Hi

Has anyone bought from jaki.co.uk? I have seen these trousers, which look ideal, but I'm wondering what the quality is like. I'm also dubious that they can fit sizes 8-16? I'm quite small and don't want to end up with loads of material bunched around my waist...

Thanks!

"One Size fits up to UK 16"

I have a hard time believing that.

Yes was wondering about that. I'm an 8 - probably a similar size to the model in the pics. The trousers look good on her, but I can't see how they would also fit someone who is size 16. Where does the extra material come from?

@OhTheTastyNuts i had a dispatch email on Monday but Royal Mail still not updated the tracking so not sure what's going on. I will update you as soon as they eventually arrive

These look just like magic trousers to me, I've got several pairs, not purchased from this site though. They really are amazing trousers, flattering, wash well and can be dressed up or down. The white are especially good as an alternative to white jeans, I wear stone as a flattering alternative to chinos and the black are great for work, turned under to crop with ballet pumps and a shirt.

They have arrived @OhTheTastyNuts
Over-all I'm pleased with them, they ate very comfy and pretty stretchy. I am a 10-12 but they do feel as though they have plenty of give to them.

*are comfy

EllaPaella · 03/04/2021 14:53

Slightly more put together picture. I am definitely keeping and would recommend- can't say for sure they would fit up to 16 but i think they definitely would stretch comfortably up a couple of sizes.

Great 😊 hope you like them too

@EllaPaella - I’ve just been looking at these trousers as I’m looking for an alternative to jeans. Do you think they’d be any good for someone 5 feet tall with skinny legs?

Also - a bit off topic but what colour is your bedroom wall?! Grin

Takemebackto98 · 06/04/2021 11:26

@OhTheTastyNuts - did they fit? I’m small too with a similar dilemma. Everything is generally too big for me!

They haven't arrived yet @Takemebackto98 - I'll let you know when they do!

Well, thanks very much for helping me spend £100 during my lunch hour - khaki and grey camo joggers, a t-shirt and dress are now on their way to me 😅. I'll report back on the jogger sizing as a 12/14 😉

teawamutu · 06/04/2021 14:35

Dammit I want some too, now!

OhTheTastyNuts · 06/04/2021 15:54

Haha sorry! I ordered the khaki ones too. If they are nice, I might also get the Khaki floral ones! But I also tempted by Ella's grey camo ones...

I thought I’d better go ahead and order a pair before they all sold out!

sunshinesupermum · 06/04/2021 18:41

I've bought from them for years from their shop in Putney. They've only recently gone online but I'm usually happy with everything I've bought.

Thanks @sunshinesupermum. I didn't realise they were based in Putney. I used to live near East Putney station!

Just thought I'd update this for @Takemebackto98

The trousers arrived today. They are lovely and the quality/material is great, but they are too big - the waist is ok as it can be tightened, but they are far too loose on the bum/thighs. It's a real shame, as they are so nice! Although if they'd have fit, I'd have bought them in every colour, so maybe it's a good thing!!

Takemebackto98 · 08/04/2021 15:14

@OhTheTastyNuts thanks for the update but sorry to hear they are no good, that’s really disappointing. I’m guessing they will not fit me either then.

I ordered some “cropped” jeans that are trailing on the floor. I’m just debating if the amount of rolls it is taking to make them ankle length looks ridiculous or not. Oh to be taller!

Let me know if you find anything similar that is suitable and I’ll keep a look out too Smile
