Cropped wide leg trousers

I feel cropped trousers are very much a summer thing.
Once it gets colder long trousers look (and feel) more sensible.
But then that is simply my opinion.

I'm not a fan of cropped trousers, they always look half-mast to me. They accentuate big feet too.

I agree with Espee. Long trousers inthe winter

Leggings, short skirt and boots for me in the Winter. Wide leg crops, nope, not for me.

I’d prefer culottes I think, with boots. I like cropped trousers in summer but not wide legged I must admit.

I think cropped wide leg trousers are the worst look. I’ve never seen anyone who wears them looking good - whatever the combo with them.

is there another way they look right
They've never looked right, and never will. Awful look.

Not for me - my legs are skinny ...

I think that cropped wide legged trousers are a no no - any time of year!

Urmstongran thanks, that makes me feel great.

Clearly I’m the worst dressed gran in the world.

Not for winter. They look awful except with bare legs. I have to confess I would only wear sandals with them too rather than anything closed up. That’s just me though people must dress as they like .

I think cropped, and long, wide leg trousers, are best left to the very tall, very slim and very young people without hips, tummies and bottoms. Just my opinion.

How strange I find it that as older people we are urged to be ourselves , wear and look how and what we like and ignore the censure of others, and now en masse, criticise someone who is doing just that.
sarahcyn just try several looks for yourself, preferably with the red and purple of the poet whose name escapes me,and good luck.

I like wide legged trousers with warm long underpants in clod weather.

My feeling about any cropped trousers is they are a warm weather mood. I suppose narrow ones could be tucked into boots but then why not wear breeches?

If the trousers are so wide legged they are divided skirts or these courgette garments I forget the proper word for them. I think long boots would be nice but not of course with the grament tucked in.

culottes

culottes

Courgettes was better.

I’m going to try them with boots.
Thanks @annsixty for your kind encouragement

I wear culottes with knee high boots in winter and white trainers in summer

My sincere apologies sarahcyn. I truly did not intend to be mean.

If trying boots, please just knee length ones! Or thick tights and slim (not clumpy) ankle boots might be a go?
Personally, cropped trousers of any description should be binned - but then I have short fat stumpy legs that would look silly with anything that wasn't at least ankle length!

Accepted @urmstongran! I was pretty taken aback by how fast my innocuous query got slapped down on several sides! I did ask for it I guess and all’s fair in love and fashion

Jaylucy I am emboldened by your advice, as I have a whole shelf of knee high boots.

I have black cropped wide trousers which I wore quite a bit last winter, with knee high black boots. I’m not tall and willowy by any means (5’7” / size 14), but they looked ok. Looked best with a shortish jacket. I could find a pic, but having seen some of the comments on here, I probably won’t

Knee high boots and opaque tights in my opinion.
