I've been wearing cotton stretch chinos from H&M for work and I managed to slip on the way home tonight and I've torn my last pair. H&M don't sell them any more and I can't find any of the same type anywhere else in my size (26-28)

Any ideas? I need cotton due to eczema on my legs. Sorry about posting here, doing it for traffic.

Thank you

I've just Googled cotton stretch chinos and theres shit loads to choose from, why not just do that? Cotton traders, jd Williams were two companies that first jumped out? Just google that's what it's for. I'm sounding like a right cow but when a particular lady on my social media asks the parents does anyone know where I can get a navy Adidas girls top from? Um just put that in Google's search engine pet 🤦‍♀️

Cotton traders don't do the size I need.

JD WILLIAMS chinos all seem to be cropped or mens? Can you share the links you've found? They need to be black mind. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I know the ones you mean OP, I had a few pairs a couple of years back.

Have you tried Zara?

Menaimum · 03/02/2020 02:57

Try Lands End and Bon Prix in UK, old navy if you can afford shipping

kiaorasvetlana · 03/02/2020 05:48

Sea salt do some good trousers that are similar, I forget what they are called now but I live in mine.

UnexpectedItemInTheShaggingAre · 03/02/2020 05:50

Gap?
Or see if someone is selling a pair on eBay/Depop?

Lojoh · 03/02/2020 06:06

Bon Prix sells cotton stretch chinos up to size 32. Also plenty here: www.curvissa.co.uk/fashion/trousers-shorts/chinos/_/N-1iZ1z141w2Z1z141fg

They come up big

Lojoh · 03/02/2020 06:11

ASOS too

Queenunikitty · 03/02/2020 07:05

Uniqlo have some cotton chino style trousers and small sizes

drspouse · 03/02/2020 07:07

UK 26-28 dress size or waist 26-28 or Euro size 26-28 (which I'm guessing is about size 0)?

IHadADreamWhichWasNotAllADream · 03/02/2020 07:15

How tall and how curvy are you? If you’re really desperate could you get boys pairs and get them taken in at the waist?

OnlyAboutTheGarden · 03/02/2020 08:02

Ebay? You can search by brand too so you might find a reseller that has old stock.

OnlyAboutTheGarden · 03/02/2020 08:07

A reseller has them in different sizes

Dress size. Working on slimming but I have PCOS so it's a bit of slog.

I've got the ASOS ones and something about the cut rubbed me raw on my top inner thigh. Never usually happens.

I'd seen the Bon Prix ones but find their sizes to run really small.

Does Gap go big enough?

WrongKindOfFace · 05/02/2020 12:10

M&S? I’ve had ankle length Cotton trousers from there, although not sure if they do longer ones.

I’ve also had cotton trousers from Primark.

KenAdams · 05/02/2020 12:21

Try Roman or Simply Be.

TreestumpsAndTrampolines · 05/02/2020 12:26

I got some chinos in a couple of colours from Asda - they had virtually identical mens ones too (well, except bigger pockets - it was bizarre) that DP got. I was a 22/24 at the time, so I know they go up at least that far, and they came up big too, so worth trying on.

Streamside · 05/02/2020 12:28

Lands end have great chino type trousers, the sizes are a little small but they're beautifully made.

QuestionableMouse · 05/02/2020 12:58

Lands End have some fabulous clothes but they're a bit too expensive for me at the moment.

Simply Be only seem to make trousers in polyester which irritates the crap out of me. Same with wool.

Hadn't thought of Gap, not sure they do fat girl sizes. My local Asda has limited clothing but I can call in a bigger one to look.

M&S have cotton joggers or polyester blend trousers only in my size.

Primark don't do bigger sizes ime.

Thanks for all the ideas and help though.

Anything available from Land's End on ebay second hand?
That's usually my go-to for the DCs' clothing as fussy DS only really likes cotton stuff too.
