What Shoppers Are Saying
One buyer shared: “Pleased with these. I went for the beige stripes. Will be great for slipping on over swimsuit.”
Addy noted: “Trousers were a lovely fit, I’m 5.1 so the extra short length was perfect. I would recommend these linen trousers for spring and summer, they are so comfy. They are certainly value for money, can’t wait to wear them in the summer.”
Another customer raved: “Loved these trousers perfect for holidays lovely material and handy back and side pockets. Size wise come up large so down size when ordering I’m a 14 but a 12 was perfect also 5’ 3’’ ordered short / petit perfect for wearing with flip flops.”
A fourth shopper added: “Bought for holidays. Good quality and nice shape. Bought 2 pairs as I liked the style and fit.”
However, not all feedback was unanimous. One reviewer mentioned: “Trousers were lovely but despite buying the short length they were too long. I am 5′ 2″ and take an 8, normally size 8 short length look tailor made but not this time.”
