Drawstring Pants Are Your Post-Quarantine Sweatpants Solution

Listen, sweatpants have had a good run. A really good one! All of the people who have been working from home have finally gotten to explore what it means to work from the couch in comfy pants. And it was fun (really fun!) for about... two months. But as we transition back into working in the real world, it's about time our wardrobe starts transitioning, too.

We would not dare suggest you go straight back into wearing a suit every day. Hell, we are certainly not going to do that. But what we can do is dip into real clothes again easily. Start with something you've grown comfortable with—a drawstring—and other comfy elements like stretch, elastic, and colors that can get away with a few days wear at a time. (Thank you, black pants. You have done so much for us.)

The pants we are looking to invest in have those elements, but still look sharp. The athleisure game has been around long enough to finally get into the comfortable workwear clothes and we are ready for 'em. Plus, these drawstring pants look good. Trousers too tight? Suits need tailoring? Leave those guys in the back of the closet for now. These comfy workwear drawstring pants are fun to wear and look sharp as heck. Here are our 10 favorites.
