Chinos

Men’s Chinos – Chinos are perhaps the most versatile trousers you can wear. Essentially, chinos are crafted from cotton twill, a fabric woven in a pattern that features visible diagonal lines. This weave lends the chinos both durability and comfort. The history of men’s chinos can be traced back to the mid-19th century, originating from the military uniforms of British officers stationed in northern Colonial India. It was here that the term 'khaki' (derived from the Hindi word for dust, referring to the uniform’s earthy colour) began to be used. The terms khakis and chinos are sometimes used interchangeably, although some argue there are subtle differences. Around 50 years later, during the Spanish-American War, American troops encountered these trousers in the Philippines, and they became known as 'chino'. The American soldiers reportedly appreciated these trousers, brought them back to the US, and their popularity soared. Whatever the occasion, you can conveniently and securely purchase your chinos online from John Henric.

The Popularity of Men’s Chinos

Over the years, the popularity of men’s chinos has grown worldwide. Following the wars, chinos became increasingly popular in the US and have since become a global phenomenon. They are a staple of preppy style at Ivy League universities, yet are also widely favoured and perhaps the most commonly worn type of trousers in various work and educational settings globally, as well as for leisure. Chinos have been donned by classic style icons from the last century such as James Dean, Steve McQueen, and John F. Kennedy, as well as more contemporary figures like Jude Law, Ronaldo, and Barack Obama.
