I have 2 pairs, they are comfy but they run a little small and because they look like jeans they lack the drawstring or elastic waste bands on sweatpants so they tend to creep down my hips. I wear mine on the weekends, when I'm not working but may be in and out of the house (maybe a trip to the grocery store), but I would never wear them anyplace significant like the mall, or out to eat. Getting gas for the car, picking up groceries, or after I work out - they're fine.
