What is PEOPLE Tested? Photo: People; Erin Johnson; Madison Yauger; Alyssa Brascia Whether you’re catching a flight, running errands, or practicing yoga, a good pair of joggers will take you far. They’re comfortable and slightly less slouchy than a traditional sweatpant, so you’ll be cozy and cute wherever you go. We’ve tried so many pairs of joggers ourselves, so we rounded up the ones that have stuck around despite frequent wear. Here are the best joggers for women, straight from our own closets.

Relaxed joggers are ideal for lounging or cool, laidback street style, whereas more tailored fits might work better for running, yoga, and other forms of movement. Singla says you can also easily dress up a pair of tailored joggers with a pair of sneakers and either an oversized blazer or trench “for a smart, casual look.” If you’re looking for a pair of comfy joggers to lounge in, we recommend the Saxx 22nd Century Silk Jogger. The Cozy Earth Bamboo Jogger is best for yoga and other low-impact workouts. Fit In addition to how you’ll wear your joggers, Singla says it’s also important to look at the fit, as joggers come in a variety of styles ranging from slim-fitting to oversized and baggy. If a tailored jogger is more your style, she recommends “a narrow pant leg that tapers at the ankles and has a mid-to-high-rise waistband” — like the Cozy Earth Studio Jogger and Bamboo Jogger. Conversely, for a baggy fit, we recommend the Lunya Reversible Joggers or Vuori Boyfriend Jogger. Length When shopping for joggers, Singla says to look for styles that have a close fit around the ankle. “They should taper at the ankle and end above your shoes rather than over them,” she adds, noting that a good styling fit trick is to have a little bit of space for your sock or skin to show through. Additionally, if you're above or below average height, then look into joggers that have an inseam length that corresponds to your height.

We use our unique methodology to test products in three labs across the country and with our network of home testers to determine their effectiveness, durability, ease of use, and so much more. Based on the results, we rate and recommend products so you can find the right one for your needs. But we don’t stop there: We also regularly re-review the categories in which we’ve awarded the PEOPLE Tested seal of approval — because the best product of today might not be the best of tomorrow.
