Our loungewear collection is forever expanding, as we now favour comfortable leggings and joggers, over restrictive jeans or smart trousers when working from home.

While some may stay in their pyjamas during their 9 to 5, others prefer to change into something cosy, supportive and relaxing while sitting at their home office desk.

But even if you are lounging around the house on a weekend, or running errands, a comfy leisure set is a win win.

Which is why we currently have Marks and Spencer's Cosy Lounge Wide Leg Pants in our online shopping basket.

Why we rate it

M&S' Cosy Lounge Wide Leg Pant have proved to be very popular with shoppers, and it is no surprise why.

These wide leg trousers boast a regular fit, have a drawstring waist to ensure they fit the wearer comfortably, and are made from soft fabric.

The trousers can be worn as nightwear or loungewear, which is why they have got out seal of approval from those looking for chic pjs or comfy leisurewear.

Shoppers can wear these bottoms with a T-shirt or jumper, or opt for the full set with the matching top, which retails for £12.50. So it will cost £27.50 for those who want to buy the full set.

The wide leg trousers come in a navy blue marl, and are available to buy in short, regular and long lengths, all of which come in dress sizes 6 to 22, although sizes are selling out fast.

The best part is they cost just £15, which we think is an absolute steal.

What the reviews say

But don't just take our word for it, buyers have praised the loungewear bottoms too.

Here's what they have to say:

  • "I bought these and the matching V-neck top and absolutely love them. Perfect for winter lounging/pyjama crossover."

  • "Got this for my mum as a present. She loved them so much I had to get her another pair."

  • "l bought them a couple of weeks [ago], l love them very easy to wear which is a must while in lockdown. Elastic waistband, what more do you want."

  • "I bought these to wear around the house during lockdown. I don't like wearing PJs all day, and I had no reason to dress up as though I was going out. So these were the perfect in-between wear. Very comfy."

  • "I bought these to chill in during Lockdown 3.0. Warm, cosy and comfortable, with a drawstring that actually works rather than just for decoration, and - my favourite - pockets! Lovely garment."
