SOB - I have a big hole in my fave skinny jeans

I live in them. They are from Mint Velvet and the material is very soft. I'm a size 14 and they fitted perfectly. The hole is in the crotch area - think it's because I must have caught them on something cycling today and it's big so unsalvagable.

I have a pair of Next skinnies and they are ok, but get baggy very quickly and because the material is a bit thicker they aren't as skimming as the MV ones.

I tried on this seasons Mint velvet skinnies, but they are baggier and not as nice, so can I get some recommendations for a replacement please.

Don't laugh but M&S skinnies are lovely and they keep their shape. They're cheap too. Smile

Not laughing - honest ! Yes I see a couple that look as if they could do the job.

I got a big hole in my beloved M&S skinnies (jeggings!) two weeks ago (vvvvvsad).

Fortunately they were only £20 to replace and I am already wearing in the new ones!

This happens with my Topshop Leigh Jeans all the bloody time, each pair lasts 3 months 4 at the very most and then the crotch area rubs through. My thighs aren't even that big.

watching to see brand suggestions!

This has just happened to my fave skinnies too although think I've literally worn them out! Mine are Levi Curve skinnies from TKMaxx so I'm going to go in and find a duplicate pair or possibly even better when I have the cash!
