Which ones are they chakaping?

The ones in the thread title and OP link.

As per my comment upthread, waist and length was fine - but the legs are a bit tight on my powerful thighs.

Think I should probably try some on @chakaping, I've got chunky thighs too 🙂. Ta

For those that have bought – how long did delivery take? Ta

Ordered at the weekend, and had an alert that they’ll be delivered this afternoon.

Just received mine, they come up small/tight
Order a size up

I'd normally wear 29/30" waist chinos / skinny jeans
32" in these

Came within a couple of days via Hermes (who seem to have improved - a lot)

I'll add to above ^ Luckily I always order multiple sizes
They really are just badly size labelled - the 32" fit as if they were 30", meaning they've not gone too baggy in other places with the size jump as you might expect

The fit is still "slim". Which I'm personally enjoying, because they are very stretchy and brushed inside

Perhaps model specific, I have some of the Fenton trousers and they're true to size

I ordered a set of the Geo II in 32L and they fit ok, quite snug across the beam and a tad baggy on the waist, as I'm normally a 30/31" waist.

Ordered late on Friday evening, delivered today.
They fit well - definitely a slim fit (I ordered 32L) and the come up a bit more like a 30 but that's fine on me. Length is great too. So far they feel nice but I've not worn them outdoors yet. Even if they fall apart in a year, it's still worth it for £23; I'd complain more if they were actually £70!

Just arrived! Oh 🙁 they are very slim fit, and is agree with the 'size up' comments. Combine with my cyclist thighs and lockdown weight gain... Not only are the 32 impossible to get over the thighs, the 33s do up but look Frankly obscene. I like them though so if I can't exchange them I'll try a larger size .... Just not sure if that's 34 or [shudders] 35!

Ordered mine Sunday evening, still nothing. I contacted them today to point out the above and ask why my order was still listed as "processing" and got an email from Hermes within half an hour saying they were expecitng my parcel from Regatta. No response from regatta themselves and order still "processing"

Hermes were almost too keen to tell me everything about the parcel.
We are expecting it
We have received it
Brenda has allocated your delivery slot
John has loaded it into the van
Kevin is driving the van today, he'll be with you between...
We're just a couple of stops away from you
[delivered on time]

Kevin safely delivered your parcel [thanks, I've got it right here, you really don't need to tell me]

Was almost expecting another email later to say that Kevin had got home safely and was now enjoying a cold beer.

If you're really lucky crazy legs, you get it all by text too!

Right, the returns system doesn't have an exchange option so I've ordered 34 this time, and after the price changes I've gone for 2 pairs of the geo 2. Hope these fit... I'll cry if I've got so fat 34 doesn't fit

was going to buy the trousers in the OP but played about the figures and realised if i spent a bit more id qualify for free delivery and £10 off if over £65, bringing the lot in at £55.

ordered the ‘Men’s Holcombe Waterproof Mid Walking Boots Bayleaf Oat’ and ‘Men’s Mountain Walking Trousers Black’.

was a little concerned after reading the 'you need to size up' comments. but, got mine this morning and theyre spot on, really pleased with the fit and quality both trousers and boots. if anything the trousers (ordered 34 as thats my usual size) are juuuust a little slack at the waist, so certainly not a slimmer fit as per the trews in the OP. Just taken the dog out in them (i was wearing them, not the dog) and they would appear to be great value for money.

thanks for the PSA.

I'm 32 when I haven't eaten too much. Thankfully the 32R I bought are great. Just right on the waist. The legs are quite a slim fit but they are pretty stretchy so not an issue. That's a good thing for cycling too, especially with the adjustable ankle strap.

Perfect for my commute and work. I've ordered another pair. Thanks OP.

They're very much on the skinny fitting side, I would avoid if you've got chunky thighs.

Anyone miss the PSA and want my 36R Questras before I return?

Any recommendations for similar trousers with a less snug fit?

Likewise, I can just about get into the 30Rs I bought (Geo ii and Fentons) but I feel ike John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever they're so tight.

The Dare2B ski trousers are a 32 waist and a much roomier fit in the leg so I'll be keeping those

What happened to Gary? He likes watching sports on TV and swimming. A cheery fella, but sometimes has issues scanning Amazon return labels.

The 34L geo ii Softshell trousers are perfect. Seem great quality and a good fit. They've replaced my regatta geo i trousers that have served me well.

I bought a few more items to get free postage and £10 off. With hindsight, I wish I had just bought the geo ii.

The zip off trousers in 33L are very tight on my legs. The joggers are a bit short.

Thanks op. Good psa.

Decathlon sell regatta online now, I use the brightest council binman orange ones, 30 quid on there, I got them on regatta site for 20 over a year ago, they're pretty good tbh.

Do they become less noisy with use? Bit rustly at the moment.

Never worn a softshell trouser before. Feel nice and warm, though.

Bought Geo and fenton. Prefer the relaxed fit of the Fenton but the Geos are nicer in appearance

Aye I bought my geo 2 at £20:95 and pair of Fentons at similar price.

Absolute steal at they prices. Still worth £48 though they are superbly well made and comfy if they fit your shape 🙂

They were worth it pure and simply cos they sold me on riding in trousers now, completely!.

I got a second pair a couple days ago for 30 quid

Re sound: I think that's the DWR/nature of the fabric. They're quite water resistant (I wouldn't say waterproof, after today....) which comes with sounds like that unfortunately!

I sized up on recommendations and now I'm wondering what you're all on about. I don't exactly have twiggy thighs myself and they're not baggy but they're not tights either. Very pleased.

Got some of them on recommendation too, sized up and they are a perfect fit everywhere bar waist which is on the loose side.

Unfortunately I only ordered that size as have an aversion to ordering too much just to send all bar one item back, seems wasteful, and now they are more than double the price.

So plan for this Christmas is to eat and drink even more until they fit, or get a belt.

Again cheers to the OP. I got three different pairs and like the look of all of them, definitely a slim fit on the legs, but I'm more than happy with them.

Anyone else think " I have just bought some Farah slacks" and i have suddenly become my dad
I find the pinch pleat around the calf annoying, as my calfs are substantially larger than ypur average farah slack wearing oap
Apart from that, warm amd comfy

Aye, mines are like that too, they're definitely made for the west of scotland 'man about town' - beer gut and no thigh muscles. 🙂

I use a belt, but would really like some nice lightweight braces, not just for biking trews but alos for hillwalking. Anyone?.
