Super comfy but smart looking trousers

Do they existed?! Want something that i could literally lounge around in as I work from home and like to feel comfortable but also can go out in as I often have to pop out. I can never be bothered to get changed so just end up going out looking a right mess!
any suggestions, would be willing to pay £60/70 maybe £80 for right item but obviously bonus if cheaper!

I like the “Finsbury pant” from Saint & Sofia

Do they run true to size?

Great tips. Commenting to return and use as a guide!

I have no idea how to quote a post, but yes, yes, yes to the wide legged M 7 S jersey trousers mentioned above! I live in them! Handy for after swimming, lounging at home, out to the shops, to travel, out for a meal etc. So comfy to wear and flattering on. They even come in an extra short length, which is handy for shorties!

Few mentions of these! Deffo will be getting a pair. Do you think petite is best for me, I’m 5’4 x

My M&S wide leg trousers are the comfiest trousers I own and feel smarter than lounging in joggers.

The M&S wide leg ones for me too. They are so comfortable but look smart. I don't have to iron them either!

Love the Saint and Sofia range too, comfy to wear but look smart. Easy to wash too.

M&S do loads of stretchy waisted smart looking trousers.
They do, including ones that are as comfy as leggings but much thicker material, a smooth waist and wide legs.

Yes, I live in them,they're fantastic.

Starfish slim leg trousers from Lands End.

I have these in 4 colours. Super comfy, as comfy as leggings but much thicker material. I think they do similar in wider legs styles as well.

Nichebitch · 07/01/2024 21:03

Oooh @YorkieBarn good ones! Might have to buy them

I wear Uniqlo wide leg flannel trousers (the plain ones not the ones that look like Pj trousers!) they're as comfortable as pj's (I wfh) but just look like normal wide leg trousers if I need to pop out. I have 4 pairs and I wear them on rotation!

Do they need ironed? I don't iron a thing 🙈

Not if you put them in the dryer. I do iron but someone up thread said they tumble dried theirs and they came out fine.

Thank you! That's what I wanted to hear

These keep coming up on my Facebook feed and look like just the job. Do you have a pair of these trousers?

stolenstoat · 08/01/2024 09:29

Yes - I love them. They are smart and comfortable. Also excellent customer service. I found them true to size, although the long were very long! I'm 5'8" and bought the 34" leg - they are a bit on the long side but look good.

RampantIvy · 08/01/2024 09:35

Do they shrink in length when washed @stolenstoat?
I have often had to return trousers that have shrunk after one wash, even though they were washed at 30 degrees.

SerenityNowInsanityLater · 08/01/2024 09:37

Muji and Uniqlo trousers are my ONLY go to.

No - but I washed them on a 30 delicate cycle just to be safe

RampantIvy · 08/01/2024 16:50

Thank you @stolenstoat.
They sound great.
