The good...
I really like the concept of a drawstring elasticated waist with a pair of smart casual trousers with a proper fly and waist fastening in a 100% cotton lightweight material for summer wear.
Trousers like this from other retailers rarely seem to be available with a zip fly, let alone a waist fastening.
This concept / design is exactly what I was looking for and I could find no other trousers like this from any other retailer.
I really liked the proper zipped fly and press stud waist fastening, zipped pockets for security, sewn in leg creases, and the chive & navy colours too.
They appear to be well made.
At full price I think these trousers are rather pricey, but on offer at 50% discount they were good value.
The disappointment...
The design shape and hang was really oddball, unflattering and not at all smart.
The legs were very slim cut.
So slim at the ankles, that it was a tussle to get my feet back through to take them off,
but the top part of the trousers was rather baggy giving what I felt was a really awful fit.
In any event, even in the small size, they were far too large for my 30 inch waist, so I had to return both the small & medium sizes I had ordered.
Really very disappointing.
