Lightweight denim-like cotton baggy trews that taper or are even cuffed at the bottom. Saw these and didn't have the presence of mind to ask. Tia

They sound interesting. Are they 3/4, 7/8, full length?
Are they elasticated waist or with a zip?
Are they like harem pants or japanese type trousers?

I think they were buttoned up, more structured than harem. Bit 80's but in a good way.

Sounds like chambray.

You are right they could be chambray! But I still can't find the perfect ones. You get some right horrors when you google chambray

I found some which are not as nice but worth a punt at this price

Any idea of what sort of shops they might have come from?

I've an idea of a Yoshiko Tsukiori sewing pattern but I can't find a pattern online.
A few years ago, I saw somebody wearing a garment that was exactly what I was looking for. I went after her and asked. It was vintage.

This style?

I would maybe look in Topshop or H&M.
The ones you linked to look a bit too much like jogging trs.
I had some lovely H&M harems but sadly I wore them until they wore out.
Google harem or lantern pants.
