Enter the linen trouser – the ultimate summer style hero. Lighter and more breathable than cotton jeans, linen pants can touch on both tailored and casual notes with turn-ups and drawstring waistbands. They’re ideal for lounging on a beach, or taking a long lunch in the shade.
What is the most worn pants in the world?
The natural fibre has experienced a recent style resurgence, thanks to considered takes on lasting, wearable trends. Expect neutral tones – stone and khaki – alongside washed navy and denim-style indigo, with added details like classic side adjusters and polished finishing touches (like sharp pleats). And despite being a heavyweight fabric, linen has a tendency to mould to the shape of your body, giving you the appearance of a slimmer silhouette.
High-street stalwarts M&S and Uniqlo have both managed to keep costs low while maintaining linen’s quality. Expect smarter styles – like these flat front linen trousers from Billy Reid – that take you from BBQ weekends to office meetings with ease. While casual, they have a laid-back elegance that comes from their straight fit and classic neutral hues.
For a look that’s ruggedly sophisticated, pair beige linen pants men with a black shirt jacket and brown leather loafers. This outfit is the epitome of everyday cool, and it looks great topped off with a brown wool fedora.
