Comfortable trousers

Yes, I recommend this

These are really comfortable easy wear trousers and true to fit size. The only negative is they have bobbled on the inner thigh parts after wearing for the first time.

Fabulous comfortable summer trousers

Very comfortable in heat. Look great. Works as casual or a bit dressy. Bring back the sage green colour from last year! I love both white and green:)

Perfect for an older lady!

Yes, I recommend this

Bought a pair of these for my 87 year old mum, for Christmas. Have just been requested to order another two pairs for her. Shes not a wide leg trouser person so the tapered ones are ideal for her and perfect for the hot weather!

Really nice linen trousers

Yes, I recommend this

Perfect linen trousers for the summer. I’ve not worn them yet. But on trying them on, they were a perfect length for me…nice material and style…I love the slim leg style…not a fan of a wide leg style, so these were perfect for me.

Perfect sizing and style. Loose but not ultra wide

Yes, I recommend this

These trousers are a really good fit for me; I’m 5’9” and long is perfect although any taller would perhaps find them a little short. They have been laundered and not shrunk in length or width. The sizing is slightly generous but it doesn’t really matter as they are a loose casual trouser. I have purchased 2 pairs and the sizing is consistent. The linen is a good weight. I am planning on purchasing more.

Awful fit and quality

No, I don't recommend this

Unexpectedly poor for M&S. The fit was terrible and made me look boxy and the material was really thin and transparent. Returned straightaway
