Joggers recommendations

I’m after recommendations for joggers before I go on a Vinted hunt.

I’d like some that are on the thicker side with a brushed lining, that are long (I’m 5”8) are high waisted with a tie, pockets (ofc), and ultimately that wash well and do not fade or go bobbly. Things like organic cotton and sustainable brands are also a good bonus!

Any ideas?

I only wear mine at home, so they’re maybe no use if you are looking for something to wear out and about - I recently got good pairs from Em and Ess, and also New Look. Both about the £20 mark and very cosy. I use them as lounge wear but they are from the proper clothes section.

As a fellow 5ft 8in woman, look in the men's department.

I like the ones with cuffed ankles, drawstring waist and pockets and when looking last year I found the women's ones were all flimsy thin fabric whereas the men's ones were longer and delightfully thick and warm. Tesco and Sainsbury's had some nice and comfy ones.

My na-kd ones fit the bill. I'm 5'7 with long legs and they fit me

I’d not considered men’s stuff but great idea. I know when it comes to baby clothes I go for boys’ joggers when I want thicker and nicer quality so makes sense it translates to adults!!

I would more than likely mostly wear them at home but the option for some that are smart/cosy enough to work for outside would also be great. Thank you!

I am tall so I buy straight leg joggers from men’s department in Em&Ess.

Heavier material, wash well. Reasonable price. Have a look.

I’m 5 ft 7 I like Bam joggers

I got some from Matalan over a year ago.
Search their site for 'slim fit mens joggers' They're black with a white drawstring and cuffs they're long enough for me and they're pretty thick and cosy. About £10-15 I think.
I've washed them loads and they haven't bobbled... (Unlike the women's ones I bought at the same time that have bobbled worse than anything I've ever owned.)

I just got one from H&M 62% cotton, warm lining and thick. It washes well
