The barrel leg gets a softer Spring update in crisp paper-touch cotton.
The Alma Barrel Pant in Pink by POL is a Spring favourite for a reason. Made from crisp 100% cotton with a paper-touch feel, it has enough structure to hold its shape while still feeling easy and wearable. The silhouette takes the popular barrel-leg trend and softens it into a more practical shape, with a wide leg that gently tapers towards the ankle rather than feeling overly dramatic.
The waist is particularly well thought out, with POL's signature flat waistband through the front and an elasticated panel at the centre back. This gives you the clean, tailored look of a structured waistband from the front, while the elastic adds flexibility and comfort through the back. A front pleat through each leg adds definition, and the cropped length shows off the ankle beautifully.
There are plenty of thoughtful details to appreciate too, including practical hip pockets, rounded back patch pockets with faux flap detailing and tonal topstitching throughout. Style Alma with the matching Alma Top for a coordinated look, or pair with the Dahlia or Rye knitwear for an easy everyday outfit. They're particularly good with a tucked-in top and a simple flat or sneaker so you can really see the shape of the leg.

With a simple tee: Tuck in a fitted or relaxed tee and add sneakers or flats for an easy weekend look.
With a blouse: Style with a crisp shirt or feminine blouse when you want to make the structured cotton feel a little more polished.
Show the ankle: The cropped length looks particularly good with low-profile sneakers, loafers or simple sandals that leave the ankle visible.
Follow the garment care label for best results. Handle the crisp cotton fabric carefully and wash according to the manufacturer's recommended instructions to help maintain the structure, shape and tonal topstitching.
