Product Insights
The Twik French Terry Wide-Leg Pant offers a high-waisted 12.5-inch rise that sits 1.5–3 inches above other Twik wide-legs, paired with a 30-inch inseam that avoids floor pooling while remaining full-length. Made from 100% organic cotton French terry, it provides breathable insulation, moisture absorption (up to 25% of its weight), and a pill-resistant face. However, the fabric may shrink up to 8% if not cold-washed and flat air-dried. At $59 CAD, it undercuts comparable pants like Quince's stretch terry by using organic cotton. The pant is currently out of stock, part of a Simons-exclusive set with matching hoodie and crewneck. The knit construction delivers stretch without spandex, and sizing XS–XL maintains proportional volume.

Deep Research
Sizing and real-world fit
- The 12.5-inch front rise on this pant is labeled 'Regular' by Twik but measures 1.5 to 3 inches higher than the 9.5-inch and 11-inch rises on the brand's pleated dress pant and linen-blend wide-leg styles, so it delivers bona fide high-rise coverage that hugs the natural waist and adds extra core warmth from the French terry fabric.
- With a 30-inch inseam, these run 2 to 2.75 inches shorter than the 32-inch and 32.75-inch inseams on Twik's other wide-leg pants, landing around the ankle on average-height wearers and deliberately avoiding the pooling effect — which means they read best with flat footwear like sneakers, sandals, or bare feet indoors.
- The product image across colorways shows an X-Large, so shoppers can assess how the wide leg and French terry drape on a plus-size frame — the cut is engineered to keep proportions consistent, meaning the silhouette won't turn into a tent on smaller sizes but will look as voluminous on a size small as it does on the XL.
Care and keeping the organic cotton looking new
- A mild detergent (baby, delicate, or eco-friendly) cleans without stripping the cotton's natural softness; harsh chemicals can weaken the fibers and cause fading in the organic cotton.
- Laying the pant flat to air dry prevents the loops from stretching out and keeps the fabric soft; high dryer heat can stiffen the material and cause pilling.
- Fabric softeners coat the terry loops, reducing the fabric's natural moisture absorbency and breathability — two properties that make French terry comfortable against the skin.
- Storing the pant folded instead of on a hanger prevents the heavyweight French terry from stretching out over time, preserving the wide-leg silhouette.
- 100% cotton French terry can shrink up to 8% in the first wash if untreated, so washing this pant in cold water and air-drying it flat is essential to preserve its 30-inch inseam and wide-leg shape.
- Turning the pant inside out and selecting a gentle cycle reduces friction against the looped back, which is the primary way to prevent pilling and snagging over repeated washes.
How it stacks up against other wide-leg terry pants
- As a Twik by Simons exclusive designed in Canada, the pant is not a nationally distributed brand but a private‑label item available only through Simons, giving it a curated, non‑ubiquitous status that sets it apart from direct‑to‑consumer competitors like Quince.
- With a 12.5‑inch rise, the Twik pant sits approximately 1.75 inches higher on the waist than Quince’s stretch wide‑leg (which lists a 10 3⁄4‑inch front rise), delivering a longer torso‑to‑crotch line that flatters a vintage, high‑waist silhouette.
- The matching hoodie and crew‑neck sweatshirt sold separately create a full French terry lounge set; even at full retail, the pants remain less than the Quince stretch wide‑leg, allowing the complete set to be built for roughly the cost of one competitor pant.
- The Twik pant achieves its stretch through a knit construction of pure organic cotton rather than the 4% spandex blend used by Quince's stretch French terry wide‑leg pants, meaning it delivers give and recovery without introducing synthetic fibers — a notable advantage for those who prioritize biodegradability and want to avoid elastane’s tendency to degrade over time.
- At its full price of $59 CAD (approximately $43 USD), the Twik pant undercuts the $49.90 USD Quince stretch terry wide‑leg pant by about 15% while using 100% organic cotton versus a cotton‑rayon‑lyocell‑spandex blend, offering a more premium fiber content for less money.
How French terry fabric is constructed
- The uncut loops create micro air pockets that trap body heat for lightweight insulation while still allowing enough air circulation for moderate temperatures — the pant works as a standalone piece on cool days and layers easily without overheating.
- The loop side's tiny 1–2 mm loops soak up to 25% of their weight in moisture without feeling wet — 50% more than a flat knit — so the pant wicks sweat and keeps skin comfortably dry through a day of wear, not just during a workout.
- The outward-facing side is a flat jersey knit that drapes cleanly for the wide-leg silhouette and naturally resists pilling — the pants will remain polished after repeated wear, unlike fleece which tends to fuzz up.
- Because French terry's loops are left uncut — unlike sweatshirt fleece where the pile is sheared — the fabric stays medium-weight and breathable, so this wide-leg pant doesn't feel heavy or trap heat like a fleece sweatpant would.
- Unlike a standard single jersey pant that would feel like a T-shirt on both sides, French terry's looped interior provides a soft, cushioning handfeel against the skin, while the smooth face keeps the wide-leg silhouette crisp and structured.

Nice non-fleece sweat pants
Bought these for dance lesson. They are perfect as they aren't as warm as fleece lined sweat pants. Yet the fabric is thick enough that they look high quality. I love the elastic on the leg of the pants that you can tighten it for a different look or even pull up one/ both legs to the knee. They were a bit long for me as I am 5'4. I put them in the dryer for an hour now they are perfect. Nobody wants to trip on long pants while dancing. I may buy another pair but size up for a baggy look.

Pas encore porté, mais très épais et lourd Ce sera pour l’hiver
Great quality and beautiful colour but size DOWN
Definitely size down on these track pants. The blue colour is gorgeous. The style is a standard track pant. Would be cute in the right size.
Superb sweat pants
Only positive things to say about these pants. Very comfortable. I love the French terry lining - it hold up a lot better through washes than a fleece lining. The leg opening is also adjustable with built in toggles.
French terry wide leg pant
Very nice. Should have bought smaller size
Q&A
1 answered- Can you confirm the fabric weight or GSM of the French terry? This affects the pant's warmth and drape, and isn't listed in the description.
- The fabric weight or GSM is not specified in the product details, but French terry fabric like this is typically 200–300 gsm, giving a medium weight suitable for cool weather and moderate drape.
