Sweat Pants You're Allowed to Wear in Public

Who doesn't want to look great and be utterly comfortable simultaneously? I mean, women now get to wear leggings anywhere and everywhere--and they're considered very fashionable. So what do men get? Well, there are several designers now coming out with pants that are cut and styled like a trouser or jean, but made of jersey or fleece! These drawers come in a wide range of prices.  Try not to think of them as sweats. You're investing in trousers that just happen to be made out of a really comfy fabric.

There is a great Men's blog called The Style Blogger that recently featured a great pair of fleece trousers by Woolrich. Yes, these are sweats.

Then I was checking out the newest photos on Men's Club and found this guy wearing fleece cargos!

Both of these men have clearly gone to great lengths to look nice, fashionable, and well pulled together even though they're wearing sweats! I decided I better find some options out there for my readers! Where can you get these fantastic pants? Well here you go. (And what a great thing to wear for Thanksgiving! They'll expand with your turkey filled self!)

First up is a luxury pair of jersey trousers by Lanvin available on Mr. Porter for $995. Throw on a tee and blazer and you're done! Note the flexible waist band in back. the jacket will cover this, but if you aren't wearing one, make sure you pair these with a pullover sweater to hide the back.


Can't drop a grand on sweats? Get this great pair for $69 at Yoox! Cut and styled to look like a jean with a twist--a subtle sweat band at the bottom!



Y-3 Yohji Yamamoto partnered with Adidas to create these fun colorful trousers. An athletic cotton/poly blend with a reverse seam down the front and back that give the effect of a pressed pant! Available at Bluefly for $153.

And I've saved the best for last! Leave it to Alexander McQueen to create the coolest, most funky pair of jersey trousers out there! Mr. Porter offers them up for $715.



There are a couple features to these pants that make them work. They aren't baggy and there is no drawstring (they button or zip up just like the rest of your pants). A trim fit keeps them looking polished. Time for you to step out in comfort. And style.
