User says barrel pants go with anything and notes sizing runs big/long
You really can wear them with anything. Don’t overthink it. If you usually wear jeans, just wear them the same way, with the same sorts of things. The only thing you’ll need to be wary of is the sizing. I find they come up quite big / long. As somebody who is tall, this was a nice surprise for me. But they’re a great pair of trousers. I’ll probably buy a second pair.

User compares all three pants: regular barrel, jersey barrel, and wide pleated
i have all 3 of them, and live in SEA, i can tell you that the barrel pants material is thicker and has been sitting in my wardrobe. The jersey barrel pants is better suited in our climate. I also have the wide plated tapered pants and is in my daily rotation for work in a clinical practice.
