About our MotionWeave Convertible Pants:
This guide features our In-Motion Pant and Motion Bootcut Pant - both designed for versatile everyday styling.
Our signature MotionWeave fabric is lightweight, breathable, and wrinkle-resistant with just-right stretch that moves with you - perfect for all-day comfort when you're on the go, meeting up with friends, or exploring a new city.
Look 1: Everyday Casual
Perfect for: Running errands, quick coffee runs, everyday activities
The Outfit:
- In-Motion Pant
- Fitted or semi-fitted long sleeve tee (try our Finesse Long Sleeve Tee or Essential Long Sleeve Tee)
- Casual sneakers
- Crossbody bag or tote
Why it works: These go-anywhere pants look great every single day - perfect for everyday wear when you want to look put-together without even trying. The lightweight, breathable MotionWeave fabric keeps you comfortable all day, no matter where you're going.
Casual style perfect for coffee shops and daily errands
Styling tip: This is your go-to outfit when you want to look pulled together without overthinking it. Neutral pants, simple top, sneakers - done.
Look 2: Girlfriend Get-Together
Perfect for: Brunch dates, casual dinners with friends, coffee meet-ups, weekend get-togethers
The Outfit:
- Motion Bootcut Pant
- Elevated tee - French tucked (try our Finesse Long Sleeve Tee or Essential Long Sleeve Tee)
- Denim jacket
- White sneakers
- Sunglasses
Why it works: This outfit strikes the right balance - styled enough for meeting friends, comfortable enough to wear for hours. The denim jacket layers easily if the restaurant is cold, and the bootcut silhouette flatters whether you're sitting or standing.
Elevated style perfect for brunch and social events
Styling tip: The French tuck defines your waist and shows off the Motion Bootcut's ruched waistband - a small detail that makes the outfit feel more intentional.
Look 3: The Travel Day
Perfect for: Flights, road trips, long travel days
The Outfit:
- In-Motion Pant
- Comfortable tee (try our Essential Short Sleeve Tee)
- Cardigan or cozy pullover for temperature changes

Lightweight and wrinkle-free travel pants
Styling tip: Convertible travel pants are perfect for long flights because they're lightweight and wrinkle-resistant. The adjustable inseam means you can wear them full-length on the plane, then convert to capri when you land at your warm-weather destination.
Look 4: The Work-from-Anywhere
Perfect for: Casual Fridays, remote work days, relaxed office environments
The Outfit:
- In-Motion Pant
- Shawl Collar Pullover(Or try theSnap Collar Pullover)
- Loafers, mules or fashion sneakers
- Structured tote or work bag
Why it works: This relaxed yet put together look is comfortable enough for hours at your desk and professional enough for in-person meetings or casual office days. The shawl-collar top keeps the look work-appropriate.
Pairing In-Motion Pant with a stylish Pullover for Casual Work Friday
Styling tip: The Snap Collar adds a sporty touch, while the Shawl Collar feels more refined - both work equally well for casual work settings.
Look 5: Getting Your Steps In

The Outfit:
- In-Motion Pant
- Active tee or tank (try our Endurance Short Sleeve Tee or Energy Tank)
- Colorful active jacket or hoodie (try our Essential Full Zip Jacket)
- Athletic sneakers
- Crossbody bag for hands-free convenience
Why it works: These pants make it easy to add extra steps to your day - park a block away, take the stairs, walk the long way. They're comfortable enough for all that movement but still look good for everything else on your to-do list. The adjustable length lets you transition from active to casual.
Convertible design transforms from full-length to capri
Styling tip: A colorful jacket or hoodie adds personality to your look. It's an easy layer to add when it's cool or remove as you warm up.
