PureWow Vice President of Editorial, Candace Davison, calls herself a “veritable TJ Maxx-inista,” but even she was won over by lululemon’s Daydrift trousers, which come in just under $150. True to the brand’s roots in activewear, what makes the Daydrifts some of the most comfortable pants is the fabric. Think sweat-wicking, four-way stretch, breathability, roomy fit and fabric shape retention. Plus, instead of wrestling with a zip fly, a hidden interior drawcord lets you customize the waistband.
“The pants move with you, so you’re not constantly readjusting or fidgeting during a conference call. My biggest pet peeve with wide-leg pants is that they’re often made of a lighter, flimsier material, and swish between your legs as you walk, making you feel like you’re doing a ‘70s Bee Gees strut. Saturday Night Fever, this is not,” she reports in her review. “That heft also makes these pants more durable; after more than three months of wear, there’s not a snag or a sign of pilling, and they do. Not. Wrinkle. Even when haphazardly thrown into a duffle bag or left in a pile of laundry for days. That alone is worth applause: No need for an iron or steamer? Ever? YES.”
