Do you wear linen trousers in the summer in the UK?

[WifeofBathtime]

I used to then gave up as they look like a rag after 5 minutes.,
I KNOW that's 'the look' and it's fine overseas when it's hot but not too sure about City wear in UK (not in an office.)

I think you have to accept and embrace the creases.

Yes. I am in London where it gets very hot.

I can’t bare the creases!

You need ironing!

Yes but you have to not mind the creases.

Yes. I don't find they get especially creased. I work in a school so they are all I can bare when it's 30deg in my office. I wear cropped though.

Yes but only black ones. Can't bear light coloured trousers.

I love linen trousers, as long as I don't have to sit down. I only wear black in the UK, I like white when I am abroad

I do - navy blue and cropped ones.

My trusty cropped, wide leg stone ones gave up last year, they were ancient. I can’t see any I like online though they are all elastic waists.

Uniqlo have lots that are nicer shapes than the traditional wide leg - eg they have some cropped barrel legged ones that look smart and don't crease

Yes,navy or black cropped ones.

Yes, cord in the winter and linen in the summer. Love linen time.

I think it’s worth paying a bit more for linen. I have some very old (15+ year old boden) linen trousers that still look great. A pair of supermarket ones I purchased last year went into a charity bag, as they looked like rags after a couple of washes. Saying that, Boden quality has dropped off in recent years, so I don’t know what they are like anymore.

Yes. Agree with pp's on quality, heavy linen in dark-ish colours. Slouchy styles, elasticated or half elasticated waist preferred. The sort of thing Oska or Beyond Nine do. No white spit-peas-through fabric, or anything that's trying to be smart or tailored.

Yes, I have a selection from m and s but I've lost a lorra lorra weight since last Summer so I guess they will be going to VINTED along with all my summer dresses which were new last year too. Wah

I stopped wearing them last year because they looked so shabby once I’d done my train journey to work. I love them though

I know I'm being unreasonable but all I think off with linen trousers is 'I can see your pants'.

Sorry, but anything barrel-leg can absolutely never look smart!

I used to wear some i got from Primark all the time about 15 years ago. Bought a pair last year and actually really like them. I don't bother ironing them.

I only ever wear white ones. I find other colours make me feel old and drab.

Yes, and I love them. They do need ironing though to prevent them looking like rags.

For looking urban I prefer a linen blend. The look of linen but less creasing. On holiday I’m in 100% quality linen and the creasing looks fine in context

I have a pair from viyella still in great condition around ten years old and they are half lined. I brought a second pair from m& s they lasted one year

I wear linen trousers a lot and you cannot see my pants at all. I really can't envisage what you are meaning.
