Best Joggers For Women

Give your leggings a rest day.

Joggers are an activewear MVP! Consider them the sweet spot between sweatpants and leggings, and you can pretty much do any exercise in them. Not only are joggers great for workouts, but they are super stylish and can go anywhere, from errands to brunch to an airplane. (More on how to dress them up in a bit.)

So knowing the diff between lounge-y and workout-y joggers is key when shopping for your ideal pair. The latter are usually thinner and come in performance fabrics. “They should feel like a second skin and be soft with some stretch."

As for styling joggers outside the gym? Wearers choice! A few go-to ‘fits include matching them with a cropped long sleeve shirt or tee (bonus points for color coordination) or a not-too-technical-looking sports bra. For a city-sleek vibe, she adds, “You can pair a satin bomber jacket or an evening jacket over joggers and wear them with heels for nighttime".

With so many ways to rock joggers, they're a no-brainer to have on hand. So if you don't already own a pair of joggers (or you feel inspired to invest in a few more pairs), I've done the cozy legwork for you. From lounge-worthy to workout-ready, here are 15 of the best joggers worth investing in now.

                    BEST LIGHTWEIGHT JOGGER

                    Soothfeel

                    These high-waisted joggers are made of a buttery-soft nylon/spandex material that is super lightweight and feature tons of storage options. There are two deep front pockets, plus a zippered back pocket for more secure stashing.

                    And one reviewer noted they are comparable to pricier brands. "The best joggers ever! These are the perfect dupe for the lululemon align joggers. These are affordable & so comfy. I’m obsessed and will be ordering more!"

                    And another noted they held up during a tough workout. "These joggers are incredibly comfortable. I wear them to work out or to lounge! They are more like a legging material, stretchy and soft. They are squat proof and flattering. Highly recommend!"

                    Sizes: XS-XL

                    2
                    BEST TERRY JOGGER

                    Yummie

                    If you want to mix it up when it comes to fabric, these synthetic terry joggers will deliver a super soft feel thanks to the polyester, rayon, and spandex material. The adjustable drawstring cinches the waist so it's juuust right. Plus, the tapered leg is just as flattering for couch hangs as lunch with your workout buddy.

                    One happy customer wrote: "These joggers are buttery soft, light, & breathable. I’m obsessed with them. Definitely worth it!"

                    If you prefer a relaxed fit jogger, this pair from Amazon Essentials has the perfect amount of roomy give. They're lined with fleece to keep you extra warm.

                    They also have serious range in color. There are a whopping 31 different shades of the rainbow, so you're bound to find your favorite color or five to add to your wardrobe).

                    One thing to note: reviewers say they run big. "Great lounge pants. So comfortable. I am 5’2”, 125 lbs. I usually wear a small. I got a size small in these pants. I easily could have gone to XS without them being tight. So if you want something more flattering, size down. If you want to do nothing but lounge in your comfy pants without a soul in the world seeing you- get your normal size. Either way, they will be comfortable."

                    Alfresco exercisers know the importance of utility in the great outdoors. We’re talking rain-proof, windproof, and sun-proof fabrics. Ideally, with some style-factor to them, too—a tall order! This pair of quick-dry joggers is up to the task and checks all the boxes. Plus, they come with a protective UPF 50+ treatment.

                    One reviewer that gave them five stars wrote, "With the wide elastic waist band, and the tie these stay put. The zippered pockets allow me to keep my vehicle keys, money secured, and the side cargo pockets with Velcro closures keep my cellphone safe and clean. Most of all they are COMFORTABLE, and wash up really nice."

If you require more convincing, they’re cut from a light, sweat-wicking fabric ( a mix of cotton and spandex) and come in tons of fun colors, from aqua to marigold. The tapered fit is just right, too, with enough room to avoid the look and feel of leggings. Plus, the elastic waistband and adjustable draw cord let you fix them at any time for a customized fit.

