M&S’ £45 linen trousers that look like jeans – PERFECT for Summer 2025

They are THE summer wardrobe must-haves this year.

It’s safe to say that no summer wardrobe is complete without a pair of linen trousers. In fact, we are draped in linen from head to toe when the warm weather hits. Searches for ‘Ladies linen trousers’ have skyrocketed by up to 53% in the last week alone.

Linen trousers come in various shapes and sizes, though the most popular are the wide leg trousers with an elasticated drawstring waist, which offer a relaxed fit that are comfortable and versatile to wear in a heatwave.  However, you can also shop tailored linen trousers, tapered designs, a structured palazzo creation, or cropped linen trousers.

What makes linen trousers so popular, particularly in summer, is how lightweight and breathable they are.

How about a comfy pair of wide-leg jean-style linens that are flattering, stylish and perfect for warmer weather? Yep, M&S have delivered again.

If you’re after jeans that don’t feel like jeans, this linen-blend pair from M&S might just be your summer wardrobe’s new best friend. The wide-leg shape gives them a relaxed yet structured feel, and the breathable fabric makes them ideal for warmer days.

Available in sizes 6 to 24 and three lengths, they’re already racking up rave reviews. 

The fabric is a soft linen blend, which means you get the relaxed look of denim but the comfort of something much breezier. 

They’re also a great option for travel, especially if you want something breathable for long train rides or flights that won’t leave you wrinkled and restricted. The fabric has just enough structure to avoid that ‘crumpled linen’ look while staying soft and airy.

The cut is modern and easy to wear: a fitted waist that flatters your midsection, flowing into a wide-leg shape that gives just the right amount of drama. Ideal if you’re hopping from errands to brunch – or simply lounging in the garden with a good book.

M&S offers this style in Short/Petite, Regular, and Long, so whatever your height, you’re covered. Waist sizes range from 6 to 24, though some popular sizes like 24 have already sold out.
