Unisex Essential Straight-Leg Sweatpants

Wide-leg sweatpants in a soft, midweight cotton blend with a flat elastic waistband, a long drawstring and legs that fall in one clean line from the hip all the way to the floor. The knit is smooth with a fine, even texture and the hem ends open and uncuffed. The cut is wide and relaxed, which gives them a drape that feels closer to trousers than gym pants. They come in four colors. Pull them on and you look easy and put together, in about the time it takes to find your shoes.

We picked this one for the drape. The waistband is flat and elastic with a long drawstring that hangs down the front, the legs fall wide and straight from the hip and the hem ends open at the floor. The surface is smooth and soft with a fine heather texture in the lighter colors. The back is clean with a flat waistband and no pockets in sight, so the whole look comes from the line of the leg.

It comes in Oat Gray, White, Flower Gray and Black. Black is the sharp, easy one in the flat photos, Flower Gray is the heather classic, Oat Gray is the warm, soft neutral in the lead photo and White is the crisp, bright one. Wear them with a fitted tee and chunky sneakers, a cropped hoodie and slides, or a bodysuit and boots. Add a small bag and some sunglasses and you look like you are walking through the airport on the way to a long weekend.

Pick this when you want sweatpants that look a little more put together. The wide leg, the soft cotton blend and the drawstring waist give them a casual, easy feel that works with sneakers, boots or slides. The midweight knit holds its shape, the long leg gives you a clean line and the elastic waist stays comfortable all day. Choose your color and wear them on repeat, from the morning coffee run to a late dinner out.
