The \u003cstrong\u003eunisex sweatpants by ENGEL Natur\u003c\/strong\u003e are made of 70% organic virgin merino wool and 30% silk. Soft, supple, and warm, but without the heavy feeling of thick wool trousers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pants are suitable for home, on the go, a gentle yoga class, a walk, or a day at your desk. The interlock fabric moves comfortably with you, while the elastic waistband with drawstring ensures a good fit. Thanks to the pockets and elastic cuffs at the bottom of the legs, these are proper sweatpants and not just a pair of long wool underpants that accidentally wandered outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy these wool-silk sweatpants are so great\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e70% organic virgin merino wool and 30% silk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSoft and sturdy interlock quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThicker and holds its shape better than fine jersey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMuch lighter and more supple than boiled wool (walk)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eUnisex model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eElastic waistband with drawstring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePractical side pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eElastic cuffs at the bottom of the pant legs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for home, travel, walking, and gentle movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature-regulating and breathable feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is interlock wool-silk?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInterlock is a densely knitted, double-sided fabric. This quality feels firmer than the thin jersey used for many wool-silk undershirts and camisoles, but it remains supple and elastic. The fabric is thick enough to wear these pants as regular sweatpants, so they don't need to be hidden under other trousers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the same time, interlock is much lighter than boiled wool. Boiled wool has a compact, felted structure and is often used for sturdy outerwear. These pants drape more softly around your body, stretch with you, and offer more freedom of movement. That makes them suitable for relaxed activity, travel, and, of course, professional lounging. Which is also a craft in itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the interlock knit, the pants generally hold their shape better than very thin wool-silk jersey. Nevertheless, it remains a product made of natural fibers. In areas with high friction, some pilling or wear may occur over time. This is normal for wool and does not mean the pants are of poor quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWarm, but not stuffy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOrganic merino wool helps retain heat and can absorb moisture without immediately feeling clammy. The silk makes the fabric smoother, more supple, and slightly lighter. This makes the pants comfortable during cold days, yet they feel less heavy and compact than thick wool sweatpants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou can wear them at home with a T-shirt or wool-silk long-sleeve, but you can also take them on trips or wear them for a walk. During yoga or gentle exercises, the fabric moves comfortably with you. For very high-intensity sports where you experience a lot of friction, sweat, or sit on rough surfaces, we would be more cautious: natural wool-silk is comfortable but less abrasion-resistant than technical synthetic sportswear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUnisex fit and sizing advice\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese sweatpants have a \u003cstrong\u003eroomy unisex fit\u003c\/strong\u003e. Men can generally choose their usual size. For women, the model is significantly roomier; we therefore advise women to take at least one size smaller than their normal women's size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you prefer a truly loose fit, you don't necessarily have to size down as much. If you want a neater, more fitted look around the hips and thighs, definitely choose a smaller size. The elastic waistband and drawstring provide enough room to adjust the waist properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen choosing your size, don't just look at your waist, but also at your hip circumference and desired leg length. Because this is a unisex model, the proportions differ from sweatpants specifically designed for women.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSweatpants to wear often\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not a base layer intended to disappear solely under other clothing. The sturdier interlock quality, pockets, cuffs, and adjustable waist make them proper trousers. You can combine them with other wool-silk underwear, but just as easily with a cotton T-shirt, a sweater, or a cardigan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWant to see more of this brand and the same natural materials?

Are you still unsure about the difference between wool-silk, 100% wool, and other qualities? In our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/natur-el.nl\/blogs\/advies\/wollen-ondergoed-keuzegids\"\u003eguide to choosing wool underwear\u003c\/a\u003e, we explain the most important differences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to care for the wool-silk interlock fabric\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnly wash the pants when absolutely necessary. After a day of wear, you can usually just let them air out well. Hang the pants in a sheltered spot and give the wool time to rest in between. This helps the fibers return to shape and limits unnecessary wear caused by washing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIs a wash necessary? Use a wool wash program at a maximum of 30 degrees, with a low spin cycle and a small amount of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/natur-el.nl\/products\/lanalicious-wasmiddel\"\u003ewool detergent with lanolin\u003c\/a\u003e. Do not overload the machine and remove the pants from the drum immediately after washing. Do not use regular detergent or fabric softener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo not wring and do not put them in the dryer. Lay the pants flat in the correct shape to dry after washing and gently pull the legs back to length. Keep an eye out for sharp jewelry, rough surfaces, and protruding parts of bags: a snagged thread from a ring or buckle happens faster with fine wool than you might like.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Engel","offers":[{"title":"S","offer_id":54317326795091,"sku":null,"price":149.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":54317326827859,"sku":null,"price":149.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"L","offer_id":54317326860627,"sku":null,"price":149.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL","offer_id":54317326893395,"sku":null,"price":149.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"XS","offer_id":54317326926163,"sku":null,"price":149.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1059\/6525\/7043\/files\/img-9748.jpg?v=1784128762","url":"https:\/\/natur-el.nl\/en\/products\/engel-wol-zijde-jogging-broek-dames-navy-240-gr-m","provider":"Natur-el","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
