I bought a pair about a month ago - the indigo blue ones from m&s. They're a really flattering cut on me and have had lots of compliments. Also really like the idea they're fairtrade too. Was surpirsed they don't cost a fortune for the ethics and will be keeping my eyes open for more fairtrade clothes in the future. Hope fairtrade clothes really take off.

hello yomell, weel maybe fairtrade jeans shouldn't be dirtying the style thread?

or maybe people who wear fairtrade jeans don't come on mn much?

it didn't seem to get much of a response one way or another

I haven't bought any as I am 35 weeks pregnant but I would like to get some once I have given birth...
I prefer the style of the first pair as I think that cut (slightly flared) is more flattering to most women.
Bought some Fairtrade jeans for DS from M&S and they are v cute.
If you do order a pair, let us know how you get on.

Cool! Glad they're becoming more widely available.

I ended up buying a pair from adili, they had free delivery and an offer for 10% off AD12

I bought them because they had shorter leg option...

I am hoping they arrive tomorrow....

v nice... thanks for the link

hello panacotta, they arrived today, for being short they are long for me, but have a stitched on bit on the hem which would make them difficult to alter, I like them lots, but they are a lot different form my normal topshop ones, they are quite wide legged, but tight on the bum and hips, positive reactions so far, from my mum and dh
