Tommy Jeans by Tommy Hilfiger just released a new line of [90s-inspired sweatpants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/90sinspired-activewear). This season has been very influenced by [retro themes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-collection) for Tommy Jeans, so a new line of old-school-themed sweats makes perfect sense.

With a classic 90s fit, these sweatpants have a drawstring and large side pockets. The pants are covered in the brand's signature colors, red, white and blue, as well as "Tommy," which is written in a large white font down the front of the pant legs. Known less for comfort and more for style, these [new tracksuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/needles-fw5-track-suit) are a bold new addition to this year's line. All of these retro-styled sweats are cut to fit oversized, and as comfortably as possible.
