So, I bought those 5 pocket M&S jeggings that everyone on here raved about

... and I can understand why! They're fab. loads of stretch, very soft and really flattering (as jeggings go). I am really pleased! Just hoping they don't sag as the day goes on. I sized down, as advised, and tried on in store as they vary from item to item.

Do you mind posting a link to them please? I'm struggling to find any that fit nicely!

Sure, They are these ones. They come in other colours too, and some of them are on sale Look at all of the super skinny jeans reduced from £22.50 on the website.

They're my favourite jeggings, which makes it incredibly frustrating that I just got an email from M&S customer service saying they're discontinuing the range - hence why they're reduced online and many sizes are out of stock - including mine.

I'm so angry about it - I can't find jeans that fit me anywhere else that aren't stupidly expensive. Why they're discontinuing them is a mystery to me. Customer service just said 'I hope you can find something else suitable in our range'.

No, I can't M&S, that's the whole reason I was buying them in the first place. HmmAngry

Stock up if you can I suppose.

That is such a shame finest. I bought dark blue and black, and would like some light denim ones. My size wasn't available in store and isn't available online, so its a shame I won't be able to get them.

Yep, says Gary at M&S HQ. Sad

I don't know if they've replaced them, because I found these, which I've ordered:

WAIT A SECOND. Those second ones have 5 pocket jeggings in the URL but not the name. I think maybe they're the same but rebranded? How confusing Confused

I've never bought from m&s what's the sizing like?

abeandhalo · 28/09/2016 11:42

I have them in basically every colour. I think that they discontinue them every season because they then produce a new range of colours?

I'm suprised people say size down, I find them very varied, some colours I can barely breathe in, some are about right, but rarely too big!

A lot of the trousers and jeans/ jeggings are all being rebranded in M&S customer service guy should of known that. Take it from someone that actually is in the know for that company.

I certainly didn't need to size down in them

Agree that the sizing can be varied - my dark blue ones are tighter than the light ones. Same size on label, and both washed around the same amount so one hasn't shrunk!

Thanks user - seems all is not lost then! I might get back in touch with them and let them know they've got staff who don't know what they're talking about. Hmm

MN S&B has cost me a fortune - I've just ordered four pairs to collect in store (will need to try for size and get two refunded). What with this, Hush, Baukjen and beauty products I'll look better but be skint!

Hopefully I'll like them - I need some new jeans, but was overwhelmed by the choice and couldn't be bothered to do lots of trying on last time I was in there.

Have ordered two pairs to store. Can't run the risk of you lot clearing all their stock! Wink

Why don't they do a size 6 in short? Surely a size 6/8 is more likely to be short then medium. Rant!

If you're 5'2 would you go for short or would they be ankle grazers?

Don't, whatever you do, put them in the tumble dryer....they shrink!

Rivertam - I'm 5'2 and a half. I find the short are ankle grazers and buy regular length.
