22 stylist-approved joggers for men and women to sport this spring
CNN
—
Loungewear ruled the trends last year, and if there’s one thing people can agree on it’s that we’d prefer to never wear real pants again. “While we all enjoy to dress up now and then, we have gotten used to dressing for comfort and ease,” explains celebrity stylist Kelvin “K.J.” Moody. Although comfort is in this season, unfortunately we can’t wear our favorite pajamas, leggings and cozy robes out of the house, but we can wear joggers.
What are joggers?
According to celebrity stylist Alyssa Sutter, “joggers are a slimmer, more tailored version of a sweatpant. Joggers typically have a higher rise with a drawstring waist, tapered leg and elastic bottom at the ankle.” You’ve likely seen the trend worn by your favorite influencers, trendsetters and TikTok stars, but don’t let that stress you out; it’s effortless for both men and women. For a casual look, Sutter recommends opting for a matching set, a basic tee, a chain necklace and your favorite sneakers.
Our fashion insiders believe joggers can totally be worn year-round — highlighting versatility as just one of the pants’ merits. “A good pair of joggers is constructed in a way that minimizes skin chafing seams and optimizes style, comfort and functionality,” says celebrity stylist Mickey Freeman.
With this in mind, ahead we’ve rounded up some stylist-recommended and top-rated joggers for both men and women you’ll want to update your loungewear collection with this spring.
