I put six pairs of linen and linen blend pants to the wash and wear test. Here is what I found!

I washed the pants on cold, hung them to try for the majority of the drying time and finished drying on delicate, low heat. Every single one shrank to some degree.

The linen options wrinkled along the seams once I put them in the dryer. You’ll get the best result skipping the dryer with linen pants.

The linen blend things wrinkled the least, but shrank the most.
