It’s not often I rave about anything from M&S, but I bought some of these recently and am wearing them for the first time today. Properly high-waisted, and with a slightly fleecy lining, so warmer than average, and exceedingly comfortable! These are dark green and look v nice, but I shall be treating myself to another pair in a different colour very soon.

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.

Mine are dark green, jeggings, but not ankle-grazers.
But as per my pp, sadly out of stock now.
My local M&S had a stack of all sorts of jeggings when I went in the other day, but as so often, not the item I wanted.

I suppose I should be grateful, though, that they had the right size and colour of cashmere jumper I wanted for dh’s recent birthday. The wretched little bastard moths had got into his old one.

I love the navy denim jean jeggings from George Asda , they are also high waisted and are so very comfortable to wear , with back pockets , for £8 you just can’t go wrong . They also come in larger sizes and fit so well .

Do jeggings have pockets?

These have pockets:

I had a look at these but they contain too much synthetic fibre so not for me.

Not in my experience.

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.

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

NotTooOld Fri 15-Oct-21 17:52:24

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.

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!

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.

Greciangirl Fri 15-Oct-21 15:06:15

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.

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

Maya1 Fri 15-Oct-21 11:52:30

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.

Kpnuts Fri 15-Oct-21 11:47:47

Are these the £19.99 ones?
Thanks.

Nanachoochoo Fri 15-Oct-21 11:43:13

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?

Witzend Fri 15-Oct-21 09:40:53

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.

Patsy70 Fri 15-Oct-21 09:40:14

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. ?

Ladyleftfieldlover Fri 15-Oct-21 09:34:04

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

Witzend Fri 15-Oct-21 09:31:39

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.
