It’s denim season! While we adore the look of jeans, they aren’t always the most comfortable pants to wear when you’re bloated, running errands or dining out with friends. If you find yourself wishing you could just wear sweatpants to your cold-weather outings, we feel that!
To help you live your dream (and ours!), we gathered 12 jeans so stretchy you might think they’re lounge pants. These picks are skin-soft and lightweight for all-day comfort. Whether you’re into wide-leg, straight-leg, flare, high-rise, mid-rise or boyfriend jeans, or some combination of the above, there’s a stretchy new pair with your name on it! You’ll look effortlessly chic while you do what you do.
