While many months of quarantine were spent in PJ’s and sweatpants, the end is in sight. Time to upgrade to comfy joggers. Not quite ready for jeans yet? These relaxed cozy pants are the next step in integrating back to real clothes. Perfect for lounging, running errands, or even traveling (again one day), joggers are the new athliesure wear must have. Check out these 5 comfy joggers to live in right now.
Vuori Performance Joggers
My personal favorite at the moment. With soft as butter material and a slim athletic fit, I reach for them often post workout. Available in 14 colors. ($84) Coupons generally pop up on a first order. “Haven’t taken them off since they arrived” says one customer.

Athleta’s Trekkie North Jogger
The knit waistband makes these super easy to wear. While originally designed for outdoor hiking and walking, they are great for hanging around as well. ($89) “Amazingly versatile and very high quality”- Athleta wearer

Zella Restore Soft Pocket Joggers
A step up from sweats, these joggers are super soft with great pockets. Perfect for light workouts and running errands. More of a capri style length. ($69)

Old Navy’s live in joggers
More of a baggy legging look with fold over waistband. Banded cuffs and terry cloth material make these joggers an Old Navy favorite and a great deal at $29. Available in 8 colors and patterns. Over 700 reviews from wearers keep them at the top of the favorites list.

Brooks Shakeout Pants
Like the old school track pants style? These super thin shakeout pants are perfect for spring and cool enough for summer. The tapered leg and zippered ankle give them a streamlined look. “Nice enough to wear out and about but comfy enough to lounge in at home”.

Less bulky than sweats and a little more “dressed up”, post workout joggers are the must have pieces of athliesure wear for 2021. A great way to get back to wearing “real clothes” again and a versatile transition piece for spring.

I love my shakeout pants! And I got my first pair of joggers this winter. I wear them all the time! I am not at all ready to wear jeans again and I don’t think I will be going back to them any time soon!
I know! Jeans are stressful-who needs that?!
I love my Vuori joggers!! I don’t take them off willingly, lol!
They are seriously the best!
I’ve been seeing the Vuori joggers everywhere! I won’t even tell you how many pairs of joggers I’ve got in the rotation right now. So comfy!
The vuori’s are amazing I love them and reach for them all the time
I actually do not own any!!
I put on my running clothes and stay in them so I can easily walk, hike or run when I have a work break.
I can’t wait to wear real dressy clothes and go out to restaurants, shows, concerts, events!!
Yes it will be fun to wear dress up clothes again-soon I hope
Those all look so comfortable! I’m all about comfy pants and rarely wear jeans even in “normal” times.
Comfy is the way to go!
Love this, Deborah, because sometimes I don’t want form fitting leggings. I may be a little obsessed with joggers. 🙂
they are so great!
I’m like Darlene – I don’t have any joggers!
But they look incredibly comfortable! I think the Old Navy ones are my favourites.
I think you need a pair asap!
Wait, I don’t want to transition back to real clothes! I want to wear joggers forever. There are some great ones here- thanks for posting this.
they are so comfy aren’t they?
These joggers are so cute! I can’t even remember the last time I wore jeans! I can’t believe I used to get dressed up every day for work. 🙂
Things sure have changed in the last year!
I love joggers! I’m a fan of Athleta’s joggers – I keep hearing about Vuori’s and will need to check them out!
Athleta’s are great and you will love the Vuori’s. I want to wear them everyday
I love Hollister joggers, their Gilly Hicks line is the best ever
I have not tried those!
I love all of these. I basically live in joggers. I do put on jeans when I go out in public, but when I’m home, I’m in my comfy pants.
Comfy pants are the way to go!
I’m totally late to the jogger party. Since I’ve been working on-site, since the beginning, I have been in jeans & khakis almost non-stop LOL I guess I need to up my lounge wear game…
They are ridiculously comfy!
I need a new pair of joggers. I have an old pair from Target that I love, but they are getting a little ragged. I’ll have to check some of these out.
You will love these picks!
I love jeans! However, for the past year I’ve worn sweatpants since what is the point of dressing up if I am working from home. These are all great and I wonder if I can get away with wearing them for work with some flats. 🙂
Oh I definitely think you could get away with wearing some of them to work!
Ooo! These all look sooo cozy! I have the pair from Old Navy and they’re fab!
have heard they are good those are the only ones I have not tried myself
I don’t own any joggers but I do have a favorite pair (in 3 colors) of lounge wear Capri pants made of light weight material and so comfy and they can be dressed up. They are from Target.
I will be checking out a couple of these though.
let me know what you think!
Just added some more to my list to try! I was curious about the old navy ones too!
People seem to like them those are the only ones I have not tried
I wear jeans but these joggers look so fashionable and comfortable!
so very comfy!
