Alternative to Next relaxed skinny jeans

I recently bought Next relaxed skinny jeans and I love the fit on the leg, slim all the way down but not tight. Unfortunately their current batch seem to be made of terrible material - I bought a size down but they stretch so much that they're totally unwearable so I'm planning to return them. Does anywhere else do a similar style of jeans? High-waisted would also be a bonus.

M&S five pocket jeggings? The ones in proper denim, not the flimsy fabric. I live in mine and they don't sag or give at all. Go at least a size down. M&S vanity sizing is ridiculous.

I'm afraid I can't offer you an alternative but I agree with you totally - M & S relaxed skinnies from 2013 - all gorgeous, I bought loads - proper jeans material. This year dreadful material, almost like polyester, so baggy and ill fitting. I am a 10 in next relaxed skinnies and even the 8 was falling down. I am also on the lookout for alternatives so will be follow this thread with interest.

Dogrilla - thanks, I will try those. Are they properly skinny all the way down? I really like the Next ones on the leg as they were sort of halfway between skinny and slim.

101handbags - most of the reviews on the Next site say the same thing! It's ridiculous, I am a large 16 ATM and bought a 14, can pull them off without undoing them.

Luna! Me too with the Relaxed Skinnies. They were just right in the shop but look crap once you've worn them for a few hours. Mine manage to be baggy round the thighs but stay tight round the calves. I look like I'm wearing sodding jodhpurs!
