We’re now two weeks out of No Jeans January, and I know I’ve already had the rubber band reaction of overdosing on denim after denying myself of it for so long. Of course, the reason we reach for jeans is because they are as easy to wear and always look good, but what if you could throw “feels like I’m wearing sweatpants” to that list as well?

Enter, the french terry jeans. French terry is soft to the touch, but reads as a chino once you put them on. Perfect for those Mondays (or Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, or Fridays) where you don’t want to get dressed for work, but inevitably have to.

THE FRENCH TERRY JEANS: JBRAND, $198
