Help! Redo my summer wardrobe before to tracksuit bottoms all summer

If you'd said a few years back that I'd want to live in tracksuit bottoms I'd have told you you were nuts..

However I have lived this winter in a smartish pair of uniqlo wide leg tracksuit bottoms. I absolutely adore them AND i like the way they look. I've had a bit of a grotty winter of injuries that are ongoing and the thought of anything tight around my back or legs is giving me hives. In short, I'm in horror at the thought of summer and having to take them off.

My work has also out of necessity changed from full time teaching to tutoring part time. My usual dresses are all either super smart or strappy. Neither of which are quite suitable. My wardrobe has to transition from smart enough to be presentable at a school or students home to comfy tramping through our local park or frankly sleeping off the pain. I'm surviving on a pair of marks checked smart trousers cross i picked up in the sale for a fiver but i hate the material. I love Uniqlos winter stock but the summer is not doing it for me at all.

Help!!

How do you feel about linen? These might suit, they come in a variety of colours BELLA straight trousers in linen blend | Lindex.

These will be my spring summer equivalent of tracksuit bottoms. Not linen so don’t crease at all. https://tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/product/tuc145504171

They look so comfy!!! I should have said though nothing denim-y allowed for work 🙄

Scratchy linen is a definite no and absolutely cannot be in any way see through. But soft linen might be the way forward
