Where does a 40+ year old look for yoga trousers/jogging bottoms?

To wear at home. I'm size 12. Definitely looking for wide-legged (not ridiculously palazzo though, just not tight-fitting).

Good quality that will hold up to being washed a lot, to be comfortable without looking shabby/tacky. And that can be bought online!

Where should I look?

forgot to say i am 5 foot 3 so also shorter length would be good!

TK maxx is your friend.
I have several Manuka pairs, excellent quality.

I second tkmaxx. I was in our local one yesterday and you couldn't move for fitness wear .

I bought some gap balance pants. They are very comfy, though you may need to see if they come in different lengths.

I love Sweaty Betty for gym stuff, but obviously only buy in the sale as I find their full priced stuff a bit spendy for me!

Sweaty Betty is fabulous. They have great variety and will specify how 'opaque' materials are for your modesty. Not cheap but wash well and last ages!
You may also want to consider the style of yoga you're doing.

Enjoy! x

Lululemon also lovely if you're in a Sweaty Betty type price range. And Hush.

Sweaty Betty Om pants. I have had a pair for at least seven years, worn every week and they still look new. Short length

I also like pure lime, particularly the roll top. Normal length fits me.

I am 5ft 3 too.

I have a few pairs from sainsburys that are comfy, wear most days after work!

Thank you! Will check all these out :)

Sportsdirect.com have lots, and yo can choose the length

Be careful about Lululemon. They look great, but there was a huge uproar last year about them using cheaper, inferior material which caused them to go a bit 'see through' when damp.

The issue caused the chairman of the company to resign.
