They're a bit firm and were incredibly cheap; there's something you could uncharitably class as overspill; and they were purchased with an anticipation of the near-future stretch in the fabric, but...
They are size 12 trousers!
An interesting experiment, for they're the same label and cut (and indeed colour) as the relatively new pair I wore in, just a single size different. On me, however, that one size translates to an enormous difference in fit.
