Next's ‘lightweight' tailored linen trousers are ‘smart, chic and cool to wear'
Linen trousers are a summer essential, in our opinion. Thanks to their versatility, they can be worn for so many different occasions, from beach trips to office days and alfresco dinners.
In addition, linen's natural breathability and moisture-wicking properties make it ideal for wearing in hot weather, keeping you cool and dry all day long.
After some scrolling, we spotted Next's Stay Smart Wide Leg Linen Rich Trousers, priced at £38, and think they are the ultimate summer trousers.
These trousers are smart enough for work or dressed-up plans, but comfy enough for everyday wear, making them a wardrobe hero you'll want to reach for again and again. Made from a breathable linen-rich blend, they keep you cool on warm days while the wide-leg cut gives a flattering, floaty fit that elongates the legs.
Pair them with a crisp white shirt for office days or a simple tee and sandals for a casual everyday look.
With over 100 reviews, shoppers have been praising these linen trousers for their quality, fit and chic look. One shopper wrote: "Feel so comfortable, can smarten them up or make them look casual, nice quality, and they do wash well. Will be ordering some other colours"
A second added: "Beautiful trousers that are smart, chic and cool to wear. So impressed that I also bought a pair in navy"
While a third reviewer wrote: "Smart navy trousers good for summer. Very comfortable and just the right length for me. I find it difficult to get trousers to fit comfortably and these are just right. Easy to dress up or down for a more casual look. Have washed well too."
If you're after other styles, we're big fans of Topshop's linen balloon trouser in stone, currently available for £34, thanks to their breezy, balloon-style fit. Additionally, the barrel leg silhouette is the trendiest trouser shape of the season this ASOS pair feature a stylish buttermilk yellow striped pattern that's right on trend for the season.

Missed out on Adidas's cow print sambas? This is when they'll be back in stock
From cowboy boots and fringing to bootleg jeans and suede, the fashion world is going wild for Western-inspired style right now. But Adidas took things one step further earlier this year when it dropped a new style of trainer featuring an all-over cow print. Putting a fresh spin on the ubiquitous samba and the sleek SL72 style, the bold print was an exclusive for Asos and sold out in all sizes within a day. So, has cow print officially stolen leopard print's crown? Rearing its head at Copenhagen Fashion Week in January, it went on to dominate street style looks in New York, coating everything from handbags to heels. A playful take on the Western aesthetic, cowboy print rose to prominence in the Sixties among bohemian dressers before having a comeback in the Nineties thanks to the decade's maximalism. Now, it's returned again as a direct challenge to the clean girl and quiet luxury trends. There are plenty of ways to wear it, from mini skirts and ballet flats to trousers. But if you prefer a more understated pop of cow print, trainers are the way to go. The good news is that the Adidas x Asos range is being restocked imminently. Here's everything you need to know. Adidas Originals samba trainers in cow print: £90, (Adidas) A fashionable spin on the hugely popular trainers, these Adidas sambas are designed to be a style statement in their own right. Characterised by an all-over cow print, the trainer features the signature white three stripe detailing, tongue and heel, while chocolate brown laces and a pink leather lining add a playful touch. The trainers sold out within a day before, but will be back in stock on 1 August 2025 – so, mark the date in your calendar. Adidas Originals SL 72 OG trainers in cow print: £90, (Asos) A fresh alternative to the prevalent Adidas samba, the SL72 trainers boast a more streamlined silhouette. Reminiscent of trainers from Adidas's archive in 1972, the design of this style is low profile and slick with a playful cow print finish, pink pops on the sole and black laces. Featuring the brand's instantly recognisable three stripes and trefoil logo, the trainers marry comfort and style. Trust us, the print is more wearable than you might think. Whether you play it safe with an all-denim look (lean into the Western feel) or experiment with colour by pairing them with red, blue or butter-yellow pieces, the monochrome print is sure to add intrigue to your look. The trainers are back in stock on 1 August 2025. These leopard print Adidas samba trainers are selling out fast – here's where to shop
