Wide linen trousers in brown with elasticated waist

From the retailer

The same linen as the brown shirt dress, in trousers These trousers are cut from the linen, tencel and viscose fabric of our brown shirt dress: same dry hand, same warm brown, same lighter slubs in the yarn. The cut is that of our black wide trousers, with a fully elasticated waist and straight leg ending at the ankle, with two side-seam pockets and two patch pockets at the back. Wear them alone with a camisole or as a set with the dress worn open over the top. Wearing Experience A waist that doesn't pinch anywhere : the elastic runs all the way around, with no button or fastening: you slip them on, and the waist settles where it falls A front with no patch pocket : the two front pockets are set into the side seams, invisible from the front; the other two are patch pockets at the back A straight leg to the ankle : the width is constant from hip to hem, and the hem falls on the ankle, just above the foot Linen that stays fresh : the fabric is dry to the touch and lets air through; it creases, and that's the mark of real linen Craftsmanship & Material Composition: 50% linen, 25% tencel lyocell, 25% viscose. The linen gives freshness and texture, the tencel lyocell gives wash resistance, the viscose gives drape fluidity. It's the same label as our brown shirt dress, and the same shade: both pieces come from the same fabric. At the front, nothing is sewn on the surface: the two pockets are set into the side seams, and their opening follows the line of the leg. From the front, you don't see them, and the front stays a continuous linen surface that lets the wide leg fall straight. At the back, the two pockets are patch pockets, placed high, under the elastic, with the lower corners cut diagonally: they stay flat when sitting. Brown is one of the shades where linen's irregularity works in the fabric's favour: the fibre takes the dye unevenly, and each lighter slub adds depth where black would show a flaw. Our article on linen in summer explains what the fibre does with heat. Styling Tips Cream ribbed camisole tucked in and flat leather sandals: the simplest daytime outfit. As a set with the brown linen midi shirt dress worn open over the top, like a long jacket. White linen shirt tucked in at the front, loafers and a fine belt: the summer office version. It joins the other pieces in our wide trousers section. It's also available in black . Care for Your Piece Delicate wash at 30°C, preferably by hand, on the reverse. No bleach, no tumble dryer. Dry on a hanger in the shade, flat at the waist, smoothing the pockets by hand while damp. Press with a hot iron on the reverse side, fabric still damp: it's the only time linen lets itself be pressed without effort. Brown retains the mark of perspiration salt: rinse a fresh stain in clear water.
