Harem Pants

I’ve just got back to the office from my daily lunch-time trip to the gym and I was pleased to see a few people in attendance where wearing harem pants.

I’ve seen a few wearers attending the more relaxed classes such as yoga and pilates but this was the first time I had noticed anyone wearing harem pants on the exercise machines and today I saw two people wearing them.

One way on the spin bikes working up quite a sweat whilst the other was doing what looked like a core exercise based circuit.

I’ve always thought harem pants would be great for the gym as they are baggy enough to not restrict your range of movement but not too baggy to be an obstruction when using any fitness machines as the woman on the spin bike clearly demonstrated.  They are also great for masking your figure if you have been out of the gym a little longer than expected!

This pair here look perfect for the gym as they are made from a soft knit which is 50% cotton and 50% modal.  They have a double flat elasticated waistband so you can get changed quick after a session and have a discrete AWS logo under the waistband.  The leg cuffs are elasticated as you would expect from a pair of harem pants.
