Susan, 49
"I’m a mother, I work with technology and I’m passionate about Scandinavian style and street-style photography. My day involves bending, standing, sitting and moving around and my Five Units trousers make me feel comfortable no matter what I’m doing. I love the diversity in the styles –baggy, tight and even a little sexy. It allows women to express how they feel and adjust throughout the day. It’s all about how we treat ourselves and the energy we share."

"Five Units has become a part of me. I’ve been wearing the AngelieFV trousers for 10 years, in different colours and qualities. The dark blues are my safe trousers, perfect for everything from cycling to working in social services. They balance practicality and neatness, and I love how they make me feel. The slim fit and the cutlines across the thighs highlight my legs, making me feel confident and comfortable. When I was younger, I hid myself under wide dresses, but now my trousers help me embrace who I am."

"Sometimes, when I’m preparing tomorrow’s outfit in the evening, I wake up feeling like wearing something else. But I always stick to my Five Units trousers. They’ve been with me for years and feel like the right choice, no matter what the day brings. They offer me safety, security and freedom to experiment in every way, whether physically, mentally or spiritually. These trousers reflect my inner strength and provide the comfort I need to keep moving forward."

"I have a favourite pair of trousers: ClaraFV. They fit tight without being uncomfortable and I barely notice them once I put them on. It’s a feeling of security, comfort and self-confidence that carries me through my day. I love that the style remains constant while the colours change. That’s what makes Five Units’ concept so meaningful to me. It’s more than just fashion; it’s about holding on to what works for you."

Christoffer, 39
"I used to wear baggy trousers, not just in my youth, but well into adulthood. That all changed when I tried on a pair of trousers that actually followed the silhouette of my legs. It felt incredible. ArthurPL has since become my go-to. The perfect fit, the stretch, the sophistication. When I put you on, I don’t have to worry. You give me the confidence to take on anything. You’ve become a part of me in ways I never expected."

"KarenFV is wide, long and elegant. With KarenFV, I feel like I’m not wearing anything at all. It’s liberating. They make a statement, with pleats that say ‘I’m here to make a difference.’ When I wear KarenFV, I embrace my quirky side and let it shine. The trousers don’t just fit me, they give me confidence to embrace all that I am."

"JoshPL has been with me through all kinds of moments – travel, work and personal struggles. They’re my favourite pair of trousers because they’re both presentable and comfortable. They don’t wrinkle and I can wear them day and night without worry. When my son was hospitalised, I packed two pairs of JoshPL, knowing they would be my reliable companions. They’re the trousers I trust, no matter what."
