Marks and Spencer's Tapered Ankle Grazer Trousers, priced at £28, have earned a 4.6 out of five rating from more than 2,000 shoppers. The trousers are available in black, raisin, camel, ivory and midnight navy, in sizes 6 to 24.
Leg lengths and styling options
The range includes leg lengths from extra-short to extra-long. The trousers feature a tailored, flattering finish with an elasticated high waist for comfort. Concealed pockets add practicality, while the ankle-grazer length is designed to show off footwear.
Shoppers can style them with a blouse and loafers for work, or with an oversized jumper and trainers for a relaxed look. Similar ankle grazer trousers are available at Roman for £26, and the Straight Leg Angela Stretch Trousers come in seven colours including brown, navy and black, with shoppers noting they 'don't need ironing'. White Stuff's Illy Crop Straight Trouser, at £65, is made from 88% cotton.
Shopper reviews
Buyer feedback has been largely positive. One shopper said: "Just what I was looking for in dressy trousers. Not too baggy and not too narrowed either. Difficult to find trousers for the more mature lady."
Another wrote: "New favourite! This is the most perfect pair of work trousers I ever bought! I’m really pleased with this product. Great quality, and I’m surprised that they fit really well."
One reviewer cautioned on sizing: "The issue I would say is, even for ankle grazers, they are a bit short." Another described them as "Absolutely amazing looking trousers very smart and flattering to wear," while a further comment praised them as "Great pair of trousers that can dressed up or down. Lovely fabric and very comfy whilst cut and fit is first class."
