10 Pairs of Fleece-Lined Sweatpants That I’m Refusing To Take Off All Winter

I have officially been wearing sweatpants all year, and news flash: I’m not stopping anytime soon. With winter now in full swing, my August joggers are just not braving the brutal wind and New York slush the way I wish they would. This means it’s time for a cold-weather upgrade.

We all love our fleece-lined leggings and our cozy winter jeans, but with many chilly months ahead of us, these are the pairs of fleece-lined sweatpants I am refusing to take off all winter… unless I’m changing out of one pair and into another.
