    Ditch the jeans

    Yes, I recommend this

    I bought these to travel in as I didn’t want anything tight around my waist. They were very comfortable and the Mocha was a good colour to go with a cream chunky cardigan and not get dirty. On return from holiday I’ve been thinking I could see myself ditching my jeans and wearing these a lot. Unfortunately I hadn’t realised these were in the sale as would’ve liked a black pair. I’m 5ft and I bought the short which were perfect length without having the legs rolled up.

    Comfy trousers

    Yes, I recommend this

    Delighted to have found straight leg trousers with a high waist and elastic round the middle. These carpenter trousers are stylish, and extremely comfortable to wear. Would love to have these made in a cord material for the winter weather.

    Great trousers, but size down

    Yes, I recommend this

    I love these trousers so much that I have 4 pairs in different colours. Very comfortable and a good alternative to jeans. The fit is big though. I'm 5' 4" and norally wear a 14, but a 12 short is a great fit.

    Different…

    Extremely comfy to wear & love the deep pockets. Can’t quite work out the twisted strap thing between pocket & leg seam - must be something to make it ‘carpenter’ ? Anyway, I love how they feel, they’re nice & roomy to wear. For me, they are very casual , but I really do like them.

    Carpenter trousers

    Yes, I recommend this

    I've just purchased these trousers in black ( the only colour left in my size) and I wish I'd done so sooner, then I'd have got other colours too.The fabric is a good strong cotton and the style is lovely and very versatile. They do come up slightly big but I find that ok in my usual size 8 petite. Mine have just come out of the washing machine, tumble dried and look fine. Well worth the money. I'm delighted.

    Not bad, not great.

    These trousers were okay but not 100% comfortable as I found the fabric a little rough so I returned them.

    Great quality but come up big

    Yes, I recommend this

    Loved these, great choice of colours and a flattering style you can dress up or down. Good quality material and the length isn’t bad. I will say they do come up a bit big though, usually a 14 but a 12 was a better fit. Very comfortable to wear

    New straight leg

    Yes, I recommend this

    Good style for those who don't want too wide trousers. The straight leg and elasticated sides make for a lovely fit. Fabric is heavier than expected.

    Perfect

    Yes, I recommend this

    I wasn’t very hopeful receiving these as so many trousers lately are too long, too wide. I’m 5 ft 1 and a bit, and usually a size 12. I ordered the 12 short, and they were perfect. Lovely material, beautifully made. As others have said, the carpenters loop was a bit silly, so cut it carefully off. I’m so pleased with them and might order another colour.

    Nicely fitting on the body but...

    Yes, I recommend this

    Nicely fitting on the waist and hips but, for me, a little wide on the legs. I bought a petite size 8 and would have preferred to legs to be less baggy and in proportion to my body size. Not too keen on the extra strap between the back pocket and side seam. Unfortunately, the green pair were slightly bigger than the navy blue, so I returned the green ones but I preferred that colour.

    Cotton rich carpenter trousers.

    Lovely, comfortable trousers. High waisted and a soft cotton. As previous reviews have stated they do come up on the large side, definitely need to size down, I am 10/12 and size 8 fitted me well. Have bought four colours.
