Looks more expensive that they are but beware of the static

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 September 2019

You could be forgiven for thinking that these trousers are one half of a mid range two piece suit (or one third of a three piece suit, not that any normal people other than waiters and snooker players wear waistcoats). They look smart and hang nicely with a distinctive pleat that makes them looked sharp. You can wash them in the washing machine and put them in your Corby Trouser Press and they look as good as new each time. I am sure you can iron them too but a Corby is my press of choice having one already in situ when I purchased my semi detached dwelling from an elderly gentleman who left it behind.
And at this price, quite frankly it doesn't matter if they wear though quickly. I do not imagine they will as they are made of polyester. You just need to be careful of latent static electricity as you can get a spark when you touch something like a lift button or a metallic door handle.

Trouser length is always at maximum length so you have to adjust yourself.

Second Review
Having washed, adjusted and used these trousers for a few weeks now, I believe I can now give a more useful review of these trousers to someone looking to purchase them.

GOOD POINTS
The cut is generous, providing room for flex.
Tasks involving prolonged stretching and bending are fine, material keeps its shape well.
The sides and back pocket are deep and spacious enough to hold items and hand.
The trousers give a professional look with workware durability.
The shoe style cut finish is a good size to drop over shoes, boots or trainers.
I find the good points and the cost of these trousers make them VFM.

BAD POINTS
The size I ordered was a 40W x 33L. The size that came measured 42W x 36L
After reading other reviews, this seems to be commonplace.
To keep the overall cost of the trouser as low as possible, I decided to make the alterations myself.
I measured and cut 2" off each leg then used iron-on adhesive double-sided fabric tape to create a 1" seam for both legs.
The results were positive.
I was unable to do anything about the waist other than create an extra hole in my belt.
The result being the trouser having loose material around the front and back sometimes creating folds.

RECOMMEND
Purchase a size smaller than what you require.
Be prepared to have the legs taken up.

Part of a modernisation package for a delighted octogenarian on yet another birthday. Much better than the old fashioned kit he normally wears 'for best' and perfect in warm weather or environments. As the chap's not a fashionista, he surprised us all for actually putting these on after opening his present and wearing all day, he was so pleased (he normally treats b'days like just another day, so we were surprised to put it mildly). Good fit, great style that took years off him, nice material for such a good price and worth the upswing in mood for such an extended period!

who I have dealt with for years were better than I expected

These trousers from Chum's, who I have dealt with for years were better than I expected. I wanted a 32" leg but curiously, no where in the whole world can one get a 32" inside leg!! However, I got the 31" leg and was very pleased to find that it fitted perfectly. Maybe I have shrunk over the years? I hate trousers which are trailing on the ground or swinging around my ankles. The material of these trousers seems quite strong and soft and having washed them twice, there is no problem with shrinkage or any other material deformation. Very good value for money.

Good fit, decent value everyday wear trousers

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 December 2018

Size: 32W / 31LColour: BlackVerified Purchase

These trousers fit as they should and are decent value for everyday smart/smart casual wear. They go well with a polo or button-down shirt, can even smarten them up with a blazer and tie if needed but the quality will not be up to the standard required for a "suit and tie" event.

The only thing I'm disappointed with is the single hook-and-eye faster at the waist. A double fastening with a button as well would be much better (as is the case on other trousers in the same brand) or even a single button. The hook and eye fastening allows the end of the waistband to 'sit up' so it's unsightly if you don't cover it with a belt.

Overall, good value for the money.

I was panicking a little as I had no formal trousers to attend a function. Due to the pandemic, I had to order these and I'm always a little wary as not all sizes seem mean the same to every manufacturer. I needn't have worried as they fitted perfectly, being nice and light, good pockets and with a saggy bottom which helps me!!! Arrived in time for they were needed. Really pleased.

Decent Trousers

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 March 2021

Verified Purchase

The trousers are a good fit and feel good but very light weight so if it is cold you will need to wear long John's. The trousers pocket design is deep which is good as items do not fall out easily. I do not recommend you tumble dry these trousers as they start to fall apart slowly a couple of drys. I have verified this as I have a couple of these trousers. And they all suffered the same fate except for the one I haven't tumble dried.

I've had better

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 June 2019

Verified Purchase

The first set of trousers I received, although ordered to my measured waist size, were too big and were returned for TWO sizes down. All in all the quality of the trousers are good although I find them to be a lot "thinner" than I expected. In addition, as they are 100% polyester, they can get "clingy" due to static, especially if you have hairy legs. Although I wouldn't recommend these trousers (find a 50/50 or even 75/25 cotton/polyester blend) the seller are OK and my return / exchange was handled without any fuss.

Good work trousers

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 September 2020

Size: 36W / 33LColour: BlackVerified Purchase

These are a good work trouser and the fit is good , I had to return the first pair ordered as they where too small but , I think it was more of thinking I was 10 years younger to be honest, I know a lot of people say they come up small but now I know what size to order would recommend.

Fantastic fit!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 August 2021

Size: 38W / 31LColour: BlackVerified Purchase

Took a chance on these and was surprised at how well these fit. I like my trousers baggier than usual so I love that these aren't so tight around the leg which is what I usually find with formal trousers with a similar waist size. The only negative point on these is the lack of a second rear pocket. No big deal. Will be going to these guys for my office wear in future.
