Great for everyday wear, they can be teamed with pretty much everything in your wardrobe, from jumpers, to blouses and jackets. Plus, they also come in wide-leg version if you prefer something a little looser.

Here's why these easy-to-wear jersey trousers should be on your radar this winter...

Why we rate them

Made from a super soft jersey fabric with an elasticated waist, they offer the perfect amount of stretch for all day comfort.

While they may of been made with practicality in mind (including a easy pull-on design), the overall high-waisted silhouette remains flattering, tailored and smart.

One shopper even said "So comfy! I love these, it’s like wearing PJs but also smart enough for work."

In terms of care, the stretch trousers are machine washable at 40C (delicate setting) and come in sizes 6-24 in extra short, petite and regular, 6-22 in long and 8-20 in extra long.

The one issue? Getting your hands on the coveted staple. The trousers keep selling out at M&S, one shopper who pounced on them when they came back in stock said: "I bought 3 pairs and I’m really pleased that I did".

So you may want to nab a pair (or two) while they're still in stock, as they're already selling out fast in a couple of the colours.
