Why do women's sweatpants suck so bad?

I am so frustrated! I just want some regular comfy sweatpants. Guys have the best ones - straight, semi wide legs, nice waistband, even pockets. And they don't cost $50 a pop. Girls sweatpants are too tight, not comfy, no pockets and always way too thin!

Am I just looking in the wrong stores? Help!

I have a pair of nice fleece pants from Old Navy and they were super cheap- no pockets though.

My favorite sweatpants of all time are the Victoria's Secret "boyfriend" sweats. They are so cute, comfy, thick, pockets, everything... but they are expensive. The semi-annual sale is going on right now though so you may be able to get them cheaper!

Why do women's sweatpants suck so bad?

I bought amazing sweatpants from Walmart of all places. I'm short and they actually carried short, regular and tall sizes. Nice and warm, wide leg (I hate gathering at the ankle) and super cheap. I bought three pairs and they've all held up - this was fall 2014.

Found a great pair at Costco - not sure if they are still carrying them as I bought them a couple months ago. Thick fabric, so soft and fit perfectly - snug in the right places and loose in the right places.

I got the Victoria's Secret Pink Boyfriend sweatpants for Christmas and no joke, they are life-changing!!!! I would never take them off if I could. They're nice and baggy, long, super warm and cozy...I ended up ordering a second pair because I love them so much.

Can you link to the exact ones you have.
I have been looking at VS boyfriend sweats but I feel like there are SOOO many options and I am not sure which ones are the best.

They're really all the same just different logo designs. If you're on the VS Pink website under Sweats and you click on any of the Boyfriend pant icons, they're all the same pant/fit, just in different colors with different logos on the pants. I have them in heather gray and that marled gray.

Also, the VS Pink thermal sleep Henley's look freakin adorable with the sweatpants. Perfect combo. It's a comfy, warm, but kind of sexy shirt (I have the one that has 4 or 5 buttons on the top).

Why do women's sweatpants suck so bad?

Thanks cause I thought it was me being picky that I cannot find a pair of sweatpants!
I wanted pockets, not overly baggy, a lil hip hugging... Cannot find any!
I bought a pair of gap ones without pockets a few years ago and loved them, they never made them again.
Its been years and I cant find a great pair.

While the VS look cute, Im 36 years old Im not walking around with logos all over my sweatpants. I want plain sweatpants. Im not gonna hang out with my 13 year old niece who loves pink and were both walking around in the same sweatpants LOL

I'm 30 and I usually DGAF, but I know what you mean! They are comfy and I also look like I'm 12 so I think I get away with it... for now. But I would buy probably 1,000 more pairs if they didn't have the logos everywhere.

I LOVE my PINK sweats but yes they are expensive. They last for years so they're worth it to me.

I have cheap Hanes sweatpants from Target that cost like $7-- they fit all your requirements but they don't have pockets.
