Pants That Move With You, Not Against You
Some mornings you just want to get dressed and get on with it.
Slip these on and the waistband gives where you need it, then stays put all day.
The rib runs through the whole pant, so the stretch is in the fabric itself — not just the band.
That's why they hold their shape instead of sagging by noon.
Soft as your favorite loungewear.
Cut like real clothes.
Waist band stretches from 24 to 36 inches on a size S — it gives without gaping
✓ No more fighting your waistband
The stretchy drawstring band moves when you sit, bend, or reach. No digging in, no red marks at the end of the day.
✓ Soft as loungewear, looks like real pants
Ribbed rayon-blend knit feels like your coziest sweats but reads as put-together. Wear them out and nobody guesses how comfortable they are.
✓ 40.5 inches of clean, wide-leg drape
The leg falls long and loose from the high waist. It skims instead of clinging, so you're not thinking about your hips all day.
✓ 5 colors that work with what you own
Pick one or build a small rotation. Each one pairs with the tops and sneakers already in your closet.

Frequently asked questions
Does the drawstring have to be tied, or does the band hold on its own?
The elastic band holds on its own. The drawstring is there if you want a snugger fit at the waist or a little extra security when you're moving around.
Are these opaque enough to wear without anything underneath?
Yes. The ribbed knit is dense, not sheer, so it wears on its own the way regular trousers do.
Will the wide leg drag on the ground if I'm shorter?
The inseam falls long by design. If you're under 5'4", they may pool at the ankle — many women wear them with a slight cuff or a low heel, or have them hemmed an inch or two.
Do the ribs flatten out after a few washes?
No. The vertical rib is knit into the fabric rather than pressed in, and the spandex helps it spring back. Wash cold and hang dry to keep it at its best.

Use the fit finder next to the size selector for a recommendation in a few seconds, or see the full measurement charts below.
Every product page has a fit finder next to the size selector — three questions, one recommendation, a few seconds. These charts are for anyone who would rather read the numbers.
How to measure
- Bust / chest. Around the fullest part, tape level, arms relaxed at your sides.
- Waist. Around the narrowest part of your torso, usually just above the navel.
- Hips. Around the fullest part, roughly 8 in below the waist.
- Inseam. From the crotch seam to the floor, in the shoes you'll wear the trousers with.
Measure over the underwear you'd normally wear, not over clothing. Keep the tape snug but not tight.

How our pieces are cut
- Dresses are cut true to size. If you are between sizes, take the smaller one — most of our dresses have ease through the waist.
- Coats and jackets are cut with room for a knit underneath. Take your usual size; size up only if you layer heavily.
- Knitwear is relaxed by design. Between sizes, take the smaller one unless you want an oversized look.
- Trousers and jeans run true to size. Between sizes, take the larger one.
- Shoes run true to size. If you have a wide foot, take half a size up.
