Can anyone recommend a pair of jeans with stretch?

I know skinny jeans are so called not in fashion but they are the only style that suits me (being short with good legs). I am in need of one or two new pairs, ideally something that’s not too expensive as I am outdoors a lot and they often get ruined. Ideally with some stretch in them but not elasticated waste band (needs a fly) and a bonus if they come in petite/short.

Try Primark

I had a good pair from George at Asda, that was a few years ago, so not sure if they still do them

Hi @Lovemusic33 i lived in skinny jeans until i discovered jeggings from M&S 👌

Lovemusic33 · 16/04/2023 18:18

Thank you, I will have a look in my local Asda tomorrow, I do have a couple pairs from M&S but bought a pair on vinted and the fly keeps coming undone 😬, so far M&S have been the best fit.

Uniqlo is fantastic for their skinny jeggings. They never lose shape in the wash.

American Eagle super stretch/super super stretch/ne(x)t level stretch ranges fit well and are comfy. They have a short length that is perfect for me at 5'2.

Check ebay and vinted for cheaper!

TU Sainsburys. Loads on vinted. Have stretch and fit really well.

Levi 720s. They are available in loads of lengths, and waist sizes ( I get 28 leg)

These are lightweight and stretchy.

I had to send my usual size back though as they come up big on sizing.

Sorry just saw m&s isn't for you!

M&S Lily jeans - wash and wear really well.

This!!

I bought a Stradivarius pair from a charity shop and was surprised by the fit and quality. Go up at least one size though!

SpecialControlGroup · 16/04/2023 20:23

I'm also loving m&s jeans at the moment

Sprig1 · 16/04/2023 20:41

Another vote for Tu at Sainsbury's

Uniqlo is fantastic for their skinny jeggings. They never lose shape in the wash.

Annoyingly they have discontinued the high-rise ultra stretch jeggings (15% elastane), and replaced them with mid rise version that is only 3% elastane. Not anywhere near as stretchy or as flattering.
Gutted, the old ones were my live in jeggings.
