When it comes to jet-setting in style, cozy is key — and that’s especially true when you’re looking for the best pants for traveling. Gone are the days of skinny jeans and other circulation-cutting bottoms — at least for now. Until jeggings come back around (let’s hope it’s more than a few trend cycles away), we’re enjoying the extra leg room that loose and comfortable bottoms have to offer, especially for travel.
Whether you’re planning a road trip or hopping on a plane, we’ve rounded up the best pants to wear while weaving through terminals or driving long stretches. From slacks and sweats to cargos and everything in between, some of our travel-friendly favorites include Frankie Shop (seen on J Lo), Ugg’s Selena Gomez-loved silhouette (yes, they also make pants!), and Hailey Bieber‘s Wardrobe.NYC collaboration.
1. Aviator Nation Bolt Sweatpants
We present the ultimate airport bottom, sweatpants. Hayden Panettiere, actress, was recently seen at the airport in the Aviator Nation Bolt sweats. Although they are almost sold out now, you can still get a similar style from the relaxed brand. They have an internal drawstring tie, cinched collars, and a fashionable lightning bolt print.
