Tried on linen pants at Gap, Old Navy, and Banana Republic. There was only one pair I wouldn't consider buying.
A consumer compared linen pants across Gap, Old Navy, and Banana Republic, all brands owned by Gap Inc., focusing on fit, comfort, fabric quality, and price. In Gap, the shopper selected a linen-blend easy wide-leg pant in brown gingham, noting the fabric’s thin feel and that it is made from 55% linen and 45% rayon. Despite being long for the shopper and lacking a lining, the patterned design helped reduce sheerness, and the pants offered an adjustable drawstring and a relaxed wide-leg silhouette. However, at $80, they were not viewed as sufficiently justified for the price, so the search continued. At Banana Republic, the linen wide-leg drawstring option delivered a stronger impression, with better perceived construction and a lining to address transparency concerns. The shopper praised details such as a button and more visible pockets, though the fit was again long. The $130 Banana Republic pair was highlighted as favored on overall style and construction.
