Help me find the perfect jeans!

Please help me! I’ve always been a flares over skinnies girl but since watching The Serpent I’ve been desperate to find the perfect pair again (I used to have some but they all either no longer fit or wore through): mid rise, low/no stretch (ideally 98%+ cotton), extra long (34 inside leg), under £50.
Sadly they don’t seem to exist. If anyone sees these elusive trews please can you share links?

Is this the look you're after?

Too much elastane in these but they're mid rise, flared and extra long 34"

They don't quite meet all of your brief but I've had some success with similar types in New Look recently.

@waltzingparrot yes I’d seen those and like them but always find the high elsstsne ones go baggy. I’ve never had river island jeans though do you know if they’re worth a try?

I always buy river island jeans, they wash well and comfortable.I just need to loose a stone to fit back into them!

I know it is not everyone's cup of tea, but Shein have lots of jeans made of real, non-stretch denim. I thought they would be cut for tiny East-Asian women but they are actually quite long.

@IndominusRex Not had them myself but did look up what 'Elastomultiester' is, as it makes up 4% of the fabric content - it's purpose is to make the fabric stretch but snap back! Useful.

Thanks will have a look at River Island and Shein!
