We tried MeUndies' $68 lounge pants and think they're worth the money for the comfort, funky pattern choices, and how often you'll wear them

- We tried MeUndies' Lounge Pants ($68) and Modal Joggers ($68) in masculine and feminine styles and loved them for the comfort and fit. The many colors and pattern options are also a nice bonus.

Nearly everyone has clothes dedicated to lounging, but few people actually put much thought into them. More than likely you throw on your retired workout gear, some old pajamas you got for Christmas, or maybe a pair of thermals you'd typically save for the winter.
But since we're spending more time at home, now might be the time to finally upgrade your selection of cozy clothes, and MeUndies is by far one of our favorite places to shop.
Founded in 2011, MeUndies is a Los Angeles-based brand that focuses on making soft and comfortable basics. While undies are rightfully some of its most popular products (it's in the name, after all), the company's loungewear has become a cult favorite. MeUndies makes Lounge Pants, Modal Joggers, onesies, and more in a variety of colors and patterns.
We've reviewed the MeUndies loungewear in the past, but since it's been a few years, we decided to revisit it again. Several Insider Reviews team members gave the Lounge Pants and Modal Joggers a try, and we all loved how comfortable they were to wear in and around the house.

I've heard great things about MeUndies Lounge Pants for at least the past three years, and they'd always been on my list of products that I wanted to eventually try. Now that I've tried them, I wish I hadn't waited so long to do so. They're super lightweight, soft, and so comfortable that I've been practically living in them for the past few weeks. I love the pockets (they're great for carrying stuff around the house like my phone and AirPods) and they fit true to size. They're a bit too lightweight to wear outside, but I'm perfectly fine with that as I have plenty of pants to wear when I have somewhere to go. I've always liked MeUndies for its fun and adventurous underwear, but the loungewear has given me a newfound appreciation for the brand. —Amir Ismael, style & grooming reporter
Over the last few years, MeUndies loungers have remained at the very top of the list for my favorite loungewear. They're soft, silky, and regulate temperature well; I've been just as comfortable on the couch as on walks in the woods. The material is weighty and the style slightly tapered, so they also manage to be pretty flattering without being restrictive. Also, there are more than enough pockets — though the waistband is pretty relaxed, so you may not want to overfill them. All in all, I recommend these loungers often and to everybody. —Mara Leighton, style & beauty senior reporter
After hearing high praise from my coworkers, I couldn't wait to give these lounge pants a try, and they didn't disappoint! The fabric is super soft and has a surprisingly heavy weight. The fit is true-to-size, which I appreciate since so many pajama brands run small, and the waistband doesn't dig in. I also like that there are pockets at the hip and on the back. This particular style is too casual to wear outside the house, but I like that they don't totally look like pajamas either. I've only worn them a couple of times so far, but I can already tell they'll see a lot of use. —Ashley Phillips, style & beauty editor
Reviews of MeUndies Modal Joggers:
Men's/Masculine MeUndies Modal Jogger, $68 (or $50 with membership), available in 2 colors *limited sizing
Women's/Feminine MeUndies Modal Jogger, $68 (or $50 with membership), available in 1 color *limited sizing
Although they're called joggers, you probably won't be doing any major physical activity in them. I surely didn't. The soft and stretchy modal material makes them perfect for lounging around at home or stepping outside for a short walk. I really like that the joggers have a rolled edge over the elastic waistband, which you won't find on the Lounge Pants.
After trying both the Lounge Pants and the Modal Jogger, I can't say that I like one more than the other. They're both great in terms of comfort and fit — it really comes down to which style you prefer. I've been rotating between both pairs for the past few weeks and I love them both equally. —Amir Ismael, style & grooming reporter
I've been wearing these modal joggers in the light "heather oat" color for a few weeks now, and they've quickly become my favorite pants for lounging around the house. They're ultra-soft and stretchy, and the waistband isn't so restrictive that it digs in. In fact, the elastic is really gentle, so they're almost unnoticeable in the stomach area even when I'm curled up into a ball on the couch. After a few washes, I haven't noticed any pilling, so I suspect these will hold up for a long time.
And for reference, I've worn them out on walks, but they're probably too thin for going anywhere else. —Sally Kaplan, style & beauty senior editor
I've been living in loungewear over the past few weeks and this pair of joggers from MeUndies has quickly become one of my favorite pieces to wear. The modal fabric is super soft, stretchy, swingy, and feels silky smooth on my skin. While lightweight, the fabric feels substantial — I've put them through the wash a bunch already and don't see any pilling or holes. The "heather oat" color is a little see-through, so if you are hoping to wear these out of the house I would go with a darker color. For lounging, this fabric and color work perfectly. —Remi Rosmarin, style & beauty reporter
Cons to consider:
Although we collectively agree that MeUndies' loungewear is worth it, the $68 price tag does warrant some consideration. Yes, there are cheaper pieces of loungewear available for men and women, but MeUndies makes up for it in comfort, fit, and a lot of cool patterns to choose from.
The bottom line:
If you're looking for a comfortable pair of pants to lounge around and sleep in, it doesn't get any better than the ones from MeUndies. They're soft, lightweight, comfortable, and very well made. The Insider Reviews loved them when we first tested them back in 2016 and we still love them today.
