I, uh.
I don't even know what to think about these. link At first glance, these Dress Pant Sweatpants look like exquisite black wool trousers. Which they are, except for the wool part. Now look closer; better yet, put on a pair.
We made ‘em from high-end French terry, which has a subtle heather texture similar to fine suit cloth. So they look sophisticated — and feel slumped-on-the-couch comfy like your favorite pair of old sweatpants. View Quote Some in here are going to get a real kick out of the brand name as well. |

NYC, SF, and Austin hipsters are buying these by the armful to go with their new iphones.
|
|
OH YEAH!
Finally, something I can team with my tuxedo t-shirt...classy baby. |
|
Lulz.
I wouldn't be surprised if this catches on. People seem to be getting more and more casual in their manner of dress. Seems like a logical extension of the existing trend. |

I think they cost that much because they are made in San Francisco.

I'd wear them if my legs would fit in them (which they won't lol)

Will will go nicely with my pajama pants that look like jeans.

These are the kind of thing that if anyone ever found out you would be the laughingstock of the office for months.

I've got a pair of those, or something very much like them...made by Ecko. Except for a tiny logo under the belt loops, you'd never know they weren't dress pants...but comfy as fuck. I wear them when I'm doing "dressy casual", but I dig them a lot.

I always wanted to sew a complete suit together and hide a zipper in a seam. A 'jumpsuit'

Before you guys jump on the bandwagon, know this: It will be a hipster trend. Guaranteed.

I wear them when I'm doing "dressy casual", but I dig them a lot. link please.. Wish I could provide one, I found them at TJ Maxx a few years ago, and I've looked online for them since and haven't found anything. Probably an issue of not knowing the model/terminology of what they are, but they might have been a limited production or something odd. They look very similar to the ones in the OP's link tho.

I love mine, I wear them to the nice strip clubs that won't let me wear my regular sweatpants.

Wake up, put on dress sweats, go to the gym, go to school, go to work, have dinner with friends, go to bed.. All while in the same pair of pants. Looking professional and feeling functional the entire time. No time wasted changing clothes.
Will be ordering 4 pairs of these in addition to my tuxedo t shirts. |

I wish they would bring back the Bugle Boy cargo sweatpants from the 80's.
