Comfy, affordable harem pants for around the house / school run

[Abitlosttoday]

Can anyone recommend some comfy pants like these for around the house, doing the school run at a push? I want a nice thick waist band and cropped or ankle skimming would be good (I'm 5'5). Decent cotton, flattering cut?

I like these ones but they look too long and I'm not convinced the quality will be good. They're also sold out in my size (12) and colour choice.

I don't want to pay more than £30.

TIA.

I was going to suggest Matalan, I have some there from last year and they’re sort of similar to your picture but slightly less ‘haremy’ and more cropped jogger. They’re so comfy I bought two pairs. However I don’t see the exact pair on their website.

Before the Matalan ones I had an amazing similar pair from Tesco which I wore into the ground over a few years.

Have also had more expensive cotton pairs from Boden which are lovely but I like the stretchy knees on the cheaper ones.

Not harem, but next drawstring joggers are life for me! Comfy, super soft, lightweight. I have 2 pairs!

I have bought quite a few clothes from this company and they are nice quality although I haven't bought their harem pants.

M&S have some but viscose not cotton

Hush Alexa Harem pants are lovely but you will have to wait for them to have a sale to get them in budget.

Not the cheapest but made from cotton and environmentally sourced. Good quality too.

Fat Face Lyme trousers - I have loads of pairs. You can usually pick up a pair on eBay for less than full price.

I would go with Asquith London.
Since I started wearing them, the fabric is so comfy I don't want to wear anything else.

Usually they are pricey, but they run regular sales - and with voucher...they also last ages...and ethically made.

Following for ideas, also looking for similar but I'm a size 18-20. Need to be cuffed ankles as I'm short! Like the look of the m and s ones and the fatface ones upthread

I have the Fatface ones and my only complaint is the elastic around the ankle is a little tight and leaves a mark.

These are on ebay. Too big for you size sixteen but there are often similar ones in different sizes BNWT on ebahttps://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284617124137?var=586227807369&_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D250627%26meid%3D64a5c2e7b66b40908145e8b4e320f9f8%26pid%3D101195%26rk%3D5%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D404313270808%26itm%3D586227807369%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DSimplAMLv11WebTrimmedV3MskuWithLambda85KnnRecallV1V4V6ItemNrtInQueryAndCassiniVisualRankerAndBertRecallAndPBoosterV3a&_trksid=p2047675.c101195.m1851&amdata=cksum%3A28461712413764a5c2e7b66b40908145e8b4e320f9f8%7Cenc%3AAQAIAAABUOF2C1v4PvLuUMt94LTx3USaOPJBiGrcV6%252Fms53nuTmrZ3dyQNOibl5UuvBUL5wYmcuhlieo3faZqx%252BhFc6Ti9XirkkCUJ2LfxVb%252B9nxabunfUYGsMpL1Y%252FxmkjPHNCqMgXo2ECai9wWaAOy6fJOFjS7TkqZLrYQtQTPx2SgzGk2atrz%252FGt3SOEyrMLxOO%252B%252FUZz0hkIIiPFnWnqh%252Fs52lt3vNWbBmquTmZNWjXHCH6zYTVIzAXFQ0iDTCOwZ9dq3kWiSEn2EHa%252F1k32LkZJ5df%252F7dhF4zl4MOkzWZkoWK93jDTU9Y%252Fr9Qo1g3b7lHX1Vt7cjuChAPH7vYwWyxr4iNltdNAtMdQruK%252FfVJ9OofgyNSZRnE7%252FSxcDyPPZoh%252BESUShzPffgfGqRO5K6eZJ9zb9ldLV9p99lTlwjCuEpO2kKJqzmKfM1wlfdWPZjrX7M3A%253D%253D%7Campid%3APL_CLK%7Cclp%3A2047675y
