High waist trousers in washed and brushed dark mint linen. Cool but sturdy fabric. Ramie is a fabric very similar to linen, but because it needs less water to grow it is a more sustainable choice. It has the feel and look of a medium weight linen. The 1920s inspired trousers can be worn with braces (suspenders) They have buttons sewn on the inside of the waistband. They also feature two side adjusters with buckles. They have generous pockets made of 100% cotton, and back pockets with flaps and button. The closure is an extra long zipper and a button.

SIZING INFO:
Sizes are waist measurements in inches. Measure to be sure, jeans sizes or chinos often have a different size, you should take 1 or 2 sizes larger. When measuring the waist, make sure you measure high enough, just below the ribs is the right place. Take a measuring tape or cord and pull it tight enough to be comfortable. Or use a belt that you fasten and measure it to find the right size.
LENGTH:
The inside leg length of the trousers is 33 inches, which may seem short, but is equivalent to 36-inch jeans. There is also plenty of fabric in the cuff. To lengthen or shorten, consult my blog for DIY or find a tailor near you who can help. They usually charge around €15 to €20 for it. Before shortening them, I recommend washing them first. Although I test my fabrics for shrinkage, this may be different in a different machine, hardness of water, different detergent, etc. Always leave enough fabric to lengthen them if needed.
CARE AND MATERIAL:
Main fabric 100% linen, pockets 100% cotton. Machine wash cold with mild detergent with similar colours, let dry, do not bleach, iron on medium-high heat. More info about Ramie on the bottom of this page
