What footwear with wide leg cropped trousers?

This style and length does not look good on anyone with anything, it is unflattering whatever you wear with it. Gently ease it out of your wardrobe and learn from the mistake.

I was going to suggest something obvious like tights and trainers but then I came across this webpage which made me smile 😃

Cropped trousers only look good with sandals, sad fact.

Agree.

Trainers with tights or trainer socks.

This made me smile because I buy cropped trousers to wear as full length being the short arse that I am 😂😂

Trainers always

I wear loafers with wide leg trousers but don't wear cropped styles. Ballet flats or Mary Janes are other options.

I agree though about it depending on where they are cropped and biker boots might be an option.

If you are short legged I would try and get a similar colour to the trousers so it doesn't look cut off in the middle of the leg.

I’d go for loafers or ballet flats - I’ve seen a few people wearing pointy ballet flats with them, but I’m not so keen on those.

I sometimes see women wearing wide legged trousers in winter with matching opaque tights underneath for warmth, and flat pumps. It looks good. smile

Boots would be fine too, but not ankle boots ...

Depends how cropped they are on you? How about Biker style Boots or similar.
I wear wide leg jeans but I team with Trainers or loafers, however not cropped.
Check out sites like M&S and see what they match with theirs.

Instead of an ankle boot try something a bit higher but not quite to the knee, 3/4 length of a Doc style, Pavers have some great patterns and colours.

Crocs?

I have a really nice pair of wide leg cropped trousers, sort of jeans style but in a nice darkish khaki. I bought them towards the end of the summer and felt really stylish wearing them with sandals. Now it's colder weather I don't know what to wear with them - for preference I'd like to wear them with boots of some sort, but I can't decide if it looks right or not. It just looks as if my trousers aren't long enough, when I look in the mirror! When I look online people seem to wear loafers or trainers, but no socks...but I like to keep my feet warm. What do you all do?
