I bought some because they were from the Tall range and fitted lengthwise.
But I don't think I looked at the rest of the fit.
They are ballooning out like a big top.
You could fit me and the Chinese Olympic team in them.

I haveput them on ebay and vow never to buy them again.
Why do they make the legs so wide?
I have some from Zara which are so much slimmer.

Nicest linen trousers are Asdas. Different lengths and good thick material.

George should pay me commission.

I need a 35 inch inside leg.

I agree, they are awful. I ordered some from the Tall section, the length was great but the bottoms completely covered my feet!

Far, far too wide. I sent them back.

I've got some lined linen trousers from the TU range at Sainsbury's. Very cheap and a good fit, they wash well too.

They have done them for years and years.
No change to the styling at all.
All those women in danger of being whisked off like Dorothy in a stiff wind.

Lol... I bought some from the petite section at next because the length was good. They are very voluminous though and I only wear for the most casual of days. Next sizing seems to be getting more generous overall. Am an 8 in most places but have to buy a 6 in next.

In fact ive been quite impressed with the TU range this summer. They have the only shorts this year that are reasonably priced and fashionable so i bought three pairs. But will look at their trousers now.
