This article was created in partnership with Spanx. The product selections also meet our editorial criteria in terms of quality and value.
Spanx is for the person who is both corporate and cozy. Their workwear, loungewear, and basics are both practical and comfortable — and many of them continue to be enduring favorites of our team.
Instead of producing a ton of styles, the brand focuses on a few items that they've perfected. One of those is the Spanx PerfectFit Pants, which look like a great work slack but feel like sweatpants.
Their AirEssentials sets are the gold standard of matching sweatsuits. They're made of a breathable, airy material that's nothing like the heavyweight cotton material typically used for sweats. Though the fabric looks thick, it's porous enough that airflow is abundant.
Spanx workwear makes a great, practical gift for anyone from a new grad about to start their first job to a corporate powerhouse who spends so much time at the office that they deserve to be comfy. And their basics, like jeans or sweatsuits, are all-season staples that anyone would appreciate.
Plus, almost everything on their site is available in alpha sizing, so you won't have to send any texts asking potentially awkward questions about specific measurements.
We have a dedicated review of the Spanx PerfectFit Pant and it also made the cut for a bunch of our guides to the best workwear for women, including the best work pants for women. See our full Spanx review for more details about our favorite products.
Here are our selects for the best Spanx gifts
The material is a comfortable, versatile, and machine-washable Ponte fabric that's smoothing but not constricting, similar to yoga pants. They come in petite, regular, and tall lengths in sizes XS - 3X.
We love Spanx AirEssentals for the breathable fabric, stylish cut, and huge variety of color availability.
You can get these wide-leg pants in petite, regular, and tall lengths — a fantastic fitting detail that we hardly see in sweatpants.

These stretchy high-rise gym leggings use a compressive sculpting fabric to give your bum a flattering lift and shape, plus feature a hidden waistband pocket for your phone. They’re now nearly $20 off their usual price.
Thanks to—seriously, magical—smoothing ponte fabric and a comfortable, pull-on design, this classic black work pant offers a sleek look, a great butt and features a straight-leg cut, making for a style so flattering, you’ll wear them again and again.
