We Can’t Believe We’re Saying This, But Spanx Makes The Best Pants

Though they started out as a shapewear brand, Spanx has grown to become a heavy-hitter in the world of fashion. The secret lies in the company’s ability to make clothing that is on-trend, flattering on all figures and, most importantly, comfortable. They’ve all but done away with the notion that items like shapewear or undergarments like bras, leather leggings and more need to be constricting and unappealing.
Part of Spanx’ growth and success stems from their iconic leggings, which come in a variety of fabrics and styles. Even many who disavow wearing leggings as pants can agree that Spanx leggings are as good as it gets. You won’t break a sweat getting them on, they hug curves beautifully and they look much more expensive than they actually are. And if you aren’t a leggings person, their growing array of trousers offer that same Spanx quality and fit, but with a bit more flair.
