If you've found yourself ditching your favorite jeans in favor of slouchier alternatives, you're not alone! Staying home has made being comfortable a priority, which of course influenced the way we dress. Easygoing matching sets have replaced traditional work suits, and we're not mad about it.
So we've invested in sweatpants, trousers and relaxed slacks that will take us through long work days in ease. From sleek everyday black pants to refined rib-knit styles, there is the perfect pair for every occasion. Check out our top picks so you can feel like you're lounging from day to night.
