These 5 Shoes Will Make Sweatpants Look All the Chicer

Our team has been fortunate enough to be working from home during the current self-quarantine period. As a result, we’ve been experimenting with a range of work-from-home 'fits. If there’s one staple we’re basically all wearing right now, it’s sweatpants—especially joggers.

While we covered a smattering of fashionable jogger-outfit ideas recently, we wanted to dive a bit deeper into the trend by zeroing in on the specific shoe silhouettes that can make sweatpants look even chicer. You know, in case you’re in need of inspiration for a cool WFH look or another sweats ensemble down the road. To highlight the shoes in question, we rounded up some of the freshest outfits fashion people have been wearing over the last few months.

Without further ado, keep scrolling to check out the best shoes to wear with sweatpants, and if you're shopping at the moment, shop the inspired outfits below, as well.
