Elastic waisted trousers

Elowen33

I prefer structured trousers as if they feel a bit tight I will watch what I eat the following week.

I agree, I've definitely put on weight since I gave up on more structured trousers - but that was because I wasn't able to find any other trousers that I liked.

I make my own trousers, I have a relatively small waist, and find that if they fit on the waist they're too tight on the hips. I'm not keen on elastic waist bands.

I can recommend pull-on jeans from Cotton Traders. They are indistinguishable from zipped ones as long as a top isn't tucked in. They have all the usual pockets, rivets and seams.

I bought a pair of these jeans. Unfortunately they do nothing for me. I am a short apple shape and find they are baggy in the bum and thighs. Not a good look on me! Shame as they are comfy so I just wear them around the house. I'm sure they are fine on taller people.

I am only 5ft3in and quite chunky and the 29in length are fine on me. In this style I can go down a size, but for others from CT I have to size up - quite annoying!

Thanks for this. I’ll be buying a pair of these. I’ve just bought straight leg Sienna jeans from M&S. I’m between sizes so sized up and they slip down. No good at all.
I’m hoping these Cotton Traders don’t do that?

I hate the transatlantic way of referring to trousers as “pants” !
And waistcoats are “vests”
So for them going out in your vest and pants is not at all the picture it conjures up to me

🤣🤣🤣

Choked on my 🍷

Why is there not a white wine emoji?

Eek!! Nooooo!

The NW of where as a matter of interest?

I'm 59 ...a size 8 to 10....I've got a good few pairs of elastic waisted trousers....all wide leg....my winter ones include a brown tartan pair I wear with Chelsea boots....and some plain black thin cord ones....and all my summer ones are linen or very thin cotton....most are from high street shops like pull and bear.....h and m ......I wear my summer ones with birkenstock or trainers....I love these type of pants ( as we call trousers in the NW!) ..... why are people mocking them? 🤔.... I think mine are quite stylish 😊

Bamboo yoga pants from BAM are my wardrobe staple - they have soft fold over waistbands and so comfy. I also have their jogging bottoms which are warm and cosy. I also love my linen bubble trousers from Sahara for the summer which are super stylish and shock horror ! - have elasticated waist but as I wear a t shirt or linen top with them they aren't on view..

I followed your link and was all set to buy a pair until I saw they were to be delivered by Evri so cancelled the order. Evri have wasted days of my life and raised my BP just too much!

I think they’re fine as long as you wear a top that covers the waistband. Then who would know?

I like stuff with elasticated waists. I don't see why it is a big deal. We are allowed to wear what we like

Without fear or favour!

I’ve just changed into some comfy ones after a bit too magnificent a lunch at Mums ( which ended in a huge apple crumble and custard) which I did justice to ( twice) 🤭

I wear all sorts of trousers including jeans although I do not find jeans particularly comfortable, warm or smart.
I have some very stylish elasticated trousers which look a lot better than some of the jeans I see people wearing.

Definitely jeans as a daily go to for me, however I have two pairs of very smart dressy pull on elastic waisted trousers that make me smile with pleasure and the fact that they remind a lot of my mother and crimplene!!

I wear leggings and flared yoga pants around the house and obviously to the gym. But if I’m going out I’m a jeans girl . I don’t have smart trousers for some reason.
For a long haul flight my flared yoga pants are a godsend . Smarter than leggings and still comfy .

I have several pairs/styles from M&S which have zip and fasten front and elastic on the back, one style has belt loops which is good if you don't want the elastic back seen - wear a belt, though does really defeat the point of the elastic. It gives you choice. I do wear jeans but not with an elestic waist as I dont think they look as good, most jeans these days have a small percentage of elastane. All said, the older I get the more I embrace comfort - it's been a long time since I wore heels

I love elasticated trousers and have all sorts of them. Being independent minded I have never succumbed to the pressure to squeeze myself into stiff waisted trousers!
