Does anyone have the Next high waisted skinnies?

and if so, are they any good?

Previous experiments with higher waisted jeans have resulted in them sagging badly and the crotch ending up several inches down - NOT a good look (although one that does seem to be deeply fashionable among the yoof).

But I do like the idea of skinny jeans that you can crouch down in (have toddler) without flashing arse.

Mine are in the bin. Within a couple of wears they were falling down and baggy all over the place.

If you do buy please try on a smaller size just in case.

I have some.

I quite like them, even though next stuff falls apart in minutes. They hold in my tummy.

I always wear a long top/tunic/dress with them so sagging in the crotch isn't too much of an issue, but I have to wash them after every wear to shrink the knees back.

Agree try to size down, but they were cheap and great if you can't do jeggings.

Littlewoods do some good ones. I have them in white and wore them all last Summer. The get a bit loose after a few wears,but oing back when washed.

I have them, my DH absolutely hates them for some reasonConfused. Probably because I bought them in my normal size and the crotch is admittedly half way down my thighs.

Anyway, I bought the next ones a size smaller and wear them constantly.
No muffin top on show and I feel really comfortable in them. For £25 I think they're a good buy.

thanks for replies. Annoyingly I went to my local shop and they didn't have them in

so I ended up getting the regular skinnies which are actually not too low-rise (admittedly not brilliant around the tummy area though). Got them in a smaller size and though it was tricky getting them on this morning after moisturising my legs, they are behaving pretty well so far...
