FAQs
Are these trousers true to size?
Yes, they follow standard UK sizing, and the drawstring waist allows for slight adjustments for a more precise fit.
Can I tumble dry these trousers?
It is not recommended. High heat can damage the elastic waistband and potentially shrink the polyester fabric.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
The side pockets are designed for convenience and can hold smaller items, though larger smartphones may feel heavy in the relaxed fabric.
Is the material breathable?
Being made of polyester, these trousers are durable and hold their shape well, but they offer less airflow compared to cotton or linen blends.
How should I style these for a night out?
Try pairing them with a sleek, tight-fitting bodysuit and platform heels to contrast the wide-leg silhouette with a streamlined top.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring becoming loose throughout the day
Tie a double knot or ensure the cord lock (if present) is tightened securely before movement.
Fabric appearing static-prone
Use a light anti-static spray or a fabric softener during the rinse cycle when washing.
Wrinkles appearing after sitting
Hang the trousers in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes to allow the polyester fibers to relax and release minor creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure these trousers maintain their shape and comfort, always follow the garment care label. Because they are constructed from polyester, they are generally machine washable; however, it is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with like colors. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can degrade the elastic in the waistband. Hang drying is the best method to preserve the fabric's integrity. Ensure you verify your specific size based on the UK sizing scale to ensure the best fit for the drawstring waist.
