There's nothing more uncomfortable than feeling the waistband of your jeans dig into your skin. When it's finally time to take a break from our denim (sorry!), we turn to the pants in our closets that offer a little more give. Whether that choice is a cool pair of Vetements track pants or leather leggings, thanks to the undying wave of athleisure, comfy bottoms come in all styles, colors, and fabrics. For a more sophisticated option, a pair of silk trousers can be a good substitute for our most beloved jeans. Ahead, we rounded up five styles of comfy pants all women should own.

Leggings

This lazy-girl must have is now, also, a street-style staple. If Gigi Hadid and bloggers are rocking them at Fashion Week, then you know they've been approved by the fashion community. With updated styles like leather and zipper detailing, leggings aren't just for the gym anymore, they're for the front row too.

Tailored Trousers

Whether you prefer the cigarette shape or something more flared on the legs, trousers are a comfy alternative to jeans. The light-weight material lets your skin breathe while the fit around the waist remains snug.
