Wide Leg Pant

Who says wide-leg pants are just for formal occasions? With SoftStretch fabric, these pants feel like pajamas but look totally put-together. The built-in SPANXsmooth™ waistband offers light core compression, gently smoothing your silhouette without sacrificing comfort. An adjustable tunnel drawstring ensures a no-dig, personalized fit, while the wide-leg design adds a chic touch to any outfit.

Strategically placed back V-seaming boosts your booty, and no center seam means you can say goodbye to any concerns about camel toe.


How to Care for SPANX SoftStretch Pieces

Here’s how to keep your SoftStretch pieces looking and feeling like new:

  • Machine Wash Warm: Use a gentle cycle to protect the fabric’s softness and stretch.

  • Skip the Fabric Softener: Trust us, you won’t need it.

  • Tumble Dry Low: High heat isn’t SoftStretch’s best friend.

  • Low Iron If Needed: But honestly, wrinkles are rarely an issue.

  • Do Not Dry Clean: SoftStretch is all about keeping it simple.

Like Sweats, But Better

Think of SPANX SoftStretch as sweats’ cooler, more sophisticated cousin. You get all the cozy feels you love, but with added features that make it perfect for the gym, the couch, and everywhere in between. From moisture-wicking fabric to smoothing technology, SoftStretch proves that comfort and class can coexist.
