6 Linen Trouser And Sandal Pairings To See You Through The Next Heatwave
Cargos, capris and jeans, all in breezy linen – plus the summer sandals to wear them with.
There are a few staple garments without which our summer wardrobes would be a very confusing place. These include a crisp white tank (or three), a Jane Birkin-inspired basket bag, and the perfect linen trousers.
If you don’t own a pair, there’s never been a better time to rectify that. The Spring/Summer ‘25 collections offered up an abundance of linen-trouser inspiration, from low-slung, tailored versions at Victoria Beckham and Tommy Hilfiger, to Gabriela Hearst’s lightweight, linen-denim jeans. If you’re partial to the cargo-pant trend, may we suggest a pair in linen – see the cuffed, sun-bleached styles at Elie Saab and Acne Studios, or the sleek, white wide-legs at Ralph Lauren – because nothing says heatwave-chic quite like white linen.
To help you decide, we’ve not only shortlisted our six favourite linen trousers to buy now – including capri and cargo pants, tailored trousers, and pastel wide-legs – we’ve gone one step further, and matched each of them with a pair of summer sandals. Red flip flops, braided slides, minimal thongs and Y2K-inspired kitten heels – the gang’s all here, and ready to ensure you look impossibly stylish even in the sweatiest of summer weather.
A tailored trouser calls for an equally refined sandal and these braided slides from Toteme more than fill the bill. On top, continue the minimal styling with a simple black tank and oversized white shirt.
We love the sugary shade of these wide-leg trousers by Cos, to which a pair of this season’s jelly flip flops seem the appropriate partner – especially when they’re in a poppy hue.
You don’t have to part with your beloved jeans this summer; simply swap them out for a pair that has a generous measure of linen. They’re the perfect match for the season’s must-have clogs from Miu Miu.
Arguably the most essential of them all, a great pair of white linen trousers can be dressed up and down. For daytime errands, keep things simple and opt for minimal, barely-there sandals in classic brown or black.
Y2K’s favourite capri pants are back – and so too are their kitten-heel accompaniments. Faithfull’s linen pair comes in black and white, and either teams beautifully with heeled flip flops.
This season’s heavily-embellished sandals counteract the utilitarian feel of cargo pants in the most pleasing way. Acne Studio’s lightweight cargos hit all the right notes.
