I don't know about you, but drawstrings and elastics have completely replaced zippers and buttons in my closet right now. I can't be bothered to wear anything remotely stiff or fussy, but there's a whole world of cute pull-on pants that don't include sweats or leggings. Wide-leg linen pants, long silky trousers, cotton cargos, high-waisted culottes, velvet flares—the options are practically endless. And there's nary a zipper or button in sight.
Below, I've rounded up my favorite pull-on pants from our readers' favorite retailers, including Nordstrom, H&M, Free People, Other Stories, and Shopbop. Of course, there are plenty of super casual options to wear at home, but others look incredibly polished and put-together. In fact, some of these look exactly like office-ready trousers minus the stiffness of buttons and zippers. Scroll down to shop my favorite pull-on pants right now.
