FWIW (I'm sure you know, but just in case) Uniqlo has just released the same pants but with belt loops, and slightly more linen (giving it a crisper feel).
Any idea how tapered they are? Their website says they’re quite tapered but the pictures doesn’t show it.

Very, as with most Uniqlo things. A little too much for me, but $50 for linen pants including alterations is hard to say no to, so I picked up two pairs anyway. Once ironed they looked rather neat. I walked around in the heat and they seemed better at not retaining humidity than the previous drawstring version was.

What I really liked was the new "French linen" shirts. Nothing like the cotton-linen mix, quite a bit cooler, although I sat under the A/C at the restaurant and froze as a result...
