Product Insights
The Stretch Satiny Universal Pant from Contemporaine, priced at $125 CAD, delivers sustainable comfort with TENCEL lyocell that wicks sweat, reduces odor, and resists wrinkles, while the twill weave ensures fluid drape and color retention. However, the off-white shade may be slightly sheer in direct sunlight, and the blend shrinks 1–3% per wash, preserving fit. At 76% off the original price, it offers high value compared to similar Tencel pants.
Verified claims
- Moisture control
- Wicks sweat and reduces odor, keeping fabric dry and fresh.
- Sustainability
- Closed-loop solvent recovery and significantly less water than cotton.
- Moisture wicking
- TENCEL lyocell actively pulls sweat away from the skin.
- Odor control
- TENCEL lyocell reduces moisture to limit odor-causing bacteria.
- Color retention
- TENCEL lyocell absorbs dye deeply for strong colorfastness, and the twill weave resists abrasion, so the off-white color resists fading and the fabric resists uneven wear.
- Opacity
- The lightweight stretch twill with a satiny finish is generally opaque, but Off White may not be fully opaque in direct sunlight.
- Shrinkage stability
- The TENCEL lyocell blend has a typical shrinkage rate of 1–3%, helping preserve the 27-inch hem and semi-slim fit when washed cool and line-dried.
- Sustainable production
- TENCEL lyocell uses approximately 10 L of water per kg of fibre and recovers over 99% of the solvent.
- Value
- At $29.94, it's 76% off and costs less than similar Tencel pants.
- Drape
- The twill weave and TENCEL fiber create a fluid drape from hip to hem.
- Comfort
- The TENCEL lyocell nano-fibrils wick sweat, keeping the pant cool and dry all day.
- Wrinkle resistance
- The twill weave resists creasing and recovers after sitting.
- Fabric
- Twill weave distributes stress, minimizing pilling and wrinkling.
- Material
- 33% cotton, 33% TENCEL lyocell, 29% recycled nylon, 5% spandex; TENCEL wicks moisture and resists odors.
- Sheerness
- Off White may be sheer in direct sunlight; nude undergarments recommended.
- Back pockets
- Trompe-l'oeil back pockets are completely flat, eliminating bulk.
- Fit
- The elastic back waistband provides a flexible fit that adapts to movement, helping prevent gapping and rolling down.
- Competitor price comparison
- Full price 25% above, but sale price 62% below Banana Republic Factory equivalent.
- Care
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and hang dry; dry cleaning also works.
- Stretch and seated comfort
- The stretch twill fabric and slightly elastic back waistband make the pant comfortable for sitting and bending throughout the day.
- Inseam length
- The 27-inch inseam (size 4) lands at the ankle bone for most wearers, exposing a sliver of ankle without reading as a high-water crop.
- Shoe versatility
- The semi-slim leg tapers cleanly to the ankle, so it pairs well with ballet flats, loafers, pointed pumps, and sleek ankle boots.
- Rise and tuckability
- With an 11.5-inch front rise, the mid-rise waistband sits at the mid abdomen, low enough for untucked tops but high enough to hold a half-tuck securely.

A comfortable everyday pant you can dress up or down
Contemporaine's Stretch Satiny Universal pant is designed to drape to your silhouette with exceptional comfort and versatility, making it an option for daily wear across different settings. The mid rise and slightly elastic waistband at the back pair with an ankle-length semi-slim leg, belt loops, slanted side pockets, and trompe-l'oeil buttoned back pockets for a polished, easy-to-wear look.[2,3]
Pockets for everyday carry, front and back
These pants have inset side pockets with openings along the side seams, handy for slipping your hands in or keeping small items close. Two symmetrical welt pockets at the back each close with a single button, offering more secure storage for essentials like a card or cash.[3,4]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Stretch Satiny Universal Pant Fit: Semi-Slim Leg, Mid Rise: Choose this if you want a versatile ankle-length pant with a semi-slim, slightly tapered leg and mid rise (an 11.5 inch front rise and 27 inch inseam in size 4), backed by Simons' description of a flawless drape, exceptional comfort, and great versatility. It is made of lightweight stretch twill with a satiny finish — 33% cotton, 33% TENCEL lyocell, 29% recycled-nylon, and 5% spandex — with slanted side pockets, trompe-l'oeil buttoned back pockets, and a slightly elastic back waistband. Note that the Brown color is listed only in size 4, while Off White comes in sizes 4 through 14, and the fabric can show mild natural creasing near the knees and seat.[2,3,4,5] | Universal Textured Crepe Dress Pant Fit: Semi-Slim Leg, Mid Rise: Choose this if you want a versatile, polished semi-slim dress pant for office or all-day wear: reviewers report the breathable, non-restrictive cut stays comfortable through hours of sitting or standing, and the crepe keeps a crisp look with minimal upkeep. It suits straight or gently curved body types and runs true to size for straight figures, made from textured stretch polyester crepe with 58% recycled polyester. Be aware the hips and thighs run tight on curvier figures—sizing up can leave the waist gapping—the rise sits high on petite frames under 5 feet 4 inches, the inseam wears cropped on those over 5 feet 9 inches, and the 100% polyester fabric can feel clammy in warm weather.[6,7] | Linen-Cotton Blend Universal Pant Fit: Semi-Slim Leg, Mid Rise: Choose this for polished office days, conferences, or smart-casual outings: reviewers describe a soft, non-confining linen-cotton blend with a flattering drape and a professional look, with details like pressed front creases, a concealed fly, side slant pockets, and belt loops, plus a matching blazer sold separately. Note that reviewers report the pants run small with a higher rise and wider leg than the semi-slim, mid-rise description suggests, so sizing up (and possible hemming, since the length runs long) is common. The linen is also described as thicker than typical summer-weight linen, so it may feel warm in peak heat and suits mild spring or fall weather better.[1,8,9] |

Tres frippant
Disappointed for me
I really liked how these looked online and was desperately looking for a pair of navy pants. They arrived as predicted; they felt nice; they had this added feminine touch of a floral inside lining around the waist. I put them on and unfortunately I couldn’t close them. It is like the entire pant was meant to fit me but not to close. It is like the cut was smaller at the top. I was thoroughly disappointed and had to return them. I have bought other pants from Simon’s before but the first time that my regular size could not fit. I really think it is how this pane was structured. Too bad.
