What if jogging trousers replaced our favourite denim? The quest for the perfect pair of jeans is often no easy task. While vintage Levi’s® Twisted Engineered jeans are among my favourites, I recently challenged myself to wear jogging trousers outside the gym. And while you may have thought that the sportswear trend would run out of steam, that is certainly not the case on catwalks. For Autumn-Winter 2024-2025, Marine Serre imagines a simple tracksuit, while Lemaire adds a pair of charcoal grey sweatpants to her timelessly chic wardrobe.
Will jogging trousers dethrone jeans?
For the spring-summer 2025 season, the landscape is similar among fashion houses. Dior has signed an athletic wardrobe, where sneakers are getting longer and jogging suits (logotyped, of course) bring a more casual dimension to the strict office-wear jacket.
But how do you wear jogging trousers in the city? Just as versatile as jeans, joggers don’t have to look sloppy. The ultimate daytime option: pair them with a timeless pair of sneakers, a white T-shirt, a blazer jacket and a few well-chosen pieces of jewellery. For the nighttime version, dare to wear sweatpants with a dress jacket and a pair of high heels.
