Amazon EssentialsWomen's Fleece Jogger Sweatpant (Available in Plus Size)OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100

I really love these joggers! I bought a size up from my typical size because I was sick of joggers feeling tight of my waist (PCOS belly over here) and just wanted something loose to lounge in. I love they have the drawstring so I can tighten them to comfort. They are average thickness, think spring or summer nights thick (from the Midwest), the color was spot on, and I didnt notice any specific smell when opening them, I actually started wearing them that day.

Fits true to size, maybe slightly large. I’m a medium in most brands and the waist is just a tiny bit too big. Waist is elastic w good stretch and functional ties. Legs are nicely tapered and length hits mid ankle bone (5’7”). Good lightweight fleece, soft and comfy. Wish the pockets were a little deeper but it’s not terrible. Also, burgundy is a little more purple than red based.

So good. I MAY HAVE an explanation for inconsistent weight of material. First one I ordered was medium thickness. Second was lighter. It IS the same product, having reordered from the first one. Amazon does not make Essential Amazon items, of course. It outsources to more than one company to buy from and then marking it as its own. Not too dissimilar to buying CVS brand eye drops VS. Visine brand. It's the same product. In fact, the CVS brand will have a disclaimer that it is NOT made by Visine as well as "Compare with Visine brand' on the product. (The CVS item is oursourced to one company, however.) So! I'm not pleased that the two so-called 'same products' are of different weights but they both serve my purpose. Both weights are good but different. It may be a crapshoot as to which one is sold to Amazon customers This could explain the number of returns if any.

I love these comfortable, soft Amazon Essentials fleece joggers for women. The material is not too thick or too thin. The pants washed and dried beautifully with no shrinkage, and they fit me perfectly at 5' 1" in size Large. I bought three different colors; I liked them so much!

Sorry Amzn but ALL COTTON-POLY (synthetic) BLENDS PILL!! Why can't anyone make a 100% cotton sweat /jogger pants & tops anymore? I hate to throw my money away on pants or tops I know will look awful after a wearing or two.Sweats--pants & shirts used to be 100% Cotton. They were heavier in the winter for warmth and a lighter weight for the warmer months. They were always very comfy and held up so well. The more they were worn the softer & more comfortable they became. Sure, maybe they faded a little after so many washings but you didn't mind because you'd them for such a long time. Maybe, after a few yrs, you moved them to the "wear at home" or for "dirty work only" section of your closet or dresser. And, yes cotton shrinks--unless, like most quality manufacturer's did, they'd pre-shrunk the fabric prior to making up into clothing. Otherwise, everyone knew they would shrink, and selected their size accordingly.There are many people who are allergic to synthetics, yet everything is made from them or a blend with cotton. Nothing from a blend holds up and stays looking nice...as addressed above. ..but you may save a few minutes by never having to iron anything. Then again, you have to continually replace, which means taking time to shop--online or in person plus there's that added expense.. So what have you saved? You just keep throwing good money after bad.Besides, do you really like wearing oil all the time? That's what synthetics are made from--chemicals and oil by-products. Yuk!Just for clarification & transparency I DO NOT have any personal financial interest in any cotton farm or manufacturer of fabrics or clothing. I'm just sick & tired of everything being made from synthetics or blends thereof. I'm sick of finding something I think will look nice on me and then finding out it's made from synthetic fabric. I'm sick of buying things that look awful an ned to br tossed out after being worn.once or twice. I'd rather look wrinkled, after a few hours of linen or cotton, if not treated to prevent some of that, then be walking around wearing something that's all pilled up and should be in the rag bag. It's not like you can "de-pill" anything.All of us who are sensitive to synthetic fabrics will happily buy 100% cotton, linen, silk, wool--all the natural fibers --which, need I say, are sustainable too?

Wearing these sweatpants now and they are so soft, fit true to size and are extremely comfortable. I have washed them a couple of times time and they wash and dry well. I am planning on buying another couple of pairs on different colors.
