Boys’ Slim Leg School School Trousers

Bought these for my grandson to start his new school year last Thursday. M&S were the only ones who had his size (12 to 13). Bought two pairs in charcoal, the only colour allowed for his uniform and slim leg ( they're not allowed skinny fit). He was really pleased. He said they were really comfortable. I've always found the M&S trousers the best quality and fit.

Purchase every year for my son, who is going into year 9, but sizing is a little off this year as came up small so had to send back and reorder for the size up.

Next size up for my son as his last ones were a little snug- but I couldn’t even do these up

I couldn’t find the slim fit/slim leg trousers that fit my normal sized boys so well last year so ordered these instead. These are quite baggy on the waist/bottom but just about doable for two of my three boys,. For my third boy who is narrow but not skinny these completely swamp him, even having sized down, they are far too big on the waist/bottom (and much too short in the leg). These trousers would be great if you’re children have stout bottoms, avoid if the don’t or are long and lanky (like so many boys).

My son is a bit on the skinny side but still fitted him well good fit and fabric.

I purchased 2 of these trousers and one was fine, but the second pair had the belt loop sewed onto the adjustable elastic on both sides, so that the waist could not be made smaller. Unfortunately, I had already washed the trousers when I discovered this, so I was unable to return it. Not the quality that I expect from Marks and Spencers!

Nice style and extra long leg means no alterations. At £12 excellent value.

I bought two pairs online and both had faulty stitching. The elastic had been sewn into the waistband and couldn't be adjusted.Both pairs will be returned and I am wary of ordering others as it seems it may be a common fault.

I’ve tried lots of different makes of school clothes for my son. He is very hard on his clothes, especially trousers. These trousers looked as good at the end of the school year as the start. The adjustable waist and hems are fantastic.

These are promoted as slim fit trousers however they are very baggy and completely oversized for age 5-6. I also was surprised that there is no actual zip on the front of the trousers for undoing them when using the bathroom facilities, only the option to pull them down from the waist. For the first time I’m quite disappointed with the product, however the quality for money and the actual quality of the trousers was good just a shame the design is so poor.

I don’t think these are slim leg - my son is only just 4 and is quite small for his age but the age 3/4 trousers are drowning him, very baggy in the leg and room for another child in the waist! Actually, maybe I’ll pal him up with a friend and we can send them in one pair of trousers - money saving scheme!!

What a shame that these trousers are not being checked for quality control. As other reviews have said, you cannot use the adjustable waist as the belt loop on the trouser waist band is sewn through the elastic to adjust the trousers. This makes the trousers far too big on the waist. 2 out of the three pairs were faulty. Very disappointed!

These are lovely good quality trousers. The only slight problem I have with them is that they are not really slim fit. My son is average sized - maybe even a little on the fuller side, and they are quite loose on him. I think he might prefer the skinny fit ones. Perfect fit at the waist and height though.

these should be described as regular straight fit, they are not slim at all. but my son liked them anyway
