Men's chinos – what is this beast?

Cotton trousers, called chinos, were popularized by the military. The soldiers of the US and British armies happily wore these pants, because they were much more pleasant to the touch and lighter than denim uniforms. Initially, men's chinos were made exclusively in traditional military shades (khaki or beige), and were made of Chinese fabric, to which they owe their name. As civilians woke up a keen interest in such pants, the manufacturers added more and more new colors. This is how the variety of styles and shades of cotton trousers appeared, which we can observe in stores around the world today.

It is important to consider that chinos are not at all a specific style. This is a type of pants. Cotton fabrics or textiles that combine cotton and synthetic fibers are used for their sewing. Chinos models are incredibly popular among young people as well as stylish men aged 25-30 and older. Social status is not a hindrance here. Such trousers are worn at the resort, in everyday life, at informal and even some semi-formal events. Their success with men exceeds all expectations!

How to choose and what to combine chinos with?

Everyday

Men's chinos for everyday wear are available in high-end boutiques and mass-market stores. Most often, these models have a stitching of the seams visible from the outside and from the inside, as well as a low waist. They are usually made from cheaper fabric, and therefore differ in budgetary price. But there are also exceptions.

Plain or printed trousers of traditional khaki and beige shades, as well as pastels and bright colors, look equally impressive. If your choice fell on pants with a pattern or catchy colors, then they should become the only accent in a stylish man's image. If you are confident in your unrivaled sense of style, then bright chinos can be complemented by a harmonious shirt, cardigan, belt or tie.

Casual chinos are organically combined with classic-cut shirts made of cotton, linen, flannel. However, they can be easily replaced with knitted long sleeves, T-shirts, pullovers, polos. This top blends harmoniously with a discreet design cardigan or blazer. The latter will add a bit of seriousness and emphasized elegance alongside. This will prevent the bow from being overly sloppy.

As for the belt and shoes, it is optimal to give preference to models in brown shades. The result will delight you! Because you get a spectacular, modern, but rather restrained image.

For work

Such men's chinos are made from a denser fabric that wrinkles less, retains its shape better, and therefore looks more presentable. In addition, they usually have a high waist, which visually makes a man slimmer. The priority is given to neutral and muted colors, including pastels.

Bright chinos will be perfectly complemented by a long-sleeved shirt, polo, T-shirt, long sleeve or 'Swede'. These can be plain or printed companion items. The main thing is that the color of their drawing is in harmony with the main tone of trousers or echoes the colors of the accessories present in the image (belt, socks, scarf) and shoes.

As for semi-formal events, here it is better to restrain your ardor and stay on men's chinos in classic shades – khaki or beige. These colors will give your stylish look the elegant seriousness that is a must for celebrations of this level.

In this case, the choice of secondary things (shirt, tie, belt, etc.) directly depends on several factors. These are the individual preferences of a man, as well as the reason, time and place of the event. A win-win bet will be in favor of classic shirts and shoes. Restraint is also relevant for the design of accessories used in the image. For example, a regular tie or a bow tie would work. And don't forget about the jacket – a laconic cut blazer will be the best solution. But catchy accents can be created using a spectacular print or bright colors of a pocket square, neckerchief or tie. But this is only if this is allowed by the dress code of the festive event.

Criteria for a successful chinos look

  • Be sure to try on your pants before shopping. It is necessary to choose the model that suits you best – this is the only way your appearance will be perfect.
  • It is important to note that men's chinos should not be too tight on the hips. Believe me, this will not increase your sexuality in the eyes of the fair sex! Just choose a model that fits you perfectly, naturally hugging your waist and hips.
  • Should you opt for a slim model or a version with relatively loose legs? It largely depends on where you intend to wear your new pants. It is also important that trousers do not visually add extra pounds to you, do not shorten the length of the legs and do not look baggy.
  • Chinos shouldn't be too long, but short too. You should choose the model that is optimal for your growth. Ideally, the bottom of your legs should barely touch your shoes. If you plan to wear trousers with trousers tucked in a few centimeters, then consider this when choosing a model. In any case, a man in chinos should not look ridiculous or ridiculous.

  • Should a shirt, polo, T-shirt be tucked into cotton trousers? If you are going to a semi-formal celebration, then the definite answer is 'yes'. In other cases, this is a matter of personal taste. But I still recommend taking into account the reason, time and place of the event.
  • If you have chosen chinos of light colors for wearing in the warm season, and even more so at a resort, then a belt and shoes of brown shades, as well as a color matching the tone of one of the clothes present in the image, will look most impressive and stylish in this case. Save black for semi-formal and work sets, there is a rightful place for them! Although this color, if desired, can organically fit into a casual outfit.
  • For an ensemble with the participation of chinos, the following shoes are excellent: loafers, moccasins, topsiders, oxfords, brogues, deserts. The choice of a particular model depends not only on the mood of the man or the weather conditions, but also the place where you intend to wear it. However, the harmony of the colors of the ensemble “shoes + socks + chinos” also plays an important role.
