Next shoppers have stumbled upon a comfortable spin on classic trousers, lauding their ‘very versatile’ nature for both casual and formal occasions. The Elasticated Back Wide Leg Trousers, retailing at £34, blend the elegance of tailored trousers with the comfort of an elasticated back waist, offering a softer alternative to stiff jeans.
With a trendy wide-leg design, these trousers can be paired seamlessly with various types of footwear, from trainers and heels to sandals in the warmer months. Designed with hidden side pockets and a concealed fly front, they’re easily adaptable for any occasion.
Achieve a polished office look by pairing them with knitwear or a dress shirt, a relaxed daytime outfit with a tee or vest and a short jacket, or an elegant evening ensemble by tucking in a flowy top. On Next’s website, the trousers are garnering glowing reviews, being dubbed as the ‘most comfortable yet really smart’.
Fans are particularly fond of the stretchy waistband feature, with one happy customer stating: “Comfortable and hang lovely when wearing. Waist band is stretchy and fits nicely. They are easy to wash and dry quickly so great for work.”
Another enthused: “Really smart, comfy trousers, love the elasticated waist.” A third reviewer noted: “Comfortable easy fit and perfect leg length form me”, reports Nottinghamshire Live.
Louise shared her thoughts on the comfort and utility of the trousers, remarking: “Comfortable alternative to jeans. A little long for a regular fit but this may come in useful when washed.”
Some observed the extra length in Next’s trouser range, with one purchaser saying: “Comfy, smart. Dress up or dress down, very versatile. Bit long but I’m only short.”
Another customer also expressed, “Most comfortable trousers, beautiful, but don’t know what’s happening to Next with sizing, the length of their regular trousers are far too long.”
On the flip side, Jacqui was quite pleased, noting that the length was perfect for her 5ft 5ins stature – highlighting that the trousers are available in different lengths. The Elasticated Back Wide Leg Trousers can be snagged from the Next website priced at £34.
For shoppers looking for variety, Marks and Spencer is selling Pleat Front Wide Leg Trousers for £45, which come in petite and tall, while New Look has slashed the price of their Elasticated Wide Leg Trousers to a mere £14.99 in a sale.
