I’m a Loungewear Snob, and This Under-$35 Walmart Set Is Cozier Than Pricier Styles I Own

I’ve worked from home for the past eight years, so I don’t need the office-ready fashion that most people are looking for. Instead, I rely on raised lounge sets, and I’ve collected a lot of them. In fact, I have at least two weeks worth of comfortable yet stylish pieces in my closet. But none of my vacation outfits over the past eight years compare to this sub-$35 set.

Walmart sent me the Scoop ScubaKnit Cargo Joggers and Cropped Sweatshirt to test, and as soon as I took them out of the bag, I knew they were winners. Not only was the fabric silky and cool, but it was also lightweight and ultra-stretchy. The pieces were as soft as butter as soon as I put them on, and I’ve been living in them since I got them.

The fabric is easily my favorite feature of the set. It’s a rayon and spandex blend that’s silky smooth and cool. It actually feels like you turned your pillow over in the middle of the night and are wearing the cold side. The set is also my ideal medium weight. As someone who is often hot, I’m comfortable in it, but it’s still warm enough to wear in the winter. Plus, it’s breathable and doesn’t trap my body heat.

The fit is also perfect. As a plus-sized person, it’s hard to find oversized pieces, but the Scoop set provides that comfortable feel without looking sloppy. I sized up to get an even looser, flowier feel and I love the way they drape over my body without feeling restrictive and don’t look slouchy even though they’re loose. Additionally, pieces include sizes ranging from small to 4X.

Since I work from home, I also need a lounge set that will look good during meetings in front of the camera, and this one fits the bill. The cropped tracksuit features eye-catching dropped sleeves, a classic crew neck and elasticated wrists for a better fit. If I need to run errands after nine to five, I can easily tuck the front of the cropped style into cargo joggers and pair them with sneakers for an elevated look.

I’m not the only person who loves the set either. Hundreds of Walmart customers rated the top and pants five stars. One person said they were just as good as Lululemon’s loungewear, saying they felt just as good as a high-end brand and wanted a sweatshirt in every color. Others say they like that the pieces are sold separately so you can mix and match sizes based on what works for your body.

You can get my new favorite sweatshirt and matching cargo pants right now at Walmart, but you’ll want to grab them quick. Several colors are already sold out or available in limited sizes and are currently the best sellers. If you want to see even more Walmart lounges, keep scrolling.
