I want something with plenty of movement, not too stiff, and very low maintenance
Also, the more lightweight and breathable, the better. I live in a city wear temperatures average between 18-35°c throughout the year, mostly 25-35°c for majority of the year
25c is well above what I would consider comfortable for orslow sateen, even the herringbone is probably too heavy.
That’s what I was wondering
i think eg has light weight cottons and linen blends that might work
stan ray too
What’s eg?
These kinda work, but idk about the texture https://www.stanray.com/products/jungle-pant-indigo-25-1

The Jungle Pant in Indigo offers a perfect blend of style, comfort, and functionality. Made from 200GSM cotton slub fabric, these pants are lightweight yet durable, making them perfect for warmer weather or layering in cooler months. The indigo colour adds a rich, versatile tone that pairs easily with both casual and o
I have a pair of these. They are fairly lightweight. I wouldn't say they are as breathable as linen, lighter weight than most chinos I've had. I'd be fine wearing them to an office job in the summer here.
Cool, have you ever posted them here?
Yeah
In Olive?
Yep
They look good
Do you need to iron them or anything?
Yeah, I think they look really cool. I've just washed cold and hung them up to dry. I might have steamed them a little once.
Hopefully less maintenance than linen blend
Oh yeah. They can get wrinkly, but not linen wrinkly.
That’s reasonable
@brandonphx how’s the movement of it? Is it stiff or stiff really comfortable?
Comfortable. They aren't stiff, but not stretchy like pants with spandex.
Of course
If anyone has suggestions for other pants that I should consider. Let me know
