Outfit Any Occasion With Chinos

Consider chinos the best of both pant worlds. Less stiff than formal trousers but more flattering than a pair of jeans, chinos are the most versatile and comfortable pant to own. The lightweight fabric combined with a wide range of shades and styles makes them the perfect any-day, any-season staple.

Casual or formal, bright or basic, chinos are a stand-out closet staple.

For The Weekends

Chinos were originally designed for the military, which gave them their strong and rugged, yet lightweight and comfortable look. For a casual, crisp vibe, classic khaki chinos in a relaxed fit team well with a tee or denim shirt and white sneakers. These pants work just as well on weekends as jeans or shorts. Roll them at the hem to give your ankles some breathing room and go sockless to sharpen your shoes.

For The Office

When dressing up with a smart-casual combo, your chinos should fit much like your suit trousers do. Opt for rich navy or gray and pair them with tan loafers, a sleek white shirt and a blazer of a lighter hue. Mix in a pocket square or knit tie to take your office outfit from smart-casual to smart-sophisticated.

For A Pant Pop

For the well-dressed man who wants to stand out quietly, broaden your pant palette with a pop of color. Pastel shades like lavender and pistachio green are the easiest to incorporate and a bright red pair anchors most neutral separates. Slim fit styles in different shades work nicely with simple, solid-colored staples like a polo or button down.

For Darker Days

During a night out, a pair in black is the perfect comfy antidote to boring black jeans. Style your dark chinos with a black tee and leather jacket to create a sexy, sleek monochrome look. Cuff them with a black leather oxford or pair them with bold black boots.

Chinos are the easiest pants to style and lend themselves to all types of dress. For any occasion and any season, consider the chino a comfy blank slate to step up your style.
