Tight waistbands are officially out. If you’re tired of pants that look polished but feel restrictive the second you sit down, there are plenty of comfortable alternatives that don’t require sacrificing style for an easier fit.

From relaxed corduroy and wide-leg trousers to polished work pants and straight-leg denim, these Amazon finds prove that comfortable pants can still look pulled-together. I rounded up 13 pairs with roomier silhouettes, elastic or drawstring waistbands and easy-to-style shapes that can take you from workdays to weekends.

13 Polished Pants That Flatter and Won’t Dig In

1. Our Favorite: A soft corduroy straight-leg silhouette gives these pants plenty of fall appeal, while the drawstring waist lets you adjust the fit instead of squeezing into a rigid waistband. They’re the rare pair that feels relaxed without looking like loungewear.

2. Runner-up: These wide-leg trousers have the flowy shape that makes getting dressed instantly feel less restrictive. The relaxed cut creates a polished finish while giving your legs plenty of room to move.

3. Celeb-Approved: Trade your stiff jeans for a looser denim silhouette that still gives you that classic dressed-up-with-jeans look. The wider leg creates an effortlessly current shape that pairs just as well with sneakers as it does with ankle boots.

4. Designer-Looking: These straight-leg trousers have the polished appearance of traditional work pants without requiring you to endure a rigid fit all day. The relaxed silhouette makes them an especially smart choice for long office days when comfort matters just as much as looking put-together.

5. Everyday Essential: A simple pull-on waistband makes these wide-leg pants an easy answer for days when you absolutely do not want to button, zip or squeeze into anything. The fluid shape keeps the look sophisticated enough for errands, coffee dates or casual Fridays.
