Effortless, Elegant, and Under $100: 29 Pairs of Linen Pants Worth Adding to Your Wardrobe This Summer


Nothing says summer quite like the debut of linen in our wardrobes. The breezy fabric exudes an effortless elegance that looks just as chic on the beach as it does in the city. There's no doubt linen will truly be a summer savior on those sweltering days ahead. One of the first items on my linen wish list? Linen pants, of course. The summer staple has become a favorite among the fashion set, styled with everything from simple tank tops to matching linen tops and vests. While simple in design, linen pants effortlessly elevate any wardrobe, making you appear put-together, polished, and cool. They're just perfect for so many summer occasions.
Whether it's a casual drawstring pair or an elevated pleated silhouette, crisp white or striped print, below, I'm sharing some of my favorite linen and linen-blend pants on the market right now that will not only keep you cool on balmy days but will also have you looking altogether on-trend. The best part? You don't have to spend a fortune on linen pants this season. In fact, all my picks below come in at under $100.
Style these with a black belt and its matching suit vest for a chic city look.
I've already been wearing this cool pair on repeat.
