I'm gutted these trousers have changed. They used to be such quality material and they had this cute manel like sitching across the middle of the thigh and down the front of the trouser legs so they looked cute but also kind of like worker vibes? Once worn in slightly they really went with any outfit and I even took them hiking, wore to my office, anything and everything you can thing of! But I am so so sad to report that over the years the quality of these trousers has gone way downhill. The matieral is thinner and not as heavy which was fine until the pockets started ripping within the first year or wear (mind you I have a few pairs so it wasn't due to over wearing them). The fabric between the thighs aslo wears down so quickly now and it's all just really upsetting. I finally thought I found a pair of trousers that fit right and were long-lasting, but today I have to say these feel just like the fast fashion brands. I thought Lucy and Yak was better than those brands like I said I was so happy to finally feel comfortable and confident in a pair of trousers but unfortunately that is no longer the case here. If it's about cost of making these trousers, I don't know maybe it's gone up to produce them the old way, I would 1000000% pay 60 quid or more to know there is a sturdy, somewhat heavy and strong pair of trousers coming out on the other end my money. UGhhhhh. Devastating. Please look for a shop that will stay consistent in what it is selling. I loved Lucy & Yak so this really stinks!
