M&S ‘cosy’ high-waisted jeggings

I have the navy pair witzend, yes they are well comfy, love them. Funnily enough am collecting a black pair later from click and collect……

I love M & S high waisted. Sometimes with their ordinary jeggings I have unpicked the few stitches on the inside that hold the waist bit back. This releases it and when unfolded gives a tidy extra couple of inches length making them even more comfortable.

I have similar from Aldi (probably half the price of M and S ) but they are warmmmmm I had the same ones last year so now have two pairs and their thermal tops are good too

Of course, when I went to order another pair in a different colour, they were nearly all out of stock (except sizes 6 and 8) and my size showed up as ‘only one in stock’, so I nabbed it - or thought I had, only for it to come up with ‘out of stock’ when I tried to pay.
This happened twice!

And then they had the nerve to send me an email saying there was something forgotten in my basket! ?

M&S really are hopeless sometimes. Barely the middle of October, and already they’ve run out of what is clearly a very good, cold-weather item.
Yet racks and racks of truly horrible other things in the shop ( I did go and hunt, to no avail).

In fairness to M&S ? you leggings are probably sitting in Felixstowe port waiting for a HGV driver to pick them up.

Do they come true to size?

Yes, I dare say, MerylStreep, but in M&S it’s almost a given that they won’t have one of the very few things I want, in my size/colour, when there are literally thousands of things I wouldn’t want as a gift on the rails!

I will admit though, that there was one recent exception - not long ago I went mad with my knicker drawer, threw out all the aeons-old ones, and replaced with a dozen lovely new 3 for 2 pairs from M&S.

Well, I’ve just ordered a pair of black, regular, size 16 high waisted cosy jeggings! I am so easily tempted.

Thank you, Witzend. I’m venturing to M&S today, so will look out for these cosy jeggings. I ordered knickers on line yesterday, as I can never find what I need in store. ?

Hope you’ll be pleased, Ladyleftfieldlover.
They’re one of the very few things where ‘high waisted’ really is high enough - I’m long-bodied. The long ones were perfect for me.

Not sure about "ankle grazers". I like to tuck them into my boots, or have them comfortably meet my trainers without any exposed flesh. Should I order long instead of regular?

Are these the £19.99 ones?
Thanks.

I've worn these for years. They are really comfortable
and are true to size. They wash well too.
I'm 5ft 9 " and always get the long length.
The charcoal grey are really nice as well as the navy.

IIRC they were £19.50, Kpnuts.
And not ankle grazers, in case anyone’s wondering - I’d never want those.

I can't find £19.50 high waisted jeggings that come in dark green. There is a dark green leggings at £19.50. Is the pair you have mentioned a legging or jeggings. Nit trying to be pedantic,just so confusing trying to find the item.

Cosy High Waisted Jeggings
Product code: T578887 £19.50 - definitely described as ankle grazers

I like M&S leggings a lot. But I find that the waistbands are really much too wide and dig into my tummy making me feel somewhat uncomfortable. They all seem to have been designed like this now.
I prefer a thinner waistband. I do love the leggings but can’t wear them like that.
Does anyone else have a problem with the elastic waistbands?
Or maybe I’ve just got a large tummy.

Greciangirl I know what you mean. I prefer a narrow waistband. the wide ones just fold over at the front on me.

I wear them when I am working from home and mostly sitting down, maybe that is why it happens.

And what are we wearing on the top half, going well with these?

Do they come true to size?

I find MnS jegging are pretty much to size, Luckygirl. Can't say the same for some of their other stuff, of course!

Agree about the wide waist bands on both jeggings and leggings at MnS. I prefer a narrower waistband. White Stuff come with a narrow waistband and are very nice. More expensive than MnS, of course.

Should have said White Stuff jeggings come with a narrow waistband.....

And what are we wearing on the top half, going well with these?

I have an assortment of tunic type tops. As we speak I am wearing a charcoal and pale yellow patterned White Stuff top. I have a few Kin tunics from John Lewis and some from Sea Salt.

Too short (sigh)

As are White Stuff, Joules, Fat Face. Well just about everybodies really.?
