These are nice light pants - perfect for cooler summer days. They aren't form fitting - they are a nice, loose pant that drapes well. Very comfy - they will be perfect for traveling in the car on the way to the lake, and for everyday wearing. They don't look like sweats - the fabric is more like a light silky jersey. I've washed them twice so far- machine wash warm, normal cycle, hang to dry and they still look brand new. I really like these pants!
