Evelyn Wide Leg Jogger, Burgundy

The Evelyn Wide Leg Jogger from Betty B in Burgundy is a genuinely versatile bit of kit: a soft-stretch wide-leg jogger in a rich burgundy with a considered pink stripe down the side, moving seamlessly from the gym to a relaxed at-home evening to a considered elevated-casual daytime look.

Fabric-wise: 95% Viscose, 5% Elastane. A beautifully soft stretch viscose jersey. The viscose (a natural-derived cellulosic) does the drape and hand-feel work; the small elastane hit gives just enough movement for barre, pilates, weights, or the sofa. Reads elevated rather than sports-tech.

The design:

• Wide-leg jogger silhouette
• Nice high rise (sits neatly at the waist)
• Contrast pink stripe down the outside leg, the design detail that lifts these out of plain-jogger territory
• Elasticated waistband and ankle cuffs
• Soft-stretch construction, moves with you all day
• Rich burgundy that sits inside the warm-jewel autumn capsule

Sizing (important note):

• Available in UK 8, 10, 12, 14, 16
• The Evelyn (like most Betty B) comes up slightly generously. A 10 wears more like an 11, a 12 more like a 13. Consider sizing down if you're between sizes
• Hil takes the 10. That is telling: on anything cinched at the waist Hil would normally reach for the 12. In these she's happily in the 10, which gives you an honest read on the generous cut

Sporting mode: Hil may well be tackling a body pump class in hers, Sue may well be at reformer pilates (though she'll want to tuck the ankle cuffs into her socks to keep the leg neat, one does not want flapping legs at pilates). For the top: the Nadine Active Rebecca TriDri Organic Boxy T-Shirt in Soft Pink is the natural match, picking up the pink stripe on the Evelyn's outside leg for a considered tonal-pink activewear moment. Or the Nadine Active Cassandra TriDri Recycled Sweatshirt in Blush Pink for a warmer layer between class and coffee.

Casual mode: full Betty-B family. Layer the Betty B Sundae Coat in Wine Check over the top with the Betty B Cloud LS Tee in Burgundy underneath: a considered head-to-toe burgundy family moment, joggers under check coat, all tonal, all elevated-casual done properly. For Sue's less-tucked bohemian register: the F.Y Blair Cardigan in Burgundy thrown loose over a plain cami for a tonal burgundy-on-burgundy layered move, finished with a chunky trainer for the casual-cool touch.

Also plays with the whole warm-jewel autumn capsule on site: Roll-Neck Asymmetric Knits in Burgundy and Claret, Perfect Tank in Burgundy, Barbara Blouse in Fig, and every warm neutral (chocolate, camel, cream, olive).
