Reviews Summary
Shoppers keep buying these in multiple colours because they feel like luxe lounge pants but look smart enough to wear out. The soft modal-style fabric, wide waistband, useful pockets and cuffed ankles make them a favourite for yoga, travel, weekends, recovery, and everyday comfort. Many describe them as the pants they “don’t want to take off” — relaxed, flattering, and easy to dress up or down.
What Customers Love Most
- Buttery soft, silky fabric that feels “divine on the skin” and is often described as breathable, light and comfortable
- All-day comfort from the relaxed fit and soft wide waistband that doesn’t dig into the tummy
- Dress-up-or-down versatility: customers wear them from yoga to shopping, lunch, work, dinner and travel
- Flattering drape and cut that suits curvy, pear-shaped, apple-shaped and larger bodies without clinging
- Cuffed ankles and deep pockets: the cuffs help with length and travel, while the pockets are “deep enough to be useful”
Customers Say These Are Perfect For
- Yoga, Pilates, slow yoga, reformer Pilates and stretching when close-fitting leggings aren’t wanted
- Long-haul flights, plane travel and overseas trips where comfort and non-dragging cuffs matter
- Everyday errands, shopping, walking the dog, casual weekends and “popping down the street”
- Lounging at home, working from home, retirement life, Sunday slouching and even sleeping in
- Post-surgery comfort, sensitive tummies, pregnancy, hospital stays or anyone wanting a soft waistband with no pressure
Customer Feedback on Quality
- Customers repeatedly praise the “great quality” fabric, often calling it beautiful, luxurious, silky, modal, Tencel Modal or plant-based sustainable fabric
- Several reviews note they wash well, wash beautifully, are easy care, easy wash-and-wear, and in some cases need no ironing
- Construction details customers notice include deep usable pockets, a comfortable wide waistband, cuffed hems that stay in place, and fabric that drapes rather than clings
Customer Fit Feedback
The pant is designed to be loose and relaxed through the leg with a high, wide waistband and cuffed ankle. Many customers say their usual size fits perfectly, while others who sit between sizes or prefer less volume choose the smaller size. Shorter customers often appreciate the ankle cuff because it prevents dragging and can remove the need for hemming; taller customers around 176–183 cm generally say the pants graze the ankle, though a few wished for a tall or extra-long option.
What Customers Say
- "They feel just like my favourite PJs but look so good I can wear them anywhere."
- "These pants can take you from the yoga mat, to out for dinner."
- "I literally wear them constantly, wash them, then put them back on."
Frequently Asked Questions
Real answers based on customer reviews
Comfort
Are these pants actually comfortable enough to wear all day (or even travel in)?
Yes—comfort is the #1 theme across reviews, with many people saying they “live in them” and buy multiple pairs. Reviewers frequently mention wearing them from home lounging to errands and even sleeping in them because the fabric feels silky/“buttery soft.” They’re also repeatedly called out as ideal flight pants for long-haul travel due to the relaxed fit and soft waistband.
Based on 140 customer reviewsWhat’s the waistband like—does it dig in or roll down?
The wide/high waistband is repeatedly praised for being soft, flattering, and supportive without feeling tight. Multiple reviewers with a tummy, post-surgery sensitivity, or bloating say it doesn’t dig in and stays in place during movement. A few mention it can sit high on short-waisted bodies, but it can be comfortably folded down when needed.
Based on 28 customer reviewsIs the ankle cuff tight around the legs?
Most people like the cuff because it keeps the pant leg in place (especially for yoga and travel), but a small set of reviewers say it can feel tight and leave marks. One review mentions it may loosen with wear, while others find it “perfect” and secure. If you’re sensitive around ankles/calves, this is worth noting.
Based on 4 customer reviewsAre they good for post-surgery, sensitive tummies, or pressure around scars?
Yes—multiple reviews specifically mention buying these for recovery, hospital stays, or avoiding pressure on surgical scars. Customers highlight the soft, wide waistband and the absence of a tight elastic band as major benefits, while still feeling secure enough to move around. Several people say they ended up wearing them far beyond recovery because they were so comfortable.
Based on 6 customer reviewsFit & Sizing
Do they run true to size, or should I size up/down?
