer Poorer Fleece Sweatpant
I totally swear by these sweats, which are just the right length for my 5'2" frame. Plus, the slim cut of the legs, the tie-closure waistband and the slightly cropped silhouette are actually flattering, which makes me feel good about my body (and, you know, my life in general).
Available in sizes XS-XL
7. Lululemon Bound to Bliss High-Rise 7/8 Pant
Want something a little more freeing? These wide-leg sweatpants are made from a soft, stretchy modal fleece fabric and feature a slightly cropped fit for even less restriction. (You know, for when you decide to throw an impromptu dance party for one.)
