Reviews Summary

Shoppers keep coming back to these pants because they nail the “smart but insanely comfortable” brief—easy enough to lounge in, yet polished enough for the office or dinner. The fabric gets constant praise for being buttery soft with a flattering drape and “flowiness,” and many mention they end up wearing them on high rotation. Fit feedback is mostly positive, with a recurring note that they run a bit large and the length can be long for some heights.

What Customers Love Most

  • Very comfortable feel (often described as “so comfy” and “the most comfortable pants”)
  • Soft/buttery fabric (“buttery soft”, “super soft”, “feels like pyjamas”)
  • Versatile styling—dress up or down for work, shops, restaurant, day or night
  • Flattering cut with a nice drape/flow (“drape beautifully”, “soft drape”, “flowiness”)
  • Work-appropriate look (“smart enough for the office”, “beautiful work pants”, “perfect for work”)

Customers Say These Are Perfect For

  • Office and workdays (including busy health/physio/pilates or practitioner settings)
  • Travel days and long flights when you want comfort without looking sloppy
  • Dinner/going out when you want an elevated wide-leg look
  • People who want a “high rotation” pant that can do lounge-to-street
  • Hotter climates—customers mention the fabric feels “cool” and “light”

Customer Feedback on Quality

  • Fabric repeatedly described as “fantastic quality,” “lovely material,” and “beautiful fabric” with great “flowiness”
  • Wash performance noted: “Wash well.”
  • Practical design details get noticed—“decent sized pockets” and pleats that “elevate the look”

Customer Fit Feedback

Most customers report: runs large (many size down), with some saying true to size

Multiple reviewers recommend sizing down, especially if between sizes (e.g., AU 10–12 choosing the smaller size; one downsized from Large to Medium for a more flattering fit). A few call the fit “true to size,” but the more frequent guidance is that they “run large.” Length can run quite long—several customers mention hemming/shortening, while others say the length is perfect for them.

What Customers Say

  • "“Feels like im wearing my pyjamas at the office.”"
  • "“Legit haven't taken these off since I got them, oops. They're a dream”"
  • "“Best pants - lounge, work, whatever!”"

Frequently Asked Questions

Real answers based on customer reviews

Comfort

Are these pants actually comfortable enough to wear all day (even like pyjamas)?

Yes—comfort is the most repeated theme in the reviews. Many customers describe them as “so comfy,” “buttery soft,” and even say it feels like wearing pyjamas to the office. Several people mention they end up wearing them constantly because they’re that easy to live in.

Based on 22 customer reviews

Style & Versatility

Can I really wear these to work and still look polished?

Most reviewers say they’re smart enough for the office while still feeling relaxed. Customers call them “beautiful work pants,” “dressy enough for dinner,” and say they elevate the look (especially the pleats) compared to other wide-leg styles. In short, they’re repeatedly described as comfortable-but-work-appropriate.

Based on 15 customer reviews
Do they drape well and look flattering on the body?

Yes—many customers mention a “beautiful drape,” “soft drape,” and a flattering cut. Several reviews say they hang/fall nicely and look great dressed up or down. If you’re buying for a wide-leg silhouette, the drape is one of the most consistently praised features.

Based on 10 customer reviews
Do the pleats make a difference, or are they just a small detail?

Customers who mention the pleats say they noticeably elevate the look compared to other wide-leg versions. One reviewer said the pleated version is “everything” and lifts the style, and another specifically said they “love the pleats.” If you want a slightly dressier wide-leg pant, the pleats are viewed as a plus.

Based on 3 customer reviews

Fit & Sizing

Do these run true to size, or should I size down?

Feedback is mixed, but multiple reviewers specifically recommend sizing down because they run large. One customer swapped from Large to Medium and found it more flattering, and others who wear 10–12 said they should have bought a Small. A smaller set of reviews also say the fit is true to size, so if you’re between sizes, sizing down seems to be the common tip.

Based on 6 customer reviews
Are they too long—will I need to get them hemmed?

Length is a recurring note: several customers say the pants are “quite long” and will need shortening. One reviewer at 165cm took up the hem (by the width of the existing cuff) to get the perfect length with flats. If you’re petite or prefer a shorter break, plan for hemming.

Based on 4 customer reviews

Performance

Are these good travel pants for long flights?

Yes—multiple reviewers bought them specifically for travel and long-haul flights and highlighted how soft and comfortable they are for sitting for hours. Customers also mention they can be dressed up or down while traveling, so they work beyond the plane as well. Comfort and versatility are the main travel benefits called out.

Based on 4 customer reviews
Do these have pockets (and are they actually usable)?

At least one detailed review calls out that they have “decent sized pockets,” suggesting they’re practical rather than purely decorative. While pockets aren’t mentioned by many reviewers, the feedback that is there is positive. If pockets are important, this is a point one customer explicitly praised.

How does the fabric feel—soft, light, or more structured?

Reviewers consistently describe the fabric as very soft (including “buttery soft”) with a light feel and a flattering drape/flow. People also mention the material looks elevated enough for work and dinner while still feeling lounge-level comfortable. Overall, the fabric is repeatedly praised for softness and “flowiness.”

Based on 12 customer reviews

Care & Maintenance

Do they wash well, or do they feel delicate?

One reviewer explicitly says they “wash well,” and others repeatedly describe the fabric as great quality. There aren’t widespread complaints about washing or durability in the reviews provided. Based on the limited wash-specific feedback, customers seem happy with how they hold up after laundering.

Oh my goodness I didn’t think I could love a pair of pants more than my original Dharma Bums wide length pants but the wide length pants with pleats are those pants. They are everything but just elevate the look a little more. Thanks Dharma Bums, the fabric, the style are wonderful.

These pants are gorgeous! So flattering with a lovely drape and comfortable to wear. I’m usually a size 10 and the Small fits perfectly. I’m 165cm tall and while I could have got away with the length, I decided to take up the hem by the width of the existing cuff, and it sits perfectly wearing my white flats.

    Great pants for health practitioner

    These pants are lovely material, cool for hotter climates and flexible. I’m a health practitioner and they are so good for work. I am an Australian 10-12 166cm with a bit of a mum tum and got the smaller size which was a good idea they have a lot of flow and stretch. .
