    No length size mentioned though??

    All the trousers I've bought already are available in a range of inner leg sizes.

    Karrimor are owned by Sports Direct, take the RRP with a big pinch of salt.

    Even so, cheapest lined trousers I've seen. Plenty of pockets, zipped pocket, better than the craghopper ones on the same rack.

    But if I buy them, will I be falling over a lot with my Welsh 29 and half inch inside leg?

    ha ha, I need 36" inside leg and whilst you can turn up trousers you can't make em longer! Loving the 5.11 range for their sizes.

    Right, be warned, "large" is a small 36" waist, more like a 35. Legs are generous, I'd say 33".

    Amazon states on that page that they are sold and dispatched by sports direct, so just another online facet for them.

    I went into Brighton and tried on a large.
    They were a bit on the short side, I left them in the shop as the quality of build was not to my liking.

    Odd, I like a long leg and mine are perfect - perhaps there's a reason they're cheap, inconsistent sizing.
