Black cotton work trousers

Being a certain age, i’m constantly hot and find my current M&S trousers a bit sweaty in the crotch.
Can anyone recommend black, high cotton percentage trousers that would go with a nurse’s top ?
Thanks.

I've just got some from H&M as I too wanted something a bit more 'breathable'
They have a bit of stretch in them too which is nice but definitely don't feel at all like polyester if that makes sense?
They were £19, so a good price too!

I'll see if I can find a link....

These from Community Clothing are good, and 100% cotton: communityclothing.co.uk/collections/womenswear/products/womensworktrousers-black?variant=20443144159286

Jigsaw and Boden also make good quality cotton trousers, but they are pricier. Maybe these: www.jigsaw-online.com/collections/trousers/products/slim-leg-cotton-chino-trouser-black-1

Gap skinny khakis are great but on the smalll side.

Which m and s one do have? The Mia slim are quite high cotton.

I've got some from Joules but tbh while they are 100% cotton they haven't washed well.

Sorry to disagree with a PP, but I personally didn't actually rate the Community Clothing ones. They reminded me of Dickies work trousers that tradesmen wear, so I sent them back.

M&S Mia trousers are a cotton blend and as an over 50 woman, I don't find them sweaty. I no longer wear the polyester feeling work trousers anymore, it's either the Mia ones or Boden Richmond ones.

H&M mens chinos- decent pockets and a good range of waist sizes!

Nitgel · 29/08/2021 13:04
