What customers say:

Customers overwhelmingly praise these linen pants for exceptional comfort and breathability, with most highlighting the lightweight, soft fabric as ideal for warm weather. The elastic waistband and heat-wicking properties earn consistent acclaim, and many note the material becomes softer after washing. However, sizing runs inconsistent—petite customers report pants too long, while others experience bagginess or unflattering cuts. Wrinkling is widely accepted as inherent to linen, though some find it excessive. Despite these drawbacks, most customers consider them a worthwhile summer essential.

Keep the iron handy
Fit: A little large
The fit and feel are OK, but the garment comes out of the dryer in a wrinkled mess. You will need to iron.

Keep me cool.
Fit: True to size
Would like them to be a bit more versatile but the tie waist locks them into a more casual look. Have tried tucking the tie inside the waistband. Otherwise, they're comfy.

Love the color & the pants, but they run a little small if you like extra room. Size up. Linen is a little stiff as linen usually is. Vinegar to soften.

Fit: Too large
The sizing is off, used the measurements that were offered and the pants are baggy. Washed them in hot water and they shrunk a little bit.
