We all know and love sweatpants. But we also know that sweatpants aren’t stylish and in fact sort of frumpy. What to do when you want to be in comfort but want something more stylish than sweatpants? Meet joggers. Joggers typically have a tapered leg and ankle for a modern look
From Bed To Brunch
The best part about joggers is you can feel confident wearing them outside the house. I’ve already worn a pair to bed, waking up the next morning in them, and leaving them on to run errands. Think of joggers as a looser fitting pair of leggings that my fiancé and many other women wear….perfect for any casual occasion, from bed to brunch.
Not All Joggers Are Equal
I own a few pairs of joggers and like any loungewear, there are some differences. As a skinny guy, joggers look great and I feel confident in them because they usually are more tapered. However, I recently ordered a pair from Psycho Bunny that had a straight leg cut to them. I tried them on and even though they were comfy, I looked like I was wearing Harem pants. Unless you’ve got a really athletic build and double down on leg day, I’d recommend making sure the pair you select are tapered.
In addition, like all loungewear, make sure the fabric is comfy. I ordered one pair from Amazon that, while they are tapered, are as uncomfortable as old school sweatpants.
My Favorite Pairs – Made for Both Men & Women
The first pair of joggers I ever wore is my all-time favorite. Peter Alexander, makes amazing ones for both men and women. Not only are they fitted, but the fabric is so soft. On some of their pairs, the crotch is closer to a drop-crotch, leaving plenty of room.
