Are these the same as Spanx Perfect pants?

No. Airessentials is a lighter, breathable knit with a relaxed straight leg. Perfect pants use a thicker ponte fabric and a more tailored cut.

Do they run true to size?

Most owners say yes, and the stretch waistband forgives about a size. If you are between sizes and want a closer fit, size down.

What inseam do the tall and regular versions have?

Regular and tall are sold as separate inseam options, and tall adds length for taller frames. Check the inseam listed on the size chart before ordering.

Can I machine wash them?

Yes. Machine wash cold and hang or lay flat to dry to keep the knit from pilling.

Are they see-through?

The knit is opaque in standard colors. Lighter shades can show underwear lines, so choose seamless styles.

When is the best time to buy?

Spanx runs seasonal sales and sitewide promotions around major holidays. Watch the price history for dips below the usual full price.

Our take on the Spanx Women's Airessentials Slim Straight Pants

Spanx Airessentials Slim Straight Pants are pull-on straight-leg pants in a relaxed fit, made from a breathable, stretchy knit that reads more like everyday trousers than shapewear. They come in regular, plus and tall sizes, with regular and tall inseams. The four-way stretch waistband sits flat and smooth, which is the main reason shoppers pick them over stiff ponte pants. Rated 4.7 out of 5 from 589 ratings.
