Kaia Gerber wears the pants trend that replaces leggings

Remember when leggings were the only “comfy” pants a fashionable girl would wear outside? Well, those days are long gone. Now, there are many styles of casual pants to wear when going out, and some even dress them up for a night out. Of course, leggings are still very popular, but gone are the days when they were considered the number one casual pants trend. However, in 2024, a new comfy pants trend has emerged that I predict you’ll want to get your hands on (if you don’t already have them).

The trend I’m referring to is pull-on wide-leg pants, which can be likened to pajama pants or pants with an elasticated waist. The truth is, there are plenty of sleek options on the market that won’t make you look like you just rolled out of bed, and Kaia Gerber recently wore one. Gerber paired her black pull-on pants with a blue knit top and ballet flats. Follow her example when choosing and wearing pants: low-waisted, long, and loose.

Some of the most popular pull-on pants right now include these affordable pants from H&M and Reformation’s Olina pants, both of which I own and can vouch for. So keep scrolling for outfit inspiration and to shop our trending picks for pull-on pants.
