These are my all time favourite pants. I have 2 or 3 pairs in every colour, all the same size. For reference I am 5 ft 4", approx 120lbs and I purchased in a size XXS as I find they tend to stretch out quite a bit after wearing for a while and they do fit big overall-just not in length-see rest of r...eview. They are snug at first but they have a lot of give to them. My issue with these pants is they are all different lengths, despite the fact that I have purchased consistently in the "regular" length. The undyed colour (my fave) are sadly floodpants on me. They are far too short and look frumpy. At 5ft4" I should not have to purchase a size Tall, but if a Tall were available in this colour, I would try them! The black are by far the best length and are long and flowy, as are the pink colour. I have the blue and green colours and both of them are on the shorter side as well. The white pants are an in between length. I wash them all on cool and dry on low. I think some of the colours are petite sizing but are being sold as regular. That is the only explanation. We are talking some of these pants are 3" longer than others, despite them all being the same size. So, definitely something to keep in mind. If you are even remotely on the taller side, I would recommend ordering the Tall option. I hope Athleta continues to carry these pants and offers more colours. They are so light and comfortable. Perfect for people like me who don't feel comfortable wearing shorts but want to stay cool in the hot weather!
These pants in petite sizing have an inseam of 28 inches, which is way too long. I bought the Petite XXS RETREAT LINEN MID RISE WIDE LEG PANT in Calla Lily (white color) and I was swimming in them. I tried wearing these pants with heels but it defeats the purpose of buying relaxing linen pants in ...a petite size. I also don't like the side slits at the bottom of the leg. The pockets are too prominent looking. On the plus side, the pockets have zippers which is rare and helpful. Zippers are a great way to keep your phone safe as they are prone to slip out when sitting down. The white color are somewhat see through like other reviewers mentioned. BR is currently offering similar petite linen pants without the slit and the inseam is 25 inches which is more reasonable. Unfortunately, they aren't offering matching shirts in multiple colors like they do for the regular sizes. So I'm still on the lookout for matching linen pants and shirt.

Purchased these for some upcoming travel to Mexico and Africa. The pants feel like high quality linen. Fit true to size, very comfortable. I expect them to be great for vacation travel and warm weather.

I absolutely love these pants. I bought it in white several years ago and then bought the Undyed color (tan/beige) last summer. The linen is soft and the pants are so comfy. I'm 5'2" & 115-lbs and bought size XS (which is my typical size for pants). They fit well and the length is good for me, though they do drag the ground if I wear flats or flip flops.

I just bought my second pair of these pants and am considering buying even more colors. I have the black and white ones which are great for travel and loved wearing them on a trip to Europe last summer. They do stretch out slightly but run true to size.

I had been eyeing these for a while and my only regret is not getting 2 different colors. I am 5'4 and decided on the petite. So glad I did. They fit perfectly. I average size 4 in pants/dress ordered a small. I might have been able to get by with an x-small just as an FYI. Can't wait for spring/summer to wear these!

athleta.gapcanada.caI bought these pants 2-3 years ago, back when they were mid-rise. They are comfy, stylish, and appropriate for so many situations. I love my original (mid rise) linen pants. Fast forward a few years and I bought another pair but I took a few tries to get the sizing right. I find the current (high rise) version fits smaller than the old mid-rise. Call me vain, but no one wants to size up to get a similar fit. However, I do believe linen pants should fit loose so I sized up and got the high rise. They are a nice pant. I check back every so often for a restock on that beautiful cerulean blue colour or new colours for spring 2026. Nothing yet, but I'd love to see these pants in navy or other spring/summer colours.

Love these linen pants! I'm 5'2" 120lbs. I originally ordered a small and had to send them back for an XS. The XS was still too big so I ordered a XXS and they fit perfectly. Customer service is exceptional! One pair was delivered to the wrong house and they credited my credit card immediately. I will order from here again just because of the service!

I wanted to love, but overall too long and baggy ( I'm 5'2") and slit also a bit too much. Hubby also was not a fan. Sadly will return

I bought two pairs of these last summer and snapped up the green pair this year. The pair this year run larger. I'm exchanging for a smaller size and hope they fit because I love my other pairs. They can be dressed up or casual. All around great linen pant.
