love the ABC pants!
woah you mean I can get them sweat pants feels at work? sold. I hate wearing dress clothes because they're pretty uncomfortable... but I also like looking sharp. This is def a game changer
check out Outlier
Pair with a button up from state & liberty or mizzen & main. You will be more comfortable than if you were wearing pajamas.
game changer!!
You, sir, just improved my life immensely. Just got my first State & Liberty shirt and it definitely lives up to the hype. Time to replace the whole closet.
Currently wearing a State & Liberty shirt. They're seriously one of the most comfortable shirts I've ever worn. Also helpful for the warmer weather.
I only wish they would improve the collars or offer different styles of collars.

ya game changer to your wallet
mizzen & main is the greatest clothing company to grace this earth
You cool with everyone checking out your camel toe?
It's called a moose knuckle, and yes, cause it's PHAT
“Hey Stacey, nice to finally meet you in person. I know you’re really interested in this position, so I wanted to congratulate you and let you know that my bulge bracket’s got an exploding offer ready just for you. Did you bring your kneepads?”
Interesting, will investigate further. Any chance to find them at retailers?
I think every mall in the US and Canada has a lululemon store... although their "we made too much" section on their site has nice deals.
What type of shoes with the ABC?
If you really want to rock the aggressively comfortable outfit then get some Cole Haan zero grands but that would be way too casual for me on a regular day
Thinking about these as well. Trying to get a pair that work with nice dress pants and ABC pants. Think the Zeros would work? If not, what else would?
When it’s a khakis/nice blue jeans kinda day, I wear a similar pant from Patagonia. These types of pants are comfy but not really for work. Definitely nice to not feel restricted at your desk all day and be able to still blend in.
ABCs are good, also check out the Theory stretch dress pants.
If you're really going for comfort, then you need to check out Rhone's commuter pants. Note that they're probably the most casual-looking than the others, but they're the most comfortable imo.
I second this. Rhone's commuter pants are the most comfortable pants I've ever worn in my life. My legs feel like they're immersed in silk.
Are these more comfortable than the Lululemon ABC? But look more synthetic?
Are they non-iron or do they at least manage to stay pretty unwrinkled after washing? Main reason I find it hard to ditch wool.
Same on Rhone if anyone knows. Would replace all my pants tomorrow if so.
Rhone is non-wrinkle after washing. Also got caught in some rain and was pleasantly surprised to find that they're pretty water resistant in addition to being flexible (pretty much a full range of motion). Very happy customer. I will say to get them tailored beforehand (might take longer for delivery) or just have it done at a local tailor. I think standard is 34L.
Just picked up a pair of the ABC pants and a pair of the commission pants from all the rave on this post. I have zero regrets since they can pass as business casual in most work settings, plus they're ultra comfortable and breathable.
A nice factor which hasn't really been touched on here is that they hold their shape very well and don't stretch. I have a few jcrew chinos and my biggest issue is that after wearing them all day they tend to sag a bit on the butt and waist.
is Commission or ABC better?
I wear commissions, think they are a little dressier. Commissions have the pocket structure of chinos while ABC’s are more in line with how you would make a pair of jeans. No one will nit pick the difference though
Would ABC pants be acceptable at a B.B. trade floor? I really like them and think they go well with a nice dress shirt, but I can also see if they’d be frowned upon.
Eh I probably wouldn't do it personally... maybe on Friday
Possibly, but you're flirting with the line of business formality. I work on a commodity trading floor which is generally more casual, but I think that some of the colors with the ABC pants can be dressed up.
This is a bit vague, but I hope it helps.
I’m an intern at a BB and I wear commissions every day. Much more casual office than NYC though
What shoes can one wear with stretch chinos like Lululemon?
I normally wear dress loafers.... that would probably be too formal?
Bump for shoes with ABC
I wear the Commission Slim because they're slightly more formal (slit pockets) and just fit me better and I wear them with double monk straps (black) or "sleds" (brown) depending on the pant color (black/grey/blue)
In fact, I think it can be
Best pants out there
I have fully switched over to commissions and ABCs and it has dramatically raised my quality of life. Under armour has a few golf pants that can likely pass for work as well
