Holiday Weekend Open Thread

Something on your mind? Chat about it here.

If you've been around long enough, you may remember when the idea of jeggings was a laughable late-night-TV ad. Then skinny jeans happened, and jeggings became much more common and acceptable. Still, the idea of sweatpant jeans is a little… offputting. They couldn't possibly be good, right? Everyone would know…

Well, the word on the street is that these sweatpant jeans are EXCELLENT — comfortable, stylish, and undetectable as sweatpants. However, they are priced accordingly: rag & bone offers a variety of “washes” and cuts for between $175-$225.

What say you, readers? Have you bought a pair of sweatpant jeans? Would you buy these rag & bone jeans?

I do like the look of the pictured jeans, $225 at Nordstrom, but check out rag & bone for the full selection. Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and Saks also have pretty wide selections, and the pants are also available in limited styles through Rent the Runway's subscription service and on sale at Nordstrom Rack.

Other absurdly expensive but really comfortable pants: Spanx's Air Essentials wide-leg pants and the Vuori joggers.

Psst: stay tuned for an update on sales happening this weekend!
