31" leg jeans...

(14 Posts)

Does anyone know where I can get some decent 31" leg jeans? They're the only length that really fit me properly and hardly anyone seems to sell them.

I have one pair but they're stretch and as such cling to all those places I'd really rather they didn't (thinking mummy tummy here), would rather have old fashioned non-stretch ones that just help suck it all in a bit.

Also - need them to be reasonably high waisted - not simon cowell high, but not remotely low rise - and best if they're straight leg too (but not skinny!!). I don't even know where to start looking to get a pair that ticks all these boxes - any pointers anyone? And preferably under £50 too...

Would REALLY appreciate your help mumsnetters if someone is in the know about these things! Thanks!

H&M - I can only ever find 31/32" length jeans in there.

Thanks very much all for your replies, have looked into a few avenues and will explore the rest as soon as I have time! One thing so far - most of them seem to have elastane in them, which is the bit I don't want - DampSquib, can you tell me if the Lee ones are all cotton/denim or if they have elastane in too? (it didn't say on the link you posted). Not sure I'd get into a slim fit any more tho... sigh....Anyway, thanks again for all the replies, and will let you know if I find my perfect pair!

There's a great shop here in Northern Ireland called D2 which does lovely jeans for men and women. I've got some lovely jeans in that length.

Some of their other clothes are a bit teenage looking, but the jeans can sometimes be nice.

Not sure if you have this shop anywhere else in UK, but if there is, check it out!

Lee do 31"

I have a pair of Lee Leola - slightly over your budget, but what an investment. Mine are in their third year and still gorgeous.

Try Landsend.... not to everyones taste I know, but the trousers and jeans come in a good range of lengths and some styles can be hemmed to your exact measurements.

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
