Sainsbury's do very comfy jeans that are flattering too - could have a look in there if all else fails!

I have discovered some great jeggings in Next. Around £20/22 a pair. They are pull on with an elastic waist,come in various colours and denim. They are the most comfortable jeans I have ever worn. I have them in every colour and wear every day. Really recommend.

Yes, another that suggests you try Maine at Debenhams and while you’re in there also check out Mantaray.

I find M and S jeggings with elasticated waist are very comfy

Brilliant - those replies give me some places to try.

I'll let you know how I get on.

Thank you all.

Try Maine in Debenhams.

Do you think they have stopped doing them and someone bought up the remainder in a job lot MissA?

Jalima1108 Wed 13-Dec-17 17:38:45

No, they don't need taking in that much (my waist is not that small Kittylester grin), but just enough so they feel more secure

I have abandoned the Bonmarche ones except for gardening as they do tend to start working their way down!

Don't you get bunching, jalima? And they don't have enough belt loops either!

I just checked eBay, and there are 350 new pairs of M & S classic jeans listed.

Jalima1108 Wed 13-Dec-17 12:34:10

I did buy a pair from Bonmarche but they are huge in the waist too and seem to work their way down.
So I have to use the belt with them too.

I have resorted to wearing a leather belt (M&S) to go round the waists of M&S jeans

Landsend's sizings are all over the place. I bought a lovely pair of jeans which fitted perfectly and that I have worn a few times so decided to buy another pair. They were ridiculously enormous round the waist and, when I wrote to Landsend to complain, I received no reply.

Cotton Traders are really good and Bonmarche have a reasonable selection.

Also, jeggings can be good - the wide leg ones look more like jeans and the waists are so comfy.

Try Landsend.co.uk

Cotton Traders.

Or get maternity jeans - I do!

I desperately need new jeans. I have always bought M&S Classic jeans which have an elasticated back waistband, or sometimes the elastic was at the sides.

But it seems they're not available any more.

I'm a funny shape so these were the only ones that fitted me perfectly - so now I'm stranded - jeanless!

Has anybody seen this type of jeans anywhere please?
