J.Jill has roomier leggings and slim fit pants that look similar to a legging. they almost always have coupon codes available and if you get their card you always get an additional 5% off. they have a great clearance section also.

Our store doesn't carry Plus Size for them, tho I think it's available online - but I won't use that as I need to know if they fit right.

Aren't leggings tight by nature? If you want something loose, you are probably looking for tapered pants.

I would have thought that, too. But to be honest, the Susan Graver legging, imo, is sort of a happy blend of both a pant and leggings. Comfortable, easy to wear, no knee sagging from fabric stretch.

Re: Where to find loose fitting leggings?

I just received my Serena Williams leggings; they fit loose at the waist but still a little close to the leg as well. Does that even make sense? I ordered the large size as I don't want the skin tight either. But I could have gone with the med. I think.They are a nice weight too. I also ordered some boot cut leggings from Shop HQ yesterday to try them out. And I bought a slim knit jean from Macys that sound exactly what you are describing. From the Style & Co line. Have 4 pair and got them for under $20 each. In the dark wash denim. Very flattering and comfy.

Re: Where to find loose fitting leggings?

I like the stretch in leggings, not in tapered pants (I use D&Co.'s stretch jean leggings as jeans, as they are not tight). But I want a black pair, more dressier looking than jeans. Again, please give me a SG item #!

Thanks, but I don't want studs, no matter how small they are.

Susan Graver Stretch Cotton Full Length Leggings w/Elastic Band

Some of the reviews are really vicious. Is the material too thin? This is only 1 I would try but if it's thin like tights, say, & not lightweight pants, they're not for me either. They don't look too thin in the video, but...

Re: Where to find loose fitting leggings?

I think the whole idea of the name leggings implies that they hug the body and leg.......sounds like you're looking for slim fitting pants.
