M&S still selling mens trousers with zip which are too short for purpose

Can't you just pull your trousers down? or does that reveal too much? your pants would still be in place to save your modesty. I don't really understand urinal etiquette.

Nooooo please noooo, I can just picture the scene ( even though I try not to) of a number of gents standing at the urinals with trouser draped around their ankles.

I think zips are the least of M&S's quality control problems.

Far more annoying is that they can't standardise their sizing, even within the same range. !

Totally agree, my OH bought some knickers last month (2 packs from the same range) got them home and had to return one pack because they were about 2 inches bigger in the waste.

Greetings!

I too got "caught" by the short zip on a pair of M&S trousers. Took 4 reviews before they would accept it - can't use various words on their review system, which in this case is necessary to explain the problem! I really can't see how any purchasers can gush over these trousers ... Oh - done it again! Review is on the M&S site now: search for:
"Flat Front Crease Resistant Trousers with Buttonsafe" - T173210M

2 inches bigger in the waste? Sure it wasn't nappies he bought?

I used to be a regular shopper with M&S until recently when I have just given up because the quality and sizing is terrible.
A couple of years ago I purchased a number of cotton sweaters and they washed very well,so I purchased the same size and model sweater to find the quality was poor,and you thought I had purchased two sizes smaller when they arrived
