Out of nowhere, sweatpants are back in style—pair them with this chic coat trend to sport them the 2025 way.

      Sweatpants often receive a negative reputation, being labeled as sloppy or overly casual, while leggings can be worn in various ways, including with blazers, kitten heels, sneakers, and cropped puffers. This perception is quite unjust, particularly since sweatpants can appear just as stylish as leggings when styled appropriately. The trick is to combine your fresh, clean sweatpants and sweatsuits with sophisticated pieces that counterbalance their comfortable, relaxed fit and soft fabric. For example, Elsa Hosk recently wore a light heather-gray set paired with a long fur coat, an Hermès Birkin bag, and white pumps. In this way, her cozy outfit evolved into an impressive ensemble suitable for almost any occasion. While her Birkin and heels certainly contributed to the look, the primary reason Hosk's sweatsuit appeared so refined was her choice of outerwear. Her floor-length, chocolate-brown faux-fur coat from Helsa, which she mentioned is now available for purchase alongside her jogger set on her Instagram, perfectly complemented her loungewear, elevating it to a more formal, stylish level.

      Hosk is not the only one bringing this winter ensemble into 2025. Across the Atlantic in London, content creator Marilyn Nwawulor-Kazemaks is also sporting her gray sweats with fur coats, showcasing that this cold-weather style is universally appreciated and ready for prominence. She shared on Instagram pictures of herself wearing ankle-length gray joggers with a fur-trimmed, waist-cinched coat and black slingback pumps, creating an unconventional yet effective look. It’s warm and functional while still maintaining a high-end and stylish appeal.

      This suggests that while leggings are a solid choice for winter, don’t overlook sweatpants; give them another chance before depending on them throughout the season. Just remember to combine them with a fur coat for a contemporary feel. Continue scrolling to discover the best sweatpants and fur coats to enhance your wardrobe this season.
