Linen Clothing

If you are a man who is in the market for a new look, the most comfortable look to come in for a while involves the classic and deliciously relaxed linen pants! Linen pants are a great way to exactly as sharp or as laid back as you like, and though they first got their recent notice as proper attire for beach weddings, they are making a real splash in environments as various as the boardroom to the gym. Whether you are looking to make a statement or you are simply tired of stodgy cotton, take a look at what these comfortable garments have to offer.

Linen is a material that people have been wearing for thousands of years, and it is no wonder! It's natural, feels wonderful against the skin and depending on the weave can keep you warm or cool. The well-dressed ancient Egyptian man would never consider going out without a properly folded and immaculately white linen kilt, and you shouldn't call your wardrobe complete without a few pairs of linen pants, either!

Linen dress pants can be pressed to a razor sharp crease while never loosing their extremely comfortable quality and they are formal enough for the most conservative office. Look for a classic fit pair of linen pants for a more casual style, with a straight leg, and you'll be ready for anything.


This still doesn't mean that your linen pants can't be casual, slouch-around-the-house wear, either. Look for loose fit, drawstring linen pants when you just want to spend a Saturday sitting around the house, ordering pizza and watching movies. You'll find that these wide cut pants are ideal for movement and if you can find a pair that is pure linen, you'll be able to work out hard and feel the sweat just wicked away from your body. These pants are great for a light workout or a heavier one, depending on what you are doing.

When thinking about how to take care of your linen pants (you've probably heard horror stories about wrinkles that never go away) just follow the instructions on the label.
If they don't forbid it, you can even hand wash them in a pinch, which is safer than machine wash.
Use a detergent for delicate clothes and spot test to make sure that the color won't run, and avoid bleach entirely unless the pants are white to start with. Wash gently and iron will still a little damp to get the best results. Remember, the more you wash them, the softer they'll get and the less prone to wrinkles they will be.

Take some time to think about this important addition to your wardrobe and make sure that add a few pairs to your general rotation before too much longer.
