Many fond memories of their bright, fun durable clothes for my kids when they were young. If they are anything like them, I'm sure they're great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369922 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 19:18:13 +0000 Marmee 1369922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you! &nbsp;I'm going to order these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369914 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 19:07:31 +0000 cheryl 1369914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute and I love the color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369715 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 14:51:01 +0000 Aziraphale 1369715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jackiec and Marmee -- about sizing -- I always go for the right fit at the waist, and hope for the best with the rest of it.&nbsp;My hips are 34" and my waist is 27.5", so I ordered a size S. This means&nbsp;that there is extra room in the hips and seat, which, for me, is great. I don't like sweatpants that cling to your butt and show pantyline. &nbsp;Based on your measurements, Marmee, I'd order the size S.&nbsp;</p> <p>Actually, these pants&nbsp;fit me pretty much like they are shown on the model (in the pic I posted), only of course on me they are full length, not cropped! On the model they don't look super tight.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369572 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 04:32:06 +0000 catgirl 1369572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute!

Glad you found some that work so well. Had to laugh at "Who doesn't need orange pants?" Right! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369451 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 00:43:31 +0000 Marmee 1369451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd like to order these but am curious about the sizing. &nbsp;The size chart shows XS as for 36" hips and 26" waist. &nbsp;My hips are 35" and my waist is 27" (but very high…nowhere near where the waistband will be). &nbsp;I wear size 26 and 27 jeans, depending on the fit. &nbsp;I don't need details about your own shape, just wondering if you would recommend the XS or S based on your purchase.</p> <p>Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369430 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 23:57:57 +0000 Mia 1369430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mine are&nbsp;about 10 years old from Aritzia when they stocked nice heavy cotton ones. &nbsp; Desperately need replacing. &nbsp;I also live in Lulu land... &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369395 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 22:43:01 +0000 jackiec 1369395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey I'm a Vancouverite too!! Why didn't I put that together before? Yep living in the land of Lululemon...</p> <p>Was there a ton of duty on these sweats? How are they for size? I actually recently picked up a black pair from H&amp;M that I'm pretty happy with (for around the house), but the ones you link seem nice and thick.</p> <p>I am trying to hold off on shopping for october but what the heck....I can look...</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369351 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 20:41:01 +0000 Aziraphale 1369351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jackie, I'm the opposite --&nbsp;I almost never buy sweats! I used to wear Lululemon because they are (well, were) great quality. I had a couple of pairs of thick cotton sweatpants&nbsp;that lasted nearly a decade. I didn''t wear them outside the house, so they wore out slowly! But I went back to Lululemon to replace them last year, I found I didn't like any of their new stuff -- neither the fabrics nor the styles. I went back several times over the course of the following six months, and continued to be underwhelmed. Plus, I've never liked the aggressive way their sales associates leap on you. The Lululemon epicentre is where I live, but&nbsp;I'm unlikely to go back there in a hurry.&nbsp;I'm glad I've found a good alternative. <br />:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369169 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 15:30:23 +0000 jackiec 1369169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute! I am guilty of picking up random sweats, loving them in store, cutting the tags, and then realizing they aren't that great....this is a good recommendation </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369166 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 15:23:58 +0000 christy 1369166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute!

May have to pick up a pair in black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-sweatpants-ive-ever-owned#post-1369154 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 15:01:52 +0000 Aziraphale 1369154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For those of you who are in search of new loungewear: are these the cutest sweatpants ever, or what?&nbsp;I was on a hunt for new ones recently, mostly to use for kicking around the house,&nbsp;but also possibly for early morning soccer games. I order all my kids' pjs from Hanna Andersson and have always been impressed with the quality of the stitching and the fabric. Most of the women's offerings are all kinds of frumpy, but I saw these sweatpants and decided to give them a try. I don't normally order online for myself, so this was a big deal!&nbsp;</p> <p>Well, they are as comfy as pjs, beautiful thick french terry cotton, wash really well,&nbsp;and cute enough that I can wear them outside. I was so impressed I was moved to write a review (also something I don't normally do!) and I ordered a second pair. I now own a black pair and and orange pair. Who doesn't need orange pants?</p> <p>I suspect these pants would work better on straighter shapes. One commenter said they "cling to every nook and cranny", but they don't at all on me, they're quite roomy in the hips and seat --&nbsp;probably because I have a regrettable lack of junk in my trunk. And of course on me they are full-length, not cropped. I highly recommend them! </p>
