Girls’ Regular Leg Pure Cotton School Trousers

Bought for a daughter with sensitive skin and because they were the only pair available online which strictly fit our school's uniform policy of 'straight leg'. disappointing that for the first time ever one of my children has been hauled up by the school for poor uniform due to the colour of the trousers now being suspiciously navy and generally scrappy. It would be helpful if M and S and other retailers would actually pay some heed to the uniform policies of schools which are generally far more restrained than the options on offer! As ever, there is also an imbalance between practical styles for boys and girls, one option for straight leg in girls and several in boys.

These are not made from school uniform material and simply wouldn't pass aa school uniform in our school. They are chino trousers and unsuitable for school.

Nice heavy material. Good fit, not baggy

Originally purchased size up however no need as size is perfect. Good quality. Washed and irons well.

The fabric is absolutely terrible to wash. After wearing them for a bit they looks scruffy and filthy, so you need to wash them every day. Very difficult to iron too. To large in waste so it's looks funny. Very disappointed especially that I was always very pleased with every M&S products.

Initially, these were lovely, soft, black trousers. But by half term they had a navy hue, having lost the blackness. They hold any crease too well and accrue any "fluff". My daughter was also asked by her teachers if the trousers she was wearing were even school trousers and i admit by this point they were looking a little scruffy due to the flaws mentioned. My sons trousers, purchased at the same time look much better, still smart, crease where they should and still black! I would not recommend and took mine back, if they are being questioned by school as being proper school uniform, then in my opinion they fail at being labelled school uniform. Unfortunately, I think there was only one review when i purchased. Also M&S, why are girls school trousers only sold as single items, unlike the boys?

Very poor quality, terrible fit and arrived looking dirty/dusty.

Winter is here and wanted my daughter to wear trousers on swimming days to avoid tights or socks. Material is cotton, just imagine like chinos therefore will not be smooth and will crumple easily but indeed better for Kids’s with sensitive skin. Will need to iron if one can be bothered.

I love the fact that they're 100% cotton and they look very smart. Quite sturdy too. The only issue is that they wrinkle quite a bit but that's to be expected with cotton. Very good price for the quality.

As a family we are attempting to cut back on microfibres from clothing which don't degrade. So far have only found these as a school uniform alternative so very pleased. Perhaps mention this in your blurb?

Trousers were miles too big for my daughter although size guide indicated they were the right size

My little daughter is very picky when it comes to trousers. She wanted to make a fuss yet again when I asked her to try these on, but as soon as the trousers were on she was happy and said that they feel very soft against her skin. I am more than happy with these trousers and I've bought the same make/model for my son as well.

I purchased three pairs of these trousers because they were regular leg and my daughter's school does not allow skinny fit. They were a little big but I was happy with this as they had an adjustable waist. I thought the fabric was a slightly stiff but assumed they would probably soften with washing. I washed the trousers on a 15 minute, slow spin, 30 degree wash a couple of days before school started and found that they had shrunk to the point where they only just fitted my daughter around the waist (without using the adjustable waist at all). Upon closer inspection, I realised that all three pairs were different lengths, depite the fact that they were all supposed to be the same size/leg length. The fabric had not softened and the trousers were extremely creased and difficult to iron. They came with a crease down the middle (which is what I wanted, as the school requires 'tailored' trousers) but this washed out and, despite my pressing it back in, it dropped out again after a very short period. The fabric creases very easily during wear and seems to trap fluff at an alarming rate. To add insult to injury, when my daughter wore them to school, she told me that when a teacher was checking pupil's uniforms, she asked my daughter if she was sure they were school trousers, as they looked like an 'odd fabric.' Overall these were a disappointing buy and I have had to invest in alternative trousers from another retailer to ensure that my daughter looks smart at school.

Really not keen on the fabric - it picks up the slightest speck of fluff. My daughter said they aren't comfortable to wear, and the pockets do not lie flat.
