I like tighter pants for travel, too much material ends up on floor, of air travel and restaurant, bathroom floors. This is unwanted cleanliness frustration. With extra flowy bottoms, you have to pull the leg sleeve up before pant tops, and hope it stats put. Ick. Whereas, these do not end up on floors. Nicer than leggings. Not heavy weight material for most weather friendly. . I size up for roomier look without extra slack, and overnight air comfort. Travels well. Could have added design element, or/and sheen, to push it past the legging look,or jean look. To be more business like, and subtlety break up the color.
