Whether you’re traveling for work or pleasure—or perhaps a bit of both—it’s essential to pack clothes that are comfortable and versatile. Enter joggers: Unlike traditional baggy sweatpants, these pants tend to be slightly more formfitting and tailored, making you look more polished and put together without sacrificing comfort. These days, they’re available in a variety of fabrics and styles, with options for exercise, lounging, and even dressing up.
With this in mind, we’ve rounded up our top picks for the best women's joggers. Ahead, you’ll find a variety of options that range in price, color, and material to suit any occasion, be it an hours-long hike, a business conference (yes, really!), or lounging around your Airbnb.

These Lululemon joggers stand out for their super-soft and stretchy jersey material and fast-drying, moisture-wicking construction. As such, they’re ideal for active trips where you may be hiking or doing a lot of walking. Shoppers can choose from five timeless neutral hues—from black and navy to heather gray—in sizes 0 to 14.
Vuori’s Performance Jogger features the brand’s signature moisture-wicking DreamKnit fabric, which is comprised of recycled polyester and elastane. In addition to their ultra-soft feel and touch, the pants offer fantastic four-way stretch, an elastic waistband, and two stash pockets. Not only do they come in two different lengths (regular and long), but they also come in a slew of color options (14, to be exact!) in sizes XXL-XXL.
These Z Supply joggers may look like denim, but they actually feature a soft chambray fabric made of lyocell—and they’re well worthy of a spot in your warm weather wardrobe thanks to their comfy fit. The elastic drawstring waistband ensures a customized fit, while the cargo pockets are ideal for stashing away in-flight essentials like lip balm and earbuds without taking up precious space in your personal item.
One-part loungewear, one-part activewear-slash-athleisure, Free People’s aptly named Off Road Joggers were specially designed for hiking, running, and other adventurous activities such as sightseeing, thanks to functional features like four-way stretch, a breathable construction, and a sweat-wicking finish.

Clarksville, a historic district of Austin, Texas, has lately emerged as a stylish dining and shopping enclave. Among the area’s most compelling new businesses is La Embajada, a design shop housed in a 1923 Craftsman bungalow. Combining the hospitality and interiors expertise of its founder, Raul Cabra — who has designed tableware for some of Mexico City’s most celebrated restaurants, including Rosetta and Pujol — La Embajada presents a refined, regionally diverse selection of Mexico’s artisanal offerings. A series of small rooms display vintage and contemporary furniture, from stately midcentury armchairs and 1970s glass sconces to a minimalist agave fiber rug by the Oaxaca-based textile artist Trine Ellitsgaard. The house is also an actual residence. Cabra often stays in the bedroom up the creaky stairs, and he’s recently made it available for short-term stays (bookings include a daily basket of baked goods from Austin’s Swedish Hill). Guests can purchase the room’s handmade décor, such as a pair of sleek bedside lamps in milky white onyx, a 1960s La Malinche dresser and a bedspread from a Michoacan manufacturer that once supplied Herman Miller. Downstairs, glassware, candles and gifts fill a section modeled after a typical general store in a small Mexican town. But La Embajada’s heart is its inviting kitchen, where visiting chefs cook elaborate meals and staff prepare ice cream and coffee. In another twist, every bespoke detail — including a hammered copper sink, caramel-colored tiles and waxed pine cabinets — can be custom-ordered for one’s own home.
