Many brands have come and gone in the pursuit of better basics, but there’s a reason guys don't stray from tried and true legends—they make great clothing. Brands like Carhartt, Russell, and Fruit of the Loom have been go-to's for staples like men's T-shirts and underwear for over a century. Champion is also among these titans, with a decades-long grip on the athletic sweats scene that hasn't been close to being challenged, and recently, one of its most popular pairs of sweatpants dipped below $25.
Right now, Champion’s Powerblend Fleece Jogger Sweatpants are on sale starting at just $20, a 55% discount on the $45 sweats. These sweatpants are backed by an astronomical 23,000 five-star ratings with many shoppers calling them the "perfect" pair. There are a range of colors to choose from and, as is typically the case with Amazon, prices vary by the color and size selected. Despite that, there are plenty of options below $30 in most sizes.
The Powerblend is an affordable, lightweight alternative to Champion’s Reverse Weave sweats. It's a lightweight, 9-ounce cotton-poly blend, making it better suited for casual workouts and warm weather than the hefty, primarily cotton Reverse Weave fabric. These sweats feature two hand pockets and Champion’s embroidered C-logo, though some colorways feature a script logo down the leg. An adjustable drawstring waistband ensures comfort and security as well.
Champion’s Powerblend sweats are the ideal combination of comfort and value, according to Amazon shoppers. "Best sweats on the market for the price,” a shopper said. “I love the tapered fit. I love the closed-bottom cuffs. Can't find a better pair of sweatpants. Come on—sweatpants should be cheap and comfortable and that's what you have here.”
Other shoppers have found them to be the ideal pair of casual pants. “Champion has managed to strike the perfect balance between comfort and style," a shopper said. "The joggers are tailored in a way that they provide a relaxed, comfortable fit without appearing overly baggy…The fleece material is soft, plush, and provides just the right amount of warmth without causing overheating.”
If you’re looking for an affordable pair of sweats for around the house, running errands, or light workouts, Champion has you covered for just $20 with the Powerblend Fleece Jogger Sweatpants. You’ll want to move quickly because some of these discounts are only running for a limited time.
