These Pants Are Cool With the Temperature Rising
Summer is finally here and, while I've enjoyed shedding some layers and being able to lounge in the sun again, I've been totally ill-equipped on the pants front.
The distinct lack of pants able to deal with high temperatures in my wardrobe has meant breaking out shorts earlier in the year than planned. And while there's nothing wrong with showing a bit of knee once in a while, some lightweight pants in the rotation would've been welcome.
In place of thick denim and quilted pants, we're eyeing up a welcome return to the boundless comfort of linen, nylon, and silk when the warmer weather sets in.
As such, we hit the internet to bring you a carefully considered list of lightweight pants for summer that give your legs some room to breathe. From workear staples turned summer appropriate to formal trousers crafted from lightweight fabrics, check out the selection below.
