Good quality Capri pants/trousers which don't bag at the knee - where are they?!

I bought some from Primark (I know) and they looked good on and then by the afternoon they were all baggy round knees and bum. My friend bought some £50 from M and S and the same happened to hers!

Anybody found any good ones? Am size 14/16 generally fat legs (Blush) but good ankles. Find straight leg/linen trousers just too vast all over once big enough to fit over fat stomach. I sound lovely don't I Grin

I recently bought some from Dotty P's. Only worn them twice but have held their shape well so far.

Dotty P you say?! Can't remember last time I went in one (our high street one has closed) - I'll try when I'm in town, thanks!

Boden excellent quality, worth every penny as last ages. Look out for sales/offers, they have lots on.

Ruddy boden, all the decent colours in the bistro crop trousers are either sold out or a billion years wait, WTF is their problem with stocking Angry

The boden Chelsea trousers are actually better than the bistro crops, have more stretch so no bagging

Yes, agree the Chelseas are better. Definitely recommend.
