Not cut for short person

Originally posted on marksandspencer.ie

No, I don't recommend this

These pants seem to be designed for someone who is tall. I bought a 24 extra short. They hang too tight at the knee as though they were just cut off, rather than shaped for a short person. Only if I roll them up four inches at the waist, do they fit comfortably. The fabric is coarse.

Look great but poor quality material

No, I don't recommend this

These trousers look great on and I even had to downsize by one size. Initially they feel great but after several hours, the fibres were so scratchy they made the tops of my legs very sore and red. Several washes have not made a big enough difference, so I now have to wear anti chafe shorts underneath.

Very happy with my linen trousers. Good quality. I'm 5ft 4" and bought the Regular length. I would suggest sizing down from your usual clothes size.

Nice quality but fabric could be a little softer

Yes, I recommend this

Thought they would be nice for loose fitting linen in the hot weather. A little too tight in the waist size 12 bought . Also annoyed i bought, and the very next week were 50% off!

Poor quality - seam came apart after 5 wears

No, I don't recommend this

The stitching came apart before it was even washed. Also it is already bobbling (is linen supposed to do that?!). Had bought a similar M&S linen mix design previously and it lasted 3 years of constant wear in the summer season. Unfortunately Inthink the fabric has been changed to a cheaper, poorer quality. Hardly worth £30 for 5 wears ☹️ very disappointed and will be returning for a refund

Great

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely trouser. They iron well and super comfy. Perfect for my holiday. Bought two pairs in Navy and White. My only criticism is I had to order them online because M&S stock minimal Short Leg in store. Always loads of Regular and Long leg. Please do better M&S. We are not all built with giraffe legs!

Quality as expected

Love these trousers but they have a label at the back of the waistband as usual but they also have one at the front of the trousers on the waistband which is quite Long so you have to be careful it’s tucked on!!! I mean why ??????
