We love pajama sets. We adore loungewear, too. So, there’s no surprise that we enjoy wide-leg pants for all-around, flattering comfort.
Coming in so many varieties, these versatile bottoms are perfect with a crisp top to head back to work in (much like your favorite dress pants — minus the scratchy material) or, contrastingly, to head off to vacation with.
They’re unstoppable, unbeatable and unmatched.
That said, it’s time to say goodbye to those too-tight trousers and pants that don’t bring you joy. We did the digging to find the best wide-leg pants to refresh your wardrobe with so you can enjoy the airy flowiness of this style all year round.
With the 28 best wide-leg pants we rounded up, you’ll see why these bottoms should enter your wardrobe — and stay put.
