Not legging, not jeans, what are they called?

[poppym12]

I've been searching for some quite tight, soft, stretchy, thick grey trousers for ages. Not leggings, skinny jeans or jeggings though. I've tried those. And I want them to be a smooth colour, not faded or marled. And I want them to be the colour you'd image a baby elephant to be, mid grey rather than pale or charcoal.

Please find them for me

Jeggings - try m and s

I have margarita. The ones I found in there felt really smooth and from a distance looked like very cheap denim.

How about:

white stuff

john lewis

Do you mean treggings?

I think treggings is the closest name for what is in my head. I've just ordered some from next as they look to be the right elephant-y colour I'm after. Probably have to send them back as I'll look like momma elephant.

I think ponte is the material the sort of thing you have in mind are usually made from. Boden used to do some, which I have.

The boden ones look ok but they don't have grey.

Cos , the slim ones with side zip?

JCrew may be worth looking at too

No grey on cos or jcrew website. I'm obviously extremely untrendy

I really hate to say it but the best treggings I've seen are from Dash, the grannies favourite.

Ah sorry I missed that you wanted specific colour OP

The next ones seem OK (but I've only tried them on so may end up walking like a toddler with a wet nappy after half an hour).

These Espirit jeggings have a jean cut but don't look denim and are baby elephanty I think.

Ooh, those look good lucked. I like esprit. Good quality t-shirts. Seems they do 2 shades of elephant too
