14 Pairs of Side Split Pants That Go All the Way

Wide leg pants with a high slit in them are also known as side split pants, or slit pants. And they flatter every body type.

There is more than one type of slit pants or side split pants. There is the tailor made wide leg trouser, the track pant, the sweat pant and the bohemian harem pant, all with daring splits down the sides. The high waist and heeled sandals are a style from the disco era. But track pants and sweat suits are more street fashion. And then there are the loose fitting side slit pants.

Here are some of the best side split pants of the season as selected by Slutty Raver Costumes, all in one place, so you don’t have to shop around for them.