Most reviewers describe the pants as true to size, but a noticeable group says they run slightly generous and prefer sizing down for a more secure fit (especially for yoga/active wear). Several customers mention buying their usual size for a relaxed lounge fit, then choosing one size smaller for a neater waistband/overall fit. If you’re between sizes, reviews lean toward choosing the smaller size unless you want extra drape and room.
Based on 32 customer reviewsI’m short—will I need to hem them, or does the cuff help?
Many petite/short reviewers say the ankle cuff is a big reason these work for them, often avoiding hemming altogether. Customers around 150–157cm frequently mention the pants sit well because the cuff holds the length in place. A smaller number of short customers still needed alterations, so it may depend on your leg length and how you like them to sit.
Based on 16 customer reviewsI’m tall—are they long enough, or do they run short?
Tall reviewers are mixed but generally positive: several around 176–183cm say the regular length grazes the ankle or sits just above it. A few taller customers say they’d prefer extra length or wish a “tall/extra long” option would return, and some report they’re slightly short. If you’re tall and want full-length coverage, expect more of an ankle/7-8 style on some bodies.
Based on 10 customer reviewsPerformance
Are these good for yoga or Pilates if I don’t want tight leggings?
Yes—many customers specifically bought these for yoga/Pilates and call them a comfortable alternative to tights/lycra. Reviewers mention the fabric is breathable and easy to move in, and the cuffed ankle helps keep the hem out of the way during poses. People also like that they feel “loose but not wide-leg,” making them practical for classes and then wearing out afterwards.
Based on 45 customer reviewsDo they have pockets, and are they actually usable/deep?
Yes—pockets are mentioned often, with several reviews calling them deep enough to be genuinely useful. Customers report fitting a phone in the pocket and that the pockets don’t ruin the drape or overall fit. If pockets are a must-have for errands or travel, reviewers consistently rate these highly.
Based on 18 customer reviewsStyle & Versatility
Can I dress these up, or are they basically just lounge pants?
A lot of reviewers say they can easily be dressed up or down, wearing them to lunch, dinner, casual parties, and even work with a jacket or nicer top. Multiple customers mention pairing them with Dharma Bums tops (like the Athena) to create a more elevated outfit. The common theme is “PJ-level comfort” but still stylish enough to leave the house confidently.
Based on 38 customer reviewsDo the colors match the website photos (especially red, sage, and blue)?
Many customers love the colors and several say the red/cherry tones match the catalog well, but there are some mismatches reported. A few reviewers note sage appeared darker than expected, china blue looked more grey than blue, and one red/mulberry tone read more burgundy/brown-red in person. If you’re very particular about shade, expect slight variation depending on the colorway and screen settings.
Based on 6 customer reviewsMaterial & Quality
How does the fabric feel—lightweight, breathable, and suitable for summer AND winter?
Reviews frequently describe the Tencel/Modal fabric as silky, buttery soft, and breathable, with many saying it works across seasons. Some customers specifically say it’s not hot in summer and is comfortable in humid weather, while others like the slightly thicker “great weight” for cooler months and air-conditioned flights. A small number note it can feel a bit warm on very hot days, but rolling the waistband down helped.
Based on 22 customer reviewsWill the fabric show marks like oil spots or snag easily?
A small number of reviewers mention the fabric can show oil spots if something drips on it, and one customer reported a small snag and felt it wasn’t as durable as bamboo. Most feedback still rates the fabric quality highly, but it’s worth being mindful with stains and rough surfaces. Darker colors (like black) are mentioned as a practical choice if you’re worried about visible marks.
Based on 3 customer reviewsCare & Maintenance
Do they wash well—do they hold their shape over time?
Most reviewers report they wash beautifully, are easy wash-and-wear, and don’t need ironing. Several long-time owners say they’ve worn pairs heavily and repurchased after years, and others note they don’t go baggy at the knees or lose shape. A few shoppers mention concerns about long-term durability (waistband stretch or a snag), but the dominant feedback is positive on wash performance.
Based on 20 customer reviewsDo they dry quickly after washing?
Drying time seems mixed: most people call them easy care, wash-and-wear, and quick to maintain, but a few mention they can take ages to dry. This may depend on climate/humidity and how thick the fabric feels in certain colorways. If you rely on fast drying (e.g., travel laundry), line-drying may take longer than expected for some customers.
