Capris - Mid calf to just below the knee?

Pedal pushers long crops?

Must get on I have my DDs 50th birthday party to get ready????

Both Robell and Roman have cotton crops in lots of lovely summery colours

And Pedal Pushers?
My late mother used to have very strong views on pedal pushers?

By crops I mean mid calf.

Shorts are between mid thigh and knee.

By 7/8ths are above ankle trousers

Long -traditional length.

And Capris ?!

Thanks for the link MiniMoon I had no idea what a cotton crop was, now educated! Not for me though, I’m either shorts or jeans.

Not what I would have understood by “crops” or cropped trousers, these remind me of those awful Bermuda shorts that you only looked good in with legs up to your armpits (and rarely even then)
Certainly not for 60+ aged knees!

Brax.

They do all sorts good quality and incredibly comfortable.

I have two pairs of cropped in a lovely yellow and mint green . Both elasticated waist. But all their trousers are good.

Suits and formal gear ?? No way . Jeans, tunics, Zara dresses, linen crops.
Wow I’m worried now.

Magic! They're lovely. Good to have a reccomendation. There are so many not-so-good brands out there.

Please don't take offence Lucca but I would never have put you in these - on GN you build up a picture of people in your head. I had you in suits & formal gear! ?

Don’t like the patterned ones for sure!! And the fit looks very unflattering.

Ta. Didn’t notice the different colour printing due to smeary glasses!

Have a look at these.
I bought a top from them. The quality is good. I'm thinking seriously about buying some of their trousers.

I’m looking but I can’t see anything!!

I just bought some from Matalan. Plain cotton, very comfortable at the elasticated waist. I think they were about £10. Just size down as they are very roomy!

I’ve actually bought more from Matalan over the past year than any other shop. Their sportswear is really good and I seem to get a lot of clothes for very little money.

Weird fish have some nice ones in the sale, think they go up to size 18.

Has anyone any recommendations for cotton crops with a comfortable waist? I don’t want to pay a lot for linen ones - just something fairly forgiving to wear over summer (long may the sun continue).
