Slim Fit Khaki's/Chino's

[reedobandito]



RB, you ever find any wool trousers that fit you well off the rack? I tend to wear fits similar to your WAYWTs

I actually don't own any wool trousers, other than my suit trousers that I took to the tailor. Try +J, I'm looking at a pair now with a 7" hem which is perfect

Wool trousers are usually cut wider, look at W+H's wool blend or find a competent tailor...

All are very good slim (but not skinny) cut pants. I've handled Unis before (and tried it on), but wasn't insanely impressed. Maybe at 50% off. W+H are great, posted a # of fits with them, get lots of wear. No experience with Epaulet, but people seem to love them. Closer to a traditional cut than the other brands

What separated the Unis and W+H for you? They seem to be in similar price ranges, so I'm curious how construction, materials, etc. might differ. I unfortunately can't try these on in person anywhere close to where I live to see for myself.

Well the classic Gios aren't particularly slim at all, and the fabric isn't as nice as the W+H westpoints (IMO), although both appear to be hard wearing. I like the subtle sheen of W+H westpoints, and they're cut slimmer than the Gios (have no idea about the skinny Gios though)

Skinny gios arent really that skinny size 28 has a 7.2 leg opening.

I have a pair of the +J flannels and they are perfect fit wise, actually own the W+H wool blend as well

not too many other options it seems

Weird. I'd say buy a fabric and color that you like and just take it to a tailor who will actually listen to you

Want to see how they fit and how slim they are

I have 2 size 30's if you check my prof there might be some fit pics of me wearing them in my default photos. 7" hem

Think i found you with the khaki ones, thanks. Do you have the navy one by any chance ?

By the way, if I wear APC petit standard raws in size 29-30, will the W+H westpoint sz 30 be fine for me ?

I have the navy ones too, there's a pic of me wearing them with a Cabourn sweater over a BD. I wear size 30 in my PS, and the size 30 WP chinos both measure to exactly 16" across. They sit at my hips

Just saw these, Levi's MaC. Looks to be a great cut and I assume high quality, would be reasonably priced on sale. I'd try them out if I didn't already have my W+H

Seems like a lot of love for the Alphas lately. Do they have extra material in the waist to take them to a tailor? Can someone tell me the waist and leg opening on a size 30?

Also I'd like to strongly advise against Ben Sherman chinos. Own a few and I've had to resew the buttons on a million times. Not a size issue, the button on the rear pockets fell off.

 

[heidegger]

Any recommendations for a moderately dressy slim fit khaki/chino?

The Alphas are great. Of note.....I bought a couple pairs from dockers.com and they were great. I then saw them on sale from KOHLs online ( yes I know. The horror, shopping at KOHLs) for dirt cheap. I basically bought every color they had.

The ALPHA's from KOHLS are different! The material and construction seem to be the same, but the KOHLs fit is a bit more relaxed and the leg opening is larger (8 inches). I know most folks here like the slim fit.... I'm happy with both the Dockers and Kohls Alpha fits, but others may not like the Kohls-ized version. Just FYI ..... all Alphas are not the same.

Anyone know anything about either of the following pants:

Garbstore​

Civilian Service Chinos
​

J Lindeberg​

Enzo Broken Worker Chinos​

Good? Bad?

I bought a pair of each on Gilt, and I have another pair on the way also.
