Easy everyday cords

Yes, I recommend this

Great everyday black cords in contemporary shape. Tried several other barrel and carrot shapes but this one fits the best with flattering fit around hips and waist - others are always bulky/pouchy around the waist.

Bought these as I wanted something smart casual for work. Less exaggerated than a barrel leg but still very comfy. The cream is a nice color

MUST HAVE TROUSERS

Yes, I recommend this

These are FAB - so comfy, the fit is fantastic, the material is plush and has some stretch but not too much. Every time I wear them, I get compliments. I would love to see them in a dark brown & navy. If you’re on the fence, buy them, you won’t regret it.

These are lovely cord trousers. I got the black and love the shape, and length. I got the short length which fitted 5ft 3ins me perfectly. They are very good quality and excellent value.

Good fit but a fabric a bit thin

Yes, I recommend this

Love the colour and fit, wish the fabric was a bit thicker as whilst wearing they lose shape a bit around knees etc.

Flattering fit

Yes, I recommend this

I bought these for work where the code is generally smart casual. They have decent pockets and belt loops which are both essential for me. They are a flattering fit on my large hips and stomach and they are comfortable. I think they will be useful.

Brilliant trousers

Yes, I recommend this

I have several pairs of similar trousers from several, much more expensive brands, but these are by far my favourite! They are just the right amount wide without looking dumpy. The waist on me at size 12 is nice and high and not too tight (unlike most of my other trousers a.t.m.) and the hips and bum fit nice and close so they are quite flattering overall. Length is good - I'm 170cm with 31cm inseam and these hit at the right spot to look modern but keep me from exposing my calf when I cross my legs. The cord is soft and luxurious and the black colour is deep and rich. They do attract lint and cat hair a bit, but not more than any black cord material. Excellent buy!

Cord Carrot Trousers.

Yes, I recommend this

I was a bit unsure about cord in these trousers but the cord fabric is quite fine. They fit quite well (size 16) and I have got use to the carrot shape.
