Wholesale Sweatpants and Joggers: Every Bottom for Every Budget
Wholesale bottoms are a harder category to navigate than tees—the range runs from $11 budget fleece sweatpants to $28 women's performance leggings, and the right choice depends entirely on who's wearing them and why. Bulkthreads' sweatpants and joggers collection covers the full spectrum: classic open-bottom fleece, fashion joggers, athletic performance pants, women's fitness bottoms, and specialty styles—all from recognized wholesale brands and priced for bulk buying. Here's how to find the right fit for your order.
For classic, high-volume sweatpants where per-unit cost is the primary driver, Gildan and Jerzees own this tier. The Gildan G182 Adult Heavy Blend Sweatpant—a 8 oz 50/50 fleece in the same fabric family as the G185 hoodie--is easy to coordinate matching sets without sourcing from multiple brands. The G184 open-bottom version offers a slightly roomier leg opening, and the G182B Youth Sweatpant extends the line into youth sizing. Jerzees matches this tier with the 973 NuBlend Fleece Sweatpant. Built with Jerzees' pill-resistant NuBlend construction, the 973 holds up noticeably better through repeated washing than standard fleece at the same price point. The 4850P Super Sweats Pocketed Sweatpant steps up to a heavier 9.5 oz construction with side pockets — the right call for school spirit wear, team warm-ups, or any order where the pants need to survive a full season. Youth sweatpants are covered by the 973B Youth NuBlend.
For fashion joggers — the tapered, ribbed-cuff style that's become the standard for lifestyle merch programs and streetwear-adjacent brands — the Bella+Canvas 3727 Unisex Jogger is the most recognized option in the wholesale market. It pairs directly with the 3001C unisex tee and 3719 hoodie to build a cohesive retail-quality matching set. The Lane Seven LST006 Premium Jogger is a strong alternative at a slightly lower price point, with a comparable soft hand feel and a tapered silhouette that photographs well for merch drops and branded apparel programs.
For performance and athletic bottoms, Sport-Tek is the dominant brand in the collection with the widest range of styles. The ST237 Sport-Wick Fleece Pant and matching YST237 Youth version bring moisture-wicking fleece to the team warm-up category, making them a natural pairing with Sport-Tek performance tees for matching athletic sets. The PST74 Wind Pant is a lightweight shell pant for outdoor athletics, and the women's lineup extends into dedicated fitness styles: the LPST890 Ladies' 7/8 Legging, LPST891 High Rise Legging, and LPST95 Ladies' Tricot Track Jogger cover the women's activewear bottoms category that few other wholesale brands address directly.
For specialty and fashion-forward styles, the collection includes a few standouts worth calling out. The District DT2800 Women's Flannel Plaid Pant is a casual lifestyle bottom in a woven flannel plaid — a completely different aesthetic from anything else in the collection, suited to fall and winter lifestyle merch programs. And the Port & Company LPC140P Ladies' Beach Wash Cloud Tie-Dye Sweatpant arrives pre-dyed with a cloud tie-dye effect — no custom dyeing required, which makes it a low-friction option for lifestyle brands and resort shops that want tie-dye product without the production overhead.
