British Army 12 oz Wide Leg Fit Chino Trousers

Inspired by early 20th-century Chino Pants, this design combines classic style with modern details. These pants have a loose fit, a traditional button front pocket for easy access, and a Paris buckle at the back for waist adjustment. A special washing process gives them a vintage look.

Chinos have a rich history. They originated in 1848 when Sir Harry Lumsden created them in India to camouflage his uniform. He used a unique dye made from coffee, curry, and mulberries, creating the color known as khaki.

The term "chino" came about in 1898 when American troops wore Chinese twill cotton uniforms in the Philippines. After WWII, GIs popularized chinos in the U.S., making them a college campus staple and defining the East Coast Ivy League look. Hollywood later embraced them, solidifying chinos as a symbol of cool, effortless style.
