HanesWomen’s EcoSmart Fleece Petite Sweatpants, Open Bottom Sweatpants, Petite, 28.5''

Standard straight leg sweat pant. I'm 5' 4" & 150 lbs, I like a loose fit so the Large was perfect. I had ordered XL but waist was too big. I kept them & added a drawstring. Comfortable to lounge in during cold months.

These are basic open leg sweat pants.What I like: Comfy, long, soft and true to color and size. I normally wear a medium so that's what I ordered (5'6", 135lbs). They fit big (but not overly) so are very comfy without me having to worry about shrinking (they've been through 1 wash and are still big). I have the purple and the color is as pictured. They are long on me - so drag a bit, but I like it so when I sit they don't ride up and still keep my ankles warm.Note: I read the description and was aware that they don't have pockets -- but not sure I mind too much as the hips sit smooth and don't bulge which happens in my other sweatpants that do have pockets. Also, I know they didn't have a drawstring. So they are loose on me but comfortable and don't fall down (I wear them on my hips so they are kinda perfectly big for me). However, if they were any looser, I'd need a drawstring so that's something to keep in mind (if your weight fluctuates).Keep in mind, they're not flattering, but are any sweatpants really? I wanted comfortable, soft and warm - and these fit the bill (not too heavy and not too light).

Pluses and minuses in these pants depending what you want to do with them.I bought a medium. I'm 5'7' tall and weight approx. 160. Normally I would wear between a medium and a large depending on mfg., material, etc. so I winged this purchase. I actually made a lucky mistake in buying the 'petite' which was not labeled in the purchase description or a choice at check out! BUT that wound up being okay since I have a short rise from crotch to waistline so not big extra bunches of extra material to have to turn down at the waist or worse yet alter.Good points.....nice material, washes well, feels good inside. Nice cut to the pattern. Tighter through the thighs growing a little bigger from the knees down to ankle and plenty wide enough through the calf/s (of course that would depend on your own personal calves).Bad points ....material shrinks maybe a 1/4-1/2" inches, so be prepared because pants will feel tighter after first putting them on BUT they will stretch somewhat as you wear them.. WAIST band is soft and loose - not snug but comfortable.! NO SIDE SEAMS so if you needed or wanted to take them in you'd have to fuss to get the seam in the right place. One piece construction with only a cuff/crotch/cuff seam. Makes for a nice smooth side without a seam but almost impossible to let out UNLESS you make an insertion to alter if you need a bigger size or even taking them in. Cheap fast finish at the cuff but easy enough to rip out with a razor blade and make shorter if you needed to. Overall a quick factory made product with no frills and potential problems depending on how your body is built. If you decide to keep just make sure you have at least 1/2" to spare through the thighs!I will buy again but I'm considering going up a size because of the shrinkage making them a bit on the snug side through the thighs/hip area AFTER WASHING - I do not have big thighs either. I just pray the waistband is not too loose in the larger size. I might have to alter that if necessary but over all happy with the pants and way easier and cheaper than going out and buying the fabric and going through the hassle to make them which I could do but I don't want to be bothered!

Update: I washed the sets in hot water and put in the dryer. They did shrink but only a little bit. Next time I will wash the pants in hot water but not the tops. The tops now fit and I don't want to make them any smaller. The pants are wearable if I roll the top over. So if you buy these and they are not a good fit, return and go down a size. As another review remarked, if they fit and you want to wear them, wash them first (cold water) because the amount of lint that comes off will fill the palm of your hand.I ordered a blue set (sweatshirt and pants) and a gray set. I received them today and there were two problems. First of all, I received three blue items and one gray. I looked back at my order and I did submit the order correctly. Second, the pants are HUGE. I bought my regular size, the same that I purchased in the past, and I can't believe how big the pants are. But here is the problem. I need them right now so I am not returning them. I'm washing them in hot water and hope that they shrink, and one set is going to be a mismatch. What is also odd is the pieces are made in two different countries based on the labels and the packaging was a little different on each one.In general, the price is great and the items are functional. The open leg style is preferable to elastic on the ankle. Would I buy them again? Maybe but only if I was prepared to return them if needed.

I don’t know if there is anything better than sweat pants! Another great Hanes product. Soft and cozy but breathable materials that feel very natural to the touch. Washes great. They are a little longish. I’m 5’9 and if I don’t keep the waste strings tied tightly they will sag and drag the ground . +A buy
