Product Insights
This wide-leg, high-rise capri from Contemporaine offers 100% Masters of FLAX FIBRE certified European linen, stone-washed for immediate softness and long-fiber pilling resistance, at a sale price of $29.95—roughly a quarter of the typical $125+ cost for comparable certified linen pants. Its 12.5-inch rise and 23.5-inch crop create elongating proportions on petites, while the elastic waist with drawcord adjusts to fit various body shapes and maintains fit after washing as linen softens. The wide leg avoids calf cinching, and styling with skin-toned shoes, tucked tops, or monochromatic looks extends the leg line. However, washed linen reduces shrinkage but may appear semi-sheer in bright light—especially in the red colorway—due to the natural properties of linen.
Verified claims
- Price comparison
- For $29.95 CAD, buyers pay about one-quarter of a like-for-like pure-linen capri.
- Material
- 100% Masters of FLAX FIBRE certified European linen, stone-washed for immediate softness, with long-fiber pilling resistance.
- Care
- Washed linen reduces shrink but may be semi-sheer in bright light.
- Sustainability & Verification
- Rain-fed retting and annual Bureau Veritas audits verify sustainability.
- Value
- Sale price $29.95 undercuts typical certified linen pants priced at $125+.
- Inseam fit
- 23.5-inch hem lands near ankle on 5'2 and at mid-calf on 5'7 without cinching calf.
- Proportion
- 12.5-inch high rise and 23.5-inch crop create elongating proportions on petites.
- Footwear
- Pair with skin-toned shoes to extend the leg line and avoid a bottom-heavy silhouette.
- Proportions
- Tucking a top into the high-rise waist creates a 1/3-to-2/3 silhouette.
- Monochromatic
- Matching top and shoes to the pant color creates a longer, leaner silhouette.
- Wide leg silhouette
- The wide leg avoids cinching at the calf, which prevents shortening the leg.
- Patina
- Develops a consistent fine patina of micro-wrinkles over time.
- Waist adjustability
- Drawcord cinches the high-rise elastic waist to your natural waist, fitting various body shapes.
- Sheerness
- Lightweight washed linen can be semi-sheer in bright light or when stretched; the fabric is unlined, so nude or seamless undergarments help avoid visibility.
- True to size
- The elastic-waist pant runs true to size, and the drawcord adjustment allows further cinching or loosening at the high-rise waist.
- Care routine
- Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and hang dry to minimize shrinkage; avoid high heat, and iron while still damp for best results.
- Color options
- Only the color Red is currently offered.
- Fabric softness/drape
- The stone-washed finish means the pants arrive soft and drapey with no stiff break-in period, and they continue to soften with wearing and washing.
- Pilling resistance
- Long, smooth flax fibers resist the short-fiber breakage that causes pilling, so the pants soften without developing a fuzzy, worn texture.
- Linen origin
- The flax is grown exclusively in the traditional Western European flax belt — France, Belgium, and the Netherlands — where the cool maritime climate and rich soil produce long, fine fibres with strength and subtle lustre.

All-day warm-weather wear
These wide-leg, high-rise linen capris suit all-day wear in warm weather: customer reviews describe the breathable pure linen and non-restrictive elastic waist as keeping wearers cool and comfortable without digging or tightness. The relaxed cut is described as elegantly roomy by many, though reviews note it can look baggy and long on petite or narrow frames.[1]
Styling with heels or flats for a polished look
According to customer reviews, the linen's drape and wide-leg crop pair easily with heels or statement flats for chic casual outings, and the ankle crop frames your shoes — a reported favorite among sneaker and heel wearers. Reviewers also describe the look as transitioning from day to evening. Some reviewers note the refined appearance may feel too dressed up for very casual, everyday errands.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Elastic Waist Pure Linen Capri Pant Fit: Wide Leg, High Rise: Choose this if you want relaxed, breathable warm-weather pants: it is a 100% certified European (Masters of FLAX FIBRE™) linen capri with a high rise, wide cropped leg, and drawcord-adjustable elastic waist that reviewers say keeps them cool and comfortable all day with no digging or tightness. Reviewers also praise its chic, versatile look that pairs with heels or sneakers and transitions from day to evening. Note that the wide-leg cut reportedly runs large and can look baggy in the hips and seat on petite or narrow frames or if you prefer a tailored fit.[1] | Patch Pockets Pure Linen Pant Fit: Wide Leg, High Rise: Choose this if you want breathable pure linen in a high-rise, wide-leg cut that reviewers say works for office or smart-casual days and hot summer weather, with a comfortable elastic-back waistband, zip fly and button, and patch pockets at front and back. The thick washed linen weave is described as substantial and opaque rather than see-through, and it comes in Black, White, and Mossy Green across sizes 2 to 16. Note that the 30-inch inseam (in size 4) runs long—reviewers under 5 feet 7 inches report the hem dragging, so plan to hem or wear heels—and that pure linen creases quickly if you prefer a crisp, pressed look.[2] | Elastic Waist Poplin Culotte Fit: Ultra-Wide Leg, High Rise: Choose this if you want a lightweight, crisp 100% organic cotton poplin culotte with a high rise, gathered elastic waistband, and a cropped, skirt-like ultra-wide leg with slit side-seam pockets. In size small, the front rise measures 12.5 inches and the inseam 27 inches, with legs falling straight from the hip to a hem above the ankle. Note that the fabric shows subtle creasing, there are no back pockets, and the listed color is Sand in X-SMALL or LARGE.[3,4,5] |

White linen pants
They fit beautifully and are not too tight around my waist. Very comfortable
Colossal
These were beautifully made and very comfortable but very large and baggy on me all the way down. Very baggy and unflattering in the seat and hips and they're going back.
