Trousers for long haul flight

I’m looking for suggestions for trousers to wear on a long haul flight. Currently eyeing up sweaty betty harem pants but they are £££ so are they worth it?

I don't really know what 'harem pants' are, but if you are looking at Sweaty Betty, the Explorer trousers look nice, as do the Serene Luxe Fleece. But I feel the fleece might bag out at the knee.

I have Lululemon wide leg Align and they are great for travelling. I've read that the M&S straight leg joggers are nice, but don't own them myself.

This is a big vague sorry but google may track it down

I'd have to go and google it which I don't have time to right now but I came across a foreign brand that I think I read about as being linked or promoted on a Goop article about long haul travel.

The whole ethos of this brand was comfortable clothes for long haul travel and they looked amazing. The trousers looked like actual trousers as opposed to yoga pants but were made of comfy stretchy stuff. There whole schtick was be as if you are travelling in yoga pants but look smart.

I'm fairly sure it was an American brand but it could have been some other English language country like canada or South Africa/aus.

It stuck in my mind because I thought if I ever need some new ones I must get thsese. if i get time later ill look.

Thanks for the suggestion but sadly out of my price range.

Just wear a pair of leggings, it’s only a few hours

Marks and Spencers good move cuffed joggers not the cotton ones.
So comfy, and very flattering

I wear leggings or joggers that are a size too big (I always get bloated on a flight).

There's lots of barely worn sweaty Betty stuff on vinted - the Gary trousers are really comfy.

I recently wore M&S jersey straight leg trousers on long haul to South Africa. They were just the ticket, very comfortable and a little smarter than joggers.

Thanks for the suggestions, going to check out M&S and vinted.
