No help at all but they are gorgeous and I am now keeping my fingers crossed they will still be available when I am paid in two weeks!

Decathlon joggers are slimmer cut.

WhoStoleYourHighHorse · 30/12/2023 17:50

@drspouse - could you link to the particular ones, please?

TokyoSushi · 30/12/2023 17:51

Oh they are lovely! 😍 But ££££ 😞

Jennywren2000 · 30/12/2023 17:56

I’ve got these. They’re so expensive but sooo nice. They’re really soft and just perfectly shaped. As a jogger fan, I haven’t found better ones.

Rainbowshit · 30/12/2023 20:17

Oh I'm looking for something like this too.

Mine are a couple of years old, sorry. These look a similar cut - they have a dart at the knee which stops it bagging.

They look similar to M&S trousers that were very comfortable but too short for me (I need a tall/long). I'd imagine a petit on someone who wears a regular would look similar 😅

WhoStoleYourHighHorse · 30/12/2023 21:13

Thanks @drspouse - I will take a look

Yumyummyyum · 31/12/2023 06:41

I ended up buying them and they are so nice. I love the fabric (so soft) and the cut. I have a top from them in a similar material and it washes well too (no bobbling etc) so hoping the joggers will last me a long time (that’s how I’m justifying the price to myself!)

@Yumyummyyum Would you say they come up true to size? I have never bought from this brand before...I would normally be an XS but would have to get an S in the black. Am sorely tempted but the £££££££. Ouchy. And no whiff of a sale either.

Yumyummyyum · 31/12/2023 07:04

@friskybivalves I think they are. I’m normally a small or size 10 in bottoms and the Small in these fit me well.

@Yumyummyyum so glad you love them. They look lovely, I’m very tempted to get a pair.
Would you say they are smarter than regular joggers and the sort of thing you could pop to the shop in?

Yumyummyyum · 31/12/2023 08:17

@Apple2023 Thanks. Yes they look smarter to me than regular joggers. Although it’s a comfy fabric the cut is more ‘trouser’ than regular ‘jogger’ so looks less casual in my opinion. I think not having the cuff bottom (which I always associate with joggers) makes them look a bit less jogger-y.

Apple2023 · 31/12/2023 08:34

@Yumyummyyum thanks! Think I might treat myself to a pair too, sound perfect.

brogueish · 31/12/2023 08:35

People Tree do a pair called “Sasha” that are similarly cut but a bit longer from the looks of it. Nice fabric. You can usually get them on Amazon.

Yumyummyyum · 31/12/2023 08:46

@brogueish Thanks! They look good. I need a second pair of joggers so might order these.

May I ask how long the joggers you bought from Varley are please. Don’t want them too cropped! I am 5ft 6inches tall. Thanks.

Yumyummyyum · 31/12/2023 13:10

@LindaDawn I’m slightly shorter than you and they aren’t cropped on me. They come just above my ankle. I think the model is probably very tall so that’s why they looked cropped on her.

Hi @brogueish - do these look like joggers or could they be worn a little more formally. I have some ponte trousers which I wear to work but I'm after something more casual but not joggers. Did any of that make sense Smile

brogueish · 01/01/2024 22:10

@WhoStoleYourHighHorse They’re a decent weight cotton jersey, more casual than ponte but similarly weight probably. They are not cuffed so don’t have a strong “joggers” look, and I wouldn’t wear them for work. Smarter than most joggers but not “smart joggers”. I’m not sure if that helps at all?!

Thank you @brogueish - yes, that does help. I think I imagine myself wearing them for a day's sightseeing on a weekend city break, casual but a step up from joggers. Think I will get a pair and see.

Before I splash out on these (https://uk.varley.com/products/the-slim-pant-25?variant=41088197623923) anyone know where I can get something similar at a lower price point? Thanks!

Hi @Yumyummyyum, how would you rate your new joggers, please? Still undecided about whether I can justify the price.

Yumyummyyum · 07/01/2024 17:32

@WhoStoleYourHighHorse I’m really liking mine. Will probably get another pair. The closest looking seem to be the People Tree ones someone mentioned above but they aren’t available in my size so can’t compare to those

I ordered the Varley joggers and I’m so happy with them. Great quality and the fabric is so soft.
