How does Powerblend fleece compare with Champion's Reverse Weave?

Powerblend is a midweight 9 oz. cotton blend with a brushed interior, softer and lighter than the heavier Reverse Weave fleece. Reverse Weave is built for tougher shrinkage resistance and a stiffer, more structured feel.

Are these sweatpants good for the gym?

Yes for warm-ups and casual training. The open hem and relaxed cut make them less suited to running or high-movement workouts than a tapered jogger.

Will they shrink in the wash?

Champion builds Powerblend as low-shrink, and owners report they keep their size and softness after washing. Cold water and low heat help.

Do they have a drawstring waist?

The waist is elastic. A drawcord is not part of the listed design, so check the waistband if you need an adjustable tie.

What is the inseam and rise like?

The cut is relaxed through the seat and thigh with an open hem at the ankle. Sizing runs roomy, so a slimmer build may want to size down.

Our take on the Champion Men's Powerblend Open-Bottom Fleece Sweatpants

Midweight 9 oz. cotton-blend fleece sweatpants with a brushed interior, side pockets and an open hem. The low-pill, low-shrink fabric is built to hold its shape and softness through repeated washes, and the open bottom gives a cleaner line than a cuffed jogger. They suit men who want a relaxed everyday fleece pant for errands, lounging and light workouts. Against cuffed joggers and heavier fleece pants, they trade a snug ankle for a looser, more versatile drape.
