It's a shame that they don't fit you. I bought them too following the recommendations here and I love them! Gutted to have to put them in the wash today following a major baby puke incident. Perhaps I should buy another pair!

Legologgo · 13/04/2014 13:58

take them back then

bishboschone · 13/04/2014 14:18

Yeah I think I will.. I have washed them but it didn't help. They fit for 5 minutes and then grow .

All the Next jeans I have ever brought have done this.
I got good skinnys in New Look, high waisted ,indigo blue and a good fit.
and they were about 11 quid.

Legologgo · 13/04/2014 16:44

you prob should have got teeny size

JenniMoo · 13/04/2014 16:47

Sounds like the next jeans I had. I thought they were far too tight, could only do them up lying down, but in desperation ripped the tag off and wore them. By the next wear they were fine...

NorbertDentressangle · 13/04/2014 16:54

I tried some on after reading the recommendation on here (and I loathe Next so it was the first time I'd set foot in there for years).

I sized down but they were still really baggy and odd - too stretchy by far, almost like leggings. I guessed they would end up baggy after 10 mins wear so didn't buy them

bishboschone · 13/04/2014 17:06

I'm annoyed with myself as I don't normally buy next jeans for
Myself but I thought id give them a go on mumsnet recommendations . Also the reviews on line are good.. I still have the tags and bag with receipt in so I will take them back but I hate that awkward feeling when I have worn them but surely they are not fit for
Purpose if they grow so much so quickly .

I took some principles jeans back years ago for
This reason and the woman was very stroppy with me but I stood my ground . If I buy one
Size I expect them to stay that size within reason .

I also tried them after recs on here. Exactly what you describe. I couldn't get into the size below the ones I bought, but these are hopeless. Also same issue with GAP jeans. I won't buy jeans from either of these places again after wasting my hard-earned cash.

Really, I would take them back. You've not much to lose.

Legologgo · 13/04/2014 17:09

flog them here!

Legologgo · 13/04/2014 17:09

like LEGGINGS norbert? Mine are quite loose!

bishboschone · 13/04/2014 17:14

I have sturdy thighs and they are loose fit .

Legologgo · 13/04/2014 17:14

i have slim and am normally a 12. I have a ten long

Featherbag · 13/04/2014 17:15

I've got my new ones on now and love them! Didn't size down but I like that they're not skintight.

PrimalLass · 13/04/2014 17:18

Mine are not baggy i have fat legs

I am a size 14 and buy the 12 long.

superzero · 13/04/2014 17:20

I'm disappointed with mine too,bought only after recommendation on here.Colour is nice (grey) but fabric feels thin & cheap and has stretched after a couple of hours of wear.Even cheap New Look jeans have been better than this.

Ledkr · 13/04/2014 17:20

I bought mine today.
I bought the right size but I'm pretty curvy around my hips so I knew they'd be ok. They are exactly a relaxed skinny on me, bit big in the waist I suspect ill need a belt soon.
I like them.

Legologgo · 13/04/2014 17:21

i wonder if its NOT the true denim ones that are a bit shit then?

Follyfoot · 13/04/2014 17:29

Thats exactly the problem I had with Next jeans too bish - despite being really fitted at first, I could take them off without undoing them in no time. Horribly baggy things.

Have mentioned these before, but the best jeans I've had in years were from M & Co. Their straight legs are perfect for me, but they also do a slim fit. I buy one size smaller than usual, they are OK to do up first time and havent gone at all baggy. Its not a shop I'd usually go to but I think the jeans won some sort of award....
