Product Insights
The Utility Cargo Bermudas Inseam: 10" (26 Cm) by Le 31 combines a 55% TENCEL, 23% linen, and 22% polyester blend for silky softness and breathability, with TENCEL minimizing wrinkles and polyester limiting shrinkage. However, the fabric’s wet weakness demands gentle washing and air-drying flat, and ironing requires inside-out medium-low heat with a damp cloth, adding maintenance effort. At a sale price of $49.95 CAD, it undercuts American Eagle and L.L.Bean, offering competitive value despite the necessary care precautions.