                    One reviewer shared her obsession. "I thought everyone was exaggerating with all of the amazing reviews. I was wrong. The moment I put these pants on I knew we would be soul mates. So comfy, yet durable, & I don’t feel over exposed wearing them to run errands after yoga."

                    BEST FOR CYCLING
                    Under Armour Meridian Joggers
                    Under Armour

                    This cropped (and super quick-drying thanks to a mix of nylon, polyester and elastane) jogger is an MVP in the saddle. They come in a pretty plum color or classic black, so you can pick the best shade for you. The straight leg fit is a great option for indoor cycling classes or bike rides, with minimal bagginess.

                    “These are my favorite joggers to cycle in because of their amazing sweat-wicking fabric,” says Mindy Sartori, instructor for CycleBar GO. “The fabric is soft, lightweight, and doesn’t get too loose while working out."

                    And one Amazon reviewer noted, "They fit like a jogger but with legging material. I was worried they would be thin & unflattering, but they are amazing! The quality is great & style perfect! I ordered the black right after I received them."

                    Sizes: XS-2XL

                    BEST HIGH-WAISTED
                    Dragon Fit High Waist Workout Joggers
                    Dragon Fit

                    According to 10,000+ reviews (many of which are paragraph-long raves), these high-waisted joggers fit very similarly to leggings, with a high-rise waist that smooths and supports. The fabric is a mix of polyamide and spandex, which has a four-way stretch and super soft feel. A note: if your ideal fit is slouchy, many reviewers suggest sizing up.

                    One Amazon reviewer had amazing things to say about them. "I must say these are the MOST comfortable pants. So stretchy, but hold their shape. So much more affordable than other popular name brands. I own both Viori and Lululemon and these are very comparable. The pockets are deep so phone and keys don’t fall out when you sit down."

                    BEST FOR HIKING

                    Eddie Bauer

                    Eddie Bauer’s gear assortment is full of made-to-perform pieces, including this pair of polyester-fleece joggers. They'll keep you warm during windy outdoor activities, or during a chilly hike. And, they're truly made for the outdoors: They have a StormRepel DWR finish that repels any moisture and sun-protective FreeShade UPF 50+.

                    One reviewer noted, "I live in the Alaskan interior. These pants are a must for intense cold. I wear them to run errands and under my snow bib when playing in -25 temps and they keep me snuggly warm. But they’re not so toasty that I can’t comfortably wear them around the house, too. The pockets are deep and functional, a rarity for women’s pants. Overall, a great purchase. 10/10 would buy again."

                    One reviewer on Alo noted, "These are the most comfortable sweatpants I own. I just want to wear them all time! The fabric is soft, cozy and warm and they drape just enough to give them a sense of style. Love them and tempted to buy in another color."

This pair from Bandier’s collab with Sincerely Jules is the so-cute version your workout drawer needs. They also have great storage: two front and one rear zipper pocket to keep your stuff safe. One thing to keep in mind: some shoppers noted that they are a bit short.

                    Nike

                    Okay, these technically fall into the sweatpant category, but they’re nipped in at the ankle like joggers and wildly comfortable. The design stands out whether you slip them on over biker shorts or leggings when you need a warmer layer, or live your best lounge life by pairing them with a crop top and sweatshirt. The fabric is a mix of cotton and polyester, and they have a great drawstring so you can tighten and loosen as needed.

                    One reviewer wrote, "These are great jogger/sweatpants. They are fleece lined and if your tall these will be short on you. I’m 5’4 and they were a perfect length. Waistline was perfect I ordered a small. I love the way they fit. More for a colder time of year ...they are not summer pants, but will definitely order another color!"

                    One reviewer noted, "If you’re looking for a mainstream dupe, these are it...I’ve been looking for a cute pair of what I call travel athleisure pants for quite some time but didn’t want to pay the astronomical price they normally are. The stitching on these is on point, the material is quite stretchy and lightweight. I’m seriously in love already. I want 5 more pair but will settle for the one."
