I am looking for good quality, warm, comfortable lounging trousers to wear indoors. Preferably with no zips or hard seams. I bought some from M&S last winter but they were too thin and my legs were cold. Also after a couple of washes they were like bags. If anyone has suggestions I would be very happy, thanks in advance.

I think you will find that Marks and Spencer do a variety of fabric weights
in their range of pull on trousers.
I have two different weights myself.
Both, over at least two year's of washing and wearing are still in perfect condition and have kept their shape I'm pleased to say. smile

Last year I bought some Thermolactyl pyjamas from Damart. The trousers are like track suit bottoms so will do for indoor daywear. They are very warm and comfortable and wash very well.

For extra warmth I bought one of their jumbo size fleece hoodies. They are huge. I could fit three of me in there but it’s incredibly warm and meant I kept my heating bill very low.

I live in a cold house and wear leggins underneath M & S pull on stretchy trousers.

I buy jogging bottoms and wear with a sloppy old jumper or sweat shirt if just messing about indoors.

Bonmarche. And they are one of the few retailers who cater for little people like me with different leg lengths.

I have very thin but warm thermal leggings that I wear under trousers.

Bonmarche for sure

It isn't real about warmth, it's comfort. I just want some good quality pull on, comfy bottoms without zips and seams. I could put something under my cords or jeans but that's not the point. I do sit around more than I used to at 81, so just need comfort.

I wear thermal leggings under M&S pull on trousers. My friend wears thermal tights under hers.

Lands End Starfish straight leg stretch cotton jersey trousers. These are pull-on and very comfortable. In the depths of winter I add M & S thermal tights. I have them in black and navy. Being cotton they take up Dylon dye well if they start to look a bit faded.

I can't believe winter is coming...dread it. I feel like sausages in leggings with trousers on top.

I get stretchy wool mix (not scratchy) ones from Next online. Very cosy, even in Scotland!
