Recommendations please

Looking for ankle grazers not tight on leg but not baggy to wear in summer

Flattering - I have short legs

For wear with trainers and Birkenstocks

I usually wear long jeans with wedges but want a more relaxed look for summer

Any budget considered - usually wear 7 for all mankind

Thanks in advance

Came on to say those exact Marks ones

norma1980 · 04/04/2024 22:18

Thank you they look great good colours - I'll order the denim

I've got Lands End ones in several colours. Sale buys.

MaryFuckingFerguson · 05/04/2024 08:15

I have those jeans. They’re much nicer in rl than in those awful pics. The way they’ve styled them is atrocious.

AdultFemaleWoman · 05/04/2024 08:19

Ah so it's you lot that have bought the size 8 short leg then 😂😂😂

ladybirdees · 05/04/2024 08:33

The Maislie ones by Paige. They are perfect for the summer, range of colours and so soft.

Aydel · 05/04/2024 08:57

I have the Harper cigarette jeans, which are nice. You might also look at the slim fit cropped jeans in M & S.

EllaPaella · 05/04/2024 08:59

I'm waiting for the Rose crop jeans to arrive from Arket, not slim leg and not wide either. I'll let you know what they're like when they arrive.

ComputerInitiateJump · 05/04/2024 08:59

I like Sienna jeans from M&S and get them in extra short leg which graze ankles at 5 foot 3. They're not tight but not loose on me - just right. They are a lightweight denim so are good for summer.

Blueskysinjune · 05/04/2024 08:59

Zara marine? I have some in black and thinking about getting another colour for for the summer. I find them very flattering, although the pocket situation is annoying.

Levis 501 crop jeans. You can often get them on Amazon for a lot cheaper than they are on the levis website. I have a couple of pairs of them and they're really comfortable and are a good ankle grazer length.

Sparkletastic · 05/04/2024 11:02

I've got the M&S cropped jeans too and they are 👌🏼

I managed to bag the M and S slim fit cropped online today after stalking the website daily. Tried them on in store but they only had short leg and they really were cropped not ankle length. The colour and fit though are amazing, will look great with Birkenstocks. Description says high waist but they are mid rise imo which suits me better.

Jumbojem · 05/04/2024 19:50

I got the M&S cropped boyfriend ones 2 years ago and they are still my favourite spring/summer jeans.
Agree with the poster who says they look much better in real life than the awful photos (especially the black, which manage to not even look ankle grazer on the model?!).

Stickycurrantbun · 04/04/2024 21:29

Ooh any ideas if these would be a good length for me - I’m 5 foot 2. Always usually need petite in any jeans - short legs!

I just bought these. They are a perfect length and I’m 5’2”. I bought the short. I went to the store because I wanted to get the exact size and I am fussy about the “feel” of denim.

I adore them - and I can’t wait to wear them!! They didn’t have the black in my size so I will order them online.

I'm also 5'2"! I got them in the shorter length. I also got the cropped jeans in M&S but in regular size (so ankle grazers on me!)

karenm51 · 05/04/2024 20:53

Another vote for the m&s Harper jeans - loose on the legs but not baggy balloon jeans! I live in them when the weather gets warmer.

OatFlatWhiteForMe · 06/04/2024 00:25

F&F Tesco high rise, slim leg ankle grazer are completely underrated and about £20.

norma1980 · 06/04/2024 01:39

Many thanks everyone - I may end up ordering a few pairs based on recommendations made here. Didn't consider m&s for jeans but really impressed by choice on offer

Breaking up the Marks and Sparks love in to say Fat Face, much better quality as don't go baggy at the knee.

Faceplantagain · 06/04/2024 07:34

Another Fatface fan here -the Chesham girlfriend in short works well for me. They are more expensive than M&S but really do last.
