Where can I find decent boot-cut jeans?

I always used to just be able to buy a pair of Next boot-cut jeans and know they were the perfect fit, however a couple of years ago they completely changed and now I really struggle to find a decent pair.

I'm looking for boot cut that just sit nicely on the waist (not too high, not too low). I don't want to pay ridiculous prices but I do wear them a lot so I don't mind a little splurge.

Ideally from somewhere on the high street or online with free delivery / returns.

Any suggestions? Thanks

Charity shops have loads of them.

I am pretty sure M&S still do some bootcut jeans and they do all different rises.

I wasn't being funny or anything. Would Gap or Lands End have some, or a department store. The dept stores I occasionally go to have 7 for all mankind, levi's etc.
You could try online sites for jeans makes.
Other suggestions could be M&S, primark or Sainsbury's

I have absolutely no issue with buying from a charity shop but I've not managed to find any that fit nicely in our local ones :)

I've looked in lots of places but haven't quite found the right pair. I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a specific make / brand that they've bought similar to what I've described above.

I wasn't suggesting you were, but MN used to be sniffy about bootcut so it might have looked like I was being rude.
Personally, I like straight jeans but a slight bootcut can be flattering. I'm a keen charity shopper and have had some real bargains - the 2 makes I mentioned in pretty much 'as new' condition. I also see Gap and Per Una ones regularly. With Gap & M&S, watch the sizing as they tend to be generous. I would say the Per Una ones are probably closest to Next.

I've had some nice ones from Bon Prix online, they were only about £17, nothing fancy but comfy.

I've got some nice ones from FatFace that I love and are really comfortable.

I'm gonna give these a go in the new year. They haven't been recommended to me, but I quite like the look of them

I really like those Monsoon ones!

M&S do a slim boot cut which is nice and is just under £20 I think. They wear well and don't fade. Think they do light blue, deep blue and black.
