Sorry that the picture isn't great.
I'm looking for an alternative to skinnies and I like this style. I don't know what the shape is called.
Has anyone seen similar?
Thanks

Cropped wideleg?

Back in the 70s we would enquire after this look by asking if your shoes had argued with your trousers.

agree cropped wideleg.

Funny how a few years ago everyone was going on about cropped pants making you look short, now you can't find regular length pants! I personally really like them, but some can look frumpy in them depending on the styling.

Thanks for the replies. I've looked at cropped wide legs but a lot seem to be wide on the whole leg but I think the ones I'm looking for are a bit slimmer on the thigh.

@Chatanooga1 Your comment made me laugh.

I think they can look nice with a plain t-shirt and white trainers.

Bay City Rollers?

I just came on to say that this style of jeans is known as the shang a lang but @CatsForLife beat me to it!

Are they loon pants ?

Iamthewombat · 26/04/2021 11:15

I though loons were tight at the top then fulsome at the bottom? And full length?

I might be wrong though. I was a baby during the heyday of the mighty loon pant.
