We consider a dilute fully spin-polarized Fermi gas at positive temperature in dimensions $d\in \{1,2,3\}$ . We show that the pressure of the interacting gas is bounded from below by that of the free gas plus, to leading order, an explicit term of order $a^d\rho ^{2+2/d}$ , where a is the p-wave scattering length of the repulsive interaction and $\rho $ is the particle density. The results are valid for a wide range of repulsive interactions, including that of a hard core, and uniform in temperatures at most of the order of the Fermi temperature. A central ingredient in the proof is a rigorous implementation of the fermionic cluster expansion of Gaudin, Gillespie and Ripka (Nucl. Phys. A, 176.2 (1971), pp. 237–260).
