Marks and Spencer's Pleated Wide Leg Trousers, priced at just £20, have become a hit with shoppers who praise their fit, material, and pockets, with many requesting additional colour options.
Shoppers Praise the £20 Trousers
The Pleated Wide Leg Trousers, described as 'looking expensive', are available in black or dark green, in sizes six to 24, and in short/petite, regular, and long lengths. They feature a secure hook bar and zip fastening, designed for comfort even after a long day at the office.
The trousers have earned an overall star-rating of 4.4 out of five based on more than 40 reviews. One satisfied shopper said: "£20 for these trousers, absolute bargain. The material feels and looks amazing."
Fit and Quality Reviews
A second reviewer noted: "I was looking for new wide leg trousers for work and found these initially in the website. I had to get assistance in store to locate them and tried on a pair. Great fit and short length which I always struggle with. These don’t need any alterations and combined with a great price, these were a fabulous addition to my working wardrobe. Wash well and need very little ironing."
Another shopper added: "I tried these trousers on in-store. I always like to go up a size with this sort of style. I am a petite 5ft 2ins with a regular leg length. They only had petite length in my size so had to order with click and collect. The trousers look much more expensive than the price."
Mixed Feedback and Alternatives
However, not all reviews were glowing. One shopper gave a three-star review, writing: "Love the style and colour but I've marked down as I'm not that keen on the fabric. Why does 'lightweight' these days seem to equate with feeling cheap? However, with the low price I should have expected nothing else."
A four-star review mentioned: "Lovely trousers. The material and colour are great. I firstly ordered size 14 (my usual size). Very big. I ordered a size 12 and they fit beautifully except the waistband was a little snug."
Despite mixed feedback, many shoppers are enthusiastic. One five-star review reads: "These are great trousers, they look expensive and hang beautifully. They don’t crease." Another added: "Great trousers they're a perfect fit. Lovely material and they have pockets. Brilliant. More colours please."
