Comfortable pants are essential year-round, but if your closet lacks a waist-snatching, leg-lengthening pair, now is the perfect time to grab one. ICYDK, Spanx offers a *huge* selection of sleek styles worth incorporating into your fall wardrobe, from wide-leg pants with a built-in 360-degree smoothing panel to ankle-slim pants featuring four-way stretch. That's right, folks—the brand we all know and love for quality shapewear does more than make figure-snatching undergarments.

The best part? These styles and more are priced at less than $150, so I'll cut to the chase: I've rounded up three Spanx pants that will make you look instantly dressed up—but feel comfortable enough for everything from long days at the office to overnight flights. Happy shopping!

These wide-leg pants—made of cotton, Lenzing Ecovero viscose, polyester and Lycra elastane—offer tummy, waist *and* back smoothing, so you look snatched in all the right places. One shopper adds, "The material is so comfortable and breathable, yet thick enough to be flattering and not at all see-through." They're available in six colors and three inseams, so you can find the perfect pair, no matter your shape or size.

With built-in Spanx CoreSure tech—which smooths and compresses—and a four-way stretch fabric, these particularly polished pull-on ponte pants check all the boxes and then some. Thanks to those vertical pintuck seams, they also work wonders to lengthen the look of your leg, so if I were you, I would grab them in both black and navy today.

Searching for a pair of buttery soft bottoms to add to your lounge-day rotation? If so, look no further than this style, which is crafted from a "light-as-air fabric," according to the brand. They're designed to offer maximum airflow and circulation while also staying in place with a flexible, drawcord waistband. Plus, they're designed to be tailored in the back, so there's no sagging at the bum. That said, I wouldn't blame you if you decided to live in these beauties this fall, considering one shopper described them as, "the softest, most comfortable and elegant loungewear" ever. Yeah, I'm sold.
