I'm really allured to these, but showed my sister and she said they might be gorgeous and they might just be super-expensive pyjama bottoms. I was kind of picturing wearing them with sandals or converse-style pumps. Suspect I might need to order them to see. Also, I've never ordered from Sweaty Bettuy, do you know if they come up big/small/normal generally? Would welcome any opinions!

I love those and have a couple of pairs very similar that I wear to death. I don’t think they look too pyjama like on but I’m a right state at the moment so you might want to ignore me. :look:

I find SB comes up true to size and I always ask for a pair of the zero gravity bum sculpting leggings for my birthday. They are even more expensive in $$$.

Thank you for all your thoughts. They sound as mixed as mine :))

Olive, I always think of you as being very stylish, so that gives me confidence. I think they would look lovely on the right person, but I'm not certain that's me, I'll see! I'll make sure I get a code - I think there was a 15% off sign-up offer or something.

I think I'll order them and see how they look, thank you.

I just search for Sweaty Betty + my size every so often on eBay. People but it & exercise more, so then lose weight & sell their bigger gear, I’ve noticed.

That’s a good idea, Pip!

Genius! I've just gotta work out sizing now. Much obliged, Pip.

Have you tried Thought?

They sell loungewear and cuffed trousers that they call slacks, half the price of sweaty betty. I have a pair of last year's they are fantastic in hot weather.

Saying that, I have ordered myself a pair (plain black & on offer) for the garden. And I am eyeing these up.
I ordered a pair of these last year. I’d say they look a lot nicer than they are - particularly for the price even with money off. They’re mostly made of a very thin material. I was very sad about it.
I shall save my money then, the thing stopping me was the price, even with a discount it's a lot to spend.

I've got those pip, I just really fancied the blue ones :))

Actually, I wonder if M&S have anything this year as I have a voucher.

I’ll have a look at this, thanks Duo. I’ve never heard of it before but it looks good.

I really like the Thought things I have. I have a dress & jumpsuit. The bamboo cuffed joggers look really appealing.

I love Sweaty Betty but for loungewear I'd go for Boody. I live in my lounge pants from them.

If anyone is thinking of shopping at Thought they're offering 15% off until midnight 7th June. SPRINGSAVER is the code.
