Slim Fit Boys' Pleat Front Trousers with Supercrease™

I purchased 2 pairs of these school trousers for my Grandson whose waist is very slim. These trousers fit beautifully and look so smart.

These trousers are fairly good quality but they are much too big in the waist for a slim fit trouser.

Great fit, lovely to have slim fit trousers for my slim but tall son. We need another pair though and there are none to be had anywhere! It's the beginning of September and there are only age 4-6 available online; and none at all in Guildford store. Combined with a complete lack of any white school shirts at Guildford store (except age 4), I have to ask M&S: is this really how you want things to be? It's a well known fact that children grow substantially during summer holidays (mine certainly have), so surely it's reasonable to conclude that having stock of basic uniform items would be helpful in September as well as July? Next year I shall buy three ages of everything in July!

Why change the sizing from age specific i.e. 8yrs, 9yrs, etc. to now being 9-10 years, 11-12 years and so on? Also last year could buy longer and shorted length in the slim fit (was called modern fit last year) but can't this year, only in the classic fit, so to get a longer length I have had to buy a larger size which looks big and baggy defeating the object of "slim fit " and looks rubbish. The material also is very thin and see through. Both my boys are not happy with the fit of these trousers, and nor am I knowing how good they looked last year.

I have been buying these trousers for my son since the day he started primary school up until now (he's 14 now), and they are a perfect fit, easy to wash, its great as the waist is adjustable especially when my son has a small waist and long legs,

After ordering 4 different styles of school trousers for my tall skinny teenager, we have gone for these slim fit trousers in a size up. There is no growing room in leg and the waist is still too big! Have pulled in-so still have a baggy bum! Was so excited that m and s were doing skinny/slim fit school trousers . I know it's not just me who has nightmares trying to get school trousers for a boy with a 24" waist and 32" leg. Slimmer please m and s! P.S. the slim fit shirts are fab!

Just to clear it up (see first review) these trousers are part of the slim fit range for skinny kids. These are specially cut for slim kids (like plus fit or sturdy fit for bigger children). It is confusing as there are also skinny or slim leg styles, which are normal fitting but with slim legs. I always buy from this range for my skinny Jims so thanks for making them again this year!

Bought these trousers as the modern fit ones i normally buy were no longer available. My 10 year old is very slim therefore needs adjustable waist that dont look baggy on the legs. They appear to be very similar to the previous purchase, so hopefully will look just a good, wash after wash.

Size chart states 26" waist for age 11 and 26.75" for age 12. So, why does the waist size in the age 11 state 25"? These trousers are a good fashionable style, it's just the age does not match the size chart - which ends up wasting mums valuable time. Slim fitting means closer fitting, not smaller sized. Order at least one size up, if not two.
