I've bought these to gift as part of a holiday outfit. They should be cool to wear and hopefully the recipient will like them too.

Fitting all wrong

No, I don't recommend this

They are to long between the waist band and the crutch .you have to pull them up to under your breast or if you have them on your waist the crutch hang right down . Very disappointing

Love these linen rich trousers!

Yes, I recommend this

I have 3 pairs of these trousers, black, white and navy. They're true to size around the waist and hips, but the inside leg lengths vary from well below the ankle to a little bit above it. Having said that, these trousers are comfortable to wear whether you're dressing casually or smartly. They're great for holidays abroad or summer and autumn evenings in the UK.

Lovely linen

Previously purchased in black and was very pleased with them so I bought the navy ones too for next summer. They are very comfortable and look good. The linen fabric is excellent quality, it washes and wears well.

Comfortable yet smart.

Yes, I recommend this

I bought these for a winter holiday in hot climes. They look smart/casual. Fabric is good quality and feel comfortable and cool for sightseeing. I bought the oatmeal and they are not at all see through.

Great for summer

Yes, I recommend this

I bought the beige trousers in a size down from my normal size as recommended in other reviews. I actually ordered two sizes just in case, a size down and my normal. The recommendations were correct. The size down fits perfectly and I am looking forward to wearing them on holidays and sunny days. The material is light but not see through. They are not too baggy and good value for money. An excellent buy.

Comfortable and a lovely fit

Yes, I recommend this

I bought these trousers for a holiday in India I have booked for March 2026. They are comfortable for travelling and also smart enough for wearing in the evenings for dinner with a pretty top. I like the tapered leg as it is more practical for travelling - I have a pair of M&S linen wide legs which I wore so much in the summer.

Lovely linen trousers

Yes, I recommend this

Very useful trousers for the summer. Well made but I found that the lengths can vary between pairs and I found that the sizing ran slightly large. I found my normal 12 rather baggy so went with 10 which was perfect. The first pair I bought were short and a bit long so as I was going away had to shorten. I later ordered other colours in extra short and they were just right. I am 5’ 2”.

Bought these for a late holiday. Very comfortable, good fit and don’t get bigger when you’re wearing them like certain other stores.

Smart looking trousers. Nice material and dont crease, which is a bonus. Bought for my daughter who wore them to go to a party, but could be worn casually with trainers. They fit well and are true to size.

Fab trousers...

Yes, I recommend this

Am a 12/14 and 5ft 5. Bought 12 regular and love them. Look great with trainers, sliders, pumps or a smarter shoe. I don't have skinny legs by any means, but this style is very forgiving and flattering. I bought white and fawn. Love them.
