Shop men's chinos for a cleaner alternative to jeans and a more relaxed alternative to tailored trousers. WARDLEY chinos are built around versatile slim and tapered shapes that work for the office, dinner, travel and everyday smart-casual outfits.
Men's slim and tapered chinos
A tapered chino gives a neat line through the leg without feeling restrictive. The waistband should sit securely, the thigh should have enough room to move and the hem should finish cleanly over trainers, loafers or Chelsea boots.
How to wear chinos for smart casual
For work, pair chinos with an Oxford shirt or a quarter zip jumper. At weekends, wear them with a heavyweight T-shirt, knitted polo or lightweight jacket. Neutral colours such as stone, navy, charcoal and black are the easiest to repeat across a smaller wardrobe.
Chinos vs trousers
Chinos sit between jeans and tailored trousers. They are less formal than pleated trousers but sharper than joggers or cargos, which makes them useful when the dress code is unclear. Compare them with men's pleated trousers, cargo trousers and the full men's trousers range.
What shoes work with chinos?
Minimal trainers keep chinos relaxed. Penny loafers or Chelsea boots sharpen the same outfit. Browse men's loafers and men's footwear to finish the look.
