Product Insights
The I.FIV5 Pleated Stretch Weave Wide-Leg Pant combines 86% recycled polyester with Polygiene odor control for lasting freshness, offering a sustainable choice at $69 CAD. Its pleats and stretch weave provide fluid movement suitable for yoga, Pilates, and barre, while the wide-leg cut channels airflow and resists wrinkles for travel. The main tradeoff is its limitation to low-impact activities—not for running or cycling—and the need to consider sizing and fabric opacity for full coverage.

Deep Research
Pocket depth and everyday phone security
- The open slant pocket skips any zipper hardware, so there's no metal tab to dig into the hip during floor poses or lounging — a deliberate choice that keeps these pants soft and drapey, whereas a zippered pocket on a lightweight wide-leg pant would add a stiff point of friction.
- The 14% spandex blend in the recycled polyester fabric gives the pocket area enough elastic recovery to resist the stretched-out, drooping look that can happen when a loaded pocket is paired with a lightweight garment — so these pants stay tidy even after carrying a phone all morning.
Sustainability and Simons’ Vision program
- Producing 1 kg of virgin polyester consumes about 1.5 kg of crude oil; the 86% recycled fiber in these pants eliminates that fossil-fuel input, directly supporting the ‘Reduction of Emissions’ tag on the product page.
- The Vision label — requiring either a circular production process or at least 50% reduced-impact materials — is earned here through the 86% recycled polyester, aligning this pant with the retailer’s 2018 commitment to shift its exclusive production to majority sustainable fibres.
- Approximately 98% of recycled polyester fiber is sourced from post-consumer PET bottles rather than textile waste, so each pair of pants directly diverts plastic waste from landfill into a long-wear activewear piece.
- Recycled polyester uses 45–85% less energy and emits 30–60% less CO2 than virgin polyester according to peer-reviewed life cycle assessments, meaning the 86% recycled content in these pants significantly reduces the garment’s production carbon footprint compared to a conventional performance pant.
- Simons initiated its Vision program on the back of a 2018 target to ensure at least 50% sustainable fibres across its exclusive brands; with 86% recycled polyester, this pant directly contributes to that corporate sustainability goal.
How it compares to other wide-leg active pants under $80
- For the same approximate price ($49.90 USD vs $69 CAD), the Quince Performance Tech Wide Leg Pant layers on wrinkle-resistance and UPF 50, making it the stronger travel companion—but the I.FIV5 counters with Polygiene antimicrobial freshness and reflective detailing, catering to the wearer who needs odor control during a long day rather than a bag-ready fabric.
- At 30.5 inches, the I.FIV5 inseam splits the difference between the Quince 30-inch and All In Motion 31-inch options, offering a full-length look on women 5'6"–5'9" without a hemming trip—a small but practical advantage for those who find 30 inches too short and 31 inches just a touch long.
- Among wide-leg active pants under $80 CAD, the I.FIV5 pant is one of the few options with Polygiene antimicrobial treatment; the Target All In Motion pant ($32 USD) omits odor control in favor of moisture-wicking, quick-dry, and UPF 50+, while the Quince Performance Tech Wide Leg Pant ($49.90 USD) adds wrinkle-resistance and UPF but also skips antimicrobial tech—making the I.FIV5 the better choice for long wear or studio-to-street use where staying fresh trumps sun protection or rapid drying.
- The I.FIV5's reflective logo adds subtle visibility for evening strolls or commutes—a detail absent from the Quince and All In Motion designs, which stay purely lifestyle in their styling. This makes the I.FIV5 a more pragmatic pick for those mixing athletic utility with a clean, non-technical look.
- The I.FIV5 pant's 86% recycled polyester / 14% spandex blend is identical in composition to the Target All In Motion pant, yet the $69 CAD I.FIV5 carries a $25+ premium over the $32 USD ($44 CAD) All In Motion—the difference buys Polygiene treatment and a Canadian design story, not a greener or more premium base textile.
How the wide leg performs for workouts and everyday
- The silhouette is built for yoga, Pilates, barre, and walking — the extra fabric makes it a hazard for running or cycling, so this pant is purposefully a studio-to-street piece for low-intensity movement, not a high-speed training bottom.
- The front pleats combined with the 14% spandex stretch weave create a fluid drape that opens during lunges and folds, letting the wide-leg silhouette flow with the body rather than binding like a static trouser.
- The recycled polyester-spandex weave is lightweight and resists wrinkles, so the pants pack flat and shake out ready — they can go from a long-haul flight seat to a yoga class to a sightseeing walk without needing an iron or looking like travel-worn sweats.
- The pleated front and functional slant pockets lift these pants beyond basic activewear, giving them a trouser-like polish that fits casual office or brunch settings — enabling the kind of cross-context versatility that modern athleisure demands.
- The wide-leg cut naturally channels airflow, and the recycled polyester-spandex fabric's lightweight weave amplifies that cooling effect — making these pants a practical pick for heated yoga, summer training, or any session where overheating is a concern.

Q&A
4 answered- Do the pleats create extra volume in the hips, and does the pant run true to size or should I size down?
- The pleats add a subtle volume through the hips, which is part of the wide-leg, relaxed silhouette. The stretch fabric and elastic waistband allow for a comfortable fit; we recommend ordering your usual size, but if you prefer less volume through the hips, consider sizing down.
- Is the lightweight fabric opaque enough to avoid showing underwear or skin when bending over?
- The black color and tight weave of the recycled polyester-spandex fabric provide good opacity. While the fabric is lightweight, the dark color should prevent show-through during bending, though we recommend checking the fabric thickness if you are between sizes or prefer full coverage.
- Does the Polygiene odor treatment remain effective after repeated washing, and are there any special care instructions to maintain it?
- Yes, Polygiene treatment remains effective after washing when you follow the care instructions: machine wash, no bleach, no fabric softener, and do not soak. The treatment is built into the fabric fibers and will last the life of the garment.
- Is the wide elastic waistband prone to rolling or twisting during exercise?
- The wide elastic waistband is designed to stay flat during movement. The elastic is sewn into the waistband casing to prevent rolling or twisting during exercise, though individual experience may vary based on body shape and activity.
