Looks good, feels amazing. Look closely: we cut this smart wide-leg pant with sharp pleats at the front and a trouser crease, but opted for an easy elastic waistband. Cut from a midweight ponte fabric we love for its softness, stretch, and beautiful drape. High-Rise Wide-Leg: High-rise. Fitted through waist and hip, relaxed thigh with a wide leg. Full length. Elastic waistband. Belt loops. Front and back pockets. Unlined.
