If you’ve ever made the mistake of bogging your luggage down with heavy, bulky denim, then you know the true value of linen pants. Linen, unlike denim, is lightweight and breezy, breathable and absorbent — your favorite jeans just don’t live up. The airy material keeps you cool as a cucumber (or at least as cool as you would be in shorts) in humid climates, but still provides the coverage you want or sometimes need in conservative destinations.
The only bad thing anyone can say about linen is that it’s on the expensive side compared to cotton and synthetics. (The cost of it reflects the work that goes into harvesting flax and manufacturing it into such a quality fiber.) So, naturally, people go totally wild when they find a pair like the summery Amazon Essentials Linen Pants on sale for $9.

That’s what’s happening at Amazon right now. These 45-percent cotton, 55-percent linen pants by Amazon Essentials are originally $30, but you might be able to cop a pair for 70 percent off in select sizes and colors (white extra-large, for example, are just $9). They pull on effortlessly thanks to the relaxed fit, wide leg, and elastic waist. Reviewers are calling them A+ vacation pants: “I purchased this pair of linen slacks for a trip to Abu Dhabi,” one wrote. “There are modesty rules for certain sites that require coverage to ankles (and wrists). These linen pants felt ideal as temperatures in the region challenge Mercury and the air conditioning is Arctic.”

Another traveler who called them the “perfect travel pant” reported that they’re a “great pant to take to Europe and “doesn’t wrinkle too much. Fits beautifully… and the price was right.”
Though they apparently dry quickly, they also wrinkle, as linen usually does. Linen lacks elasticity and is a little stiffer than other fabrics by nature, which means it creases easily. A tip that works for us: splash them with water and hit them with the hotel hairdryer while using your hand to smooth out the wrinkles.

Other features reviewers love are the big pockets on the front and back, the length (hitting right at the top of the foot — approved by both short and tall people), and the inclusive sizes, ranging from XS to 6X. The pants come in 11 colors, including natural ecru, bright white, olive green, terracotta, and beachy pinstripes.
So, as you get ready for summer travels and to survive the hot temperatures at home, stock up on the Amazon Essentials Linen Pants. Take it from reviewers — “99 degrees with 93 percent humidity and ‘feels like temperatures of 113.’ Jiminy crickets,” one said. “I am not even sweating on my legs covered with these pants! What could be more perfect?” — and act now, while you can snag them for just $10 to $30. With almost 2,500 five-star ratings and 200 purchases in the past month, they’re bound to sell out fast.
