One of the hottest new trends continuing to sweep the streetwear market from season to season is the appropriately named ‘tapered sweatpant’; more commonly known as joggers!
Sweatpants have not only become synonymous within streetwear culture, but have also made their mark in high fashion. To encourage both independent boutiques and the more commonly known retail giants of the world, brands have created various new shapes and silhouettes based around these everyday garments, making them a staple part of people’s wardrobes.
Unlike the pants of the past, ‘tapered sweatpants' enable you to display your chosen footwear, with common choices being the likes of Bass Weejuns, Plimsolls, Sneakers, Boots and everything in between, making a feature of an individual’s personal footwear choice.
With elastic at the feet and a slim line styled taper from top to toe, sweatpants are designed to fall just above the ankle enabling all aspects of your chosen footwear to be displayed in all its glory. This is why the simple jogger of the past should not be underestimated.
Here we take a look at some of the new shapes and styles available from some of our favourite brands such as Stüssy, Diamond Supply Co, Route One, Chocolate and Crooks & Castles, showcasing some of the key features and details that separate each pant from the next.
Stüssy Training Fleece sweatpants offer a soft cotton construction and feature a staple cuffed ankle, button closure rear pocket and signature Stüssy detailing on the front leg. Complete with banded waist for a snug fit and angled side pockets, this clean and simple sweatpant offers bags of style as expected from a street wear heavyweight.
A progression from our previous classically tapered pant, Route One Premium Sweatpants offer a combination of both style and functionality like no other. Cut from a high quality French Terry cloth for superior comfort and hand feel, these pants follow the same sleek lines and stylish taper of our existing sweats whilst offering a little extra leg length and premium quality details.
The introduction of a newly crafted Nylon waistband, YKK zipper pockets, ribbed cuff hems, artificial fly and subtle Route One tonal branding all combine to create a quality finish to an already bold yet clean silhouette.
Marking 20 years of being one of the most influential skateboard companies around, and as part of their birthday celebrations, Chocolate have created these special edition fleece sweatpants featuring a mineral wash dye effect, an elasticated ankle cuff and waist band and Chocolate screen print down the outside leg. These comfy, relaxed fit sweatpants are perfect for a lazy day or as stylish lounge wear.
All sweatpants featured are available online now.
