Next's Barrel Leg Cargo Trousers are earning praise from shoppers for their comfortable fit and stylish design, making them a popular choice for the transition into autumn. Priced at £32, the trousers are available in five colours and sizes 6 to 24.
Shopper reviews highlight comfort and quality
One shopper wrote: "These are very comfortable. They feel soft on the skin. Considering purchasing a pair in a different colour." Another added: "Love these. Got size 12 short so they are properly cropped and short always sell out. Material is heavy and too hot for now. But think I’ll live in them in autumn winter."
Other reviews praised the fit, with one customer saying: "These trousers are very flattering and really comfortable. Really good fit. Had a few compliments when wearing them." A delighted shopper shared: "Highly recommend these trousers! They emphasise your figure beautifully while hiding any problem areas. I’m currently postpartum and only had to go up one size from my usual pre-pregnancy size."
Design and sizing options
The 100% cotton trousers feature a relaxed cargo style with a barrel-leg silhouette, designed to create a flattering fit around the legs while offering a looser cut. They include practical cargo side pockets, a mid-waist rise, and a button and zip-fly fastening. The trousers are available in short, regular, long, and XL tall lengths, with colour options including tan brown, pink, khaki camo, khaki green, and blue.
One shopper noted a potential drawback: "Really lovely pale pink, quite thick, none stretch with elasticated waist, only bad point is I felt they came up smaller." Despite this, many reviewers praised the fit, with one saying: "These are lovely trousers, good fit. I'm 5ft 1in and purchased short, the length was perfect I like the elastic at the back. Very comfy, although material is a quite thick, good for cooler days. I bought the navy, they are a nice alternative to jeans."
