Are ankle length trousers a thing?

[Hoolajerry]

I tried on some trousers today that fitted me really nicely around the waist. They were wide leg and sat just above my ankle. I liked them but wasn't sure if that was a thing or I'd just picked up a pair of petite ones and I'd look like a tool(there was no label). Can anyone enlighten me please?

They are indeed a thing.

They have been a thing for quite a few years

Have you been living in a convent?

Yay. This makes me happy! Thanks

AtSea1979 a small, rural market town so near enough

I live in a small village but it seems EVERY woman is wearing these...except me...i’m still in my bootcut jeans

Very much so!

Also not to be discriminatory, a lot of men in my area are wearing them also

It's a curse. Especially during winter - what shoes and socks you can wear? To keep warm and stylis(ish) 😫

Definitely a thing. When I got my style analysis done she said 7/8 was a good length for me but I am bemused by the winter sock conundrum. I get cold feet.

What kind of footwear can you wear with them? Like winter footwear

I’ll be wearing mine with argyle socks and brogues or loafers.

Yeah, there's a gap. Socks look daft, boots look like Peter Pan 🤷‍♂️

You wear AllBirds sneakers with them or Ecco leather sneakers or brogues (no socks needed)

They need to be high waisted to be on trend

It's a thing, yes. A truly awful thing, but a thing nonetheless. All the students round here wear them, teamed with big clunky trainers.

Sadly, yes. For the short-legged amongst us, it makes us look like our ordinary trousers have shrunk in the wash or we've had a sudden growth spurt, like Ron Weasley in last year's dress robes.

I like my trousers to cover the tops of my shoes, which I am sure makes me look old fashioned, but I don't care - it suits me. I usually find that going for the long length, if there is one, or trying the Tall range, solves the problem.

I am so happy about this trend

At 6ft1 all trousers look short on me, now it's fashion. Hurrah

I think the slim fit ones look great but those baggy, cropped trousers look awful. Always accompanied by those felt looking clogs. Hideous.

They're not only a thing, they're my favourite thing! They say to show off the slenderest part of your leg and mine is my shapely ankles lol!

Actually finding it quite hard to find full length trousers at the moment.

I don't like them with a straight wide leg and shorter. They look great when they are narrower towards the ankle.i wear mine with boots.

I like it. Socks have to contrast.
