How Chinos SHOULD Properly Fit! | A SIMPLE GUIDE FOR THE MODERN FIT

[@prashil3k594]

This channel feels like a discovery! My work from home just ended and I have forgotten how humans dress. This video is my one step closer to civilisation. Thanks a bunch for the advice.

Hi bro! Just want you to know that your videos are really helpful for me! Living in Southeast Asia, your videos are spot-on for a guy like me. Keep it up!

[@theDapperVault]

Thanks my dude. Comments like this are the reason why I'm still making vids.

[@TeslaRules1856]

With some body types, high rise (sit at or near bellybutton) can be a better look. Very few places carry high rise chinos. Also if you lift weights - you may want to avoid too much tapper at the calves. Lastly I find the comparison to "Khakis" which in American terms are cotton twill pants are worth considering as an alternative.

[@theDapperVault]

On point with that comment. End of the day, it's about the overall proportions! Also a fun fact, khakis and chinos are the same! 😃 Thanks for stopping by!

[@chowmonkey2002]

I find jeans way more comfortable. Only reason I started to check them out due to a new job which needs a more dressed look.

[@theDapperVault]

@chowmonkey2002 where do you get your jeans from? I've not found any pair of jeans that's even close to chino in terms of comfort.

[@chowmonkey2002]

@@theDapperVault maybe because I wear them my entire life and I got used to the rather stiffness of the fabric but I currently love my Levi’s, Calvin Klein, Nautica jeans. I do have Boss jeans and I do wear them occasionally but the fit is too low on my waist. I tried Amazon jeans but although the fabric is ok the fit is a disaster. If prefer slim fit or tapered. Not skinny. If I could find chino’s that would almost be like jeans I would go for them. But the mostly soft fabric feels odd when you wear jeans for 30 years at least.

[@btw-3006]

Interesting you say that because I find chinos to be more comfortable than jeans and a lot more versatile.

[@chowmonkey2002]

@@btw-3006 probably what you are used to. I’m 58 and have been wearing jeans since I was a kid.

[@Razzzordback]

My advice, never buy chinos online. The lack of consistency in sizing by manufacturers is a nightmare. And let's not be guided by the label and size. Because often, for example, Zara gives the size according to body measurements, but in fact the pants are sewn for a certain range. It may turn out, as in my case, that chinos a size smaller than what the manufacturer suggests for our body dimensions will fit better

[@theDapperVault]

Agree but not everyone has time to shop in-store. Find a good and reputable brand and if the fit isn't right, tailor it up!

[@viniciusabreu3288]

Dude, come on, no time for shopping? People nowadays have serious issues with time management, that's the problem. If someone has 2 hours to scroll tiktok, they surely have time for shopping, it is a matter of priority.

Thanks my dude

[@nhlakaniphomiya380]

Great video, I'm a chinos addict.

[@emrys3064]

Hey all correct but is this chinos a bit tight in knee area? Like other length and stuff is okay but for me knee area a bit tight and has this waves.. Not too much but a bit like not that plain straight look like there is no waves.. Sorry for my English. :) I have never tried chinos I always go with jeans, slim fit jeans, formal pants and stuff.... Is this normal in chinos?

[@theDapperVault]

A well fitted chino pants should not feel tight in the knee area my friend!

Can you advise the type of socks we can use? Long dress socks, no show?

[@theDapperVault]

For chinos? Both are suitable. Depends on the shoes you're wearing and the look you're going for.

[@muawiyashaikh1695]

Good job man

[@theDapperVault]

Thanks my guy!

[@guilladogui8259]

Do you have any brands ? That are good to choose from ?

Where did you get your loafers?

[@Justposted.]

You can shorten them but not longer. I think they should fit good from the waist.

[@theDapperVault]

Generally, yes. Some tailored ones can actually have fabric hidden for lengthening 😄

[@Johnnyboybravo]

I'm a guy who tends to get too hot. I also like shirts that are poly/silk feel (which helps to reduce heat). However, when I find certain shirts like these, I tend to mainly find those that are see-through (showing nipples). Do you have any recommendations to where to buy some good shirts like what you are wearing in this video? Thank you!

[@jesseruiz417]

Just got a lot of nice shirts like that from H&M, that’s why I’m here looking for the right chinos now lol

[@jesseruiz417]

Forever21 I meant not H&M. Also weird how the guy liked your comment but didn’t respond

[@xcoyco]

Tailor should be your best friend. 😅

[@theDapperVault]

100% right!

[@ehasanalam7965]

Thank you.

[@theDapperVault]

Anytime

[@Chernochegger]

2:57 first of all, that's not what a full break looks like. Those pants are far too long. Second, full breaks work better with wider ct chinos

[@theDapperVault]

You might want to start a channel and help us guys out then 😊

[@Halejandrino]

Full break is fine. No break or ankle is a trend. Plus won’t work for short people.

[@theDapperVault]

False. A perfectly fitted outfit makes shorter people look taller. Take the Modest Man for example, he looks tall in all his videos. Break preference is well, a preference. 😉

[@Halejandrino]

@@theDapperVault false back at you. Pant breaks will make a shorter dude look taller rather than showing his ankles or no break. It is just a fact. Imagine being 5’3 and trying to “tailor” pants to your ankle. Might as well get some capris 🤣

[@paulmcgreevy3011]

Your leg length with no socks shown here is how women wear trousers. Men’s Trousers need to sit very slightly above the shoes.

[@theDapperVault]

Whatever floats your boat buddy! 🙂

[@altemose_prime]

I want chinos that fit. So far, all chinos are a crotch vise. Sit scars make the pants look awful. So wear them if you don’t plan on sitting. Razzzz is right. I have three pairs of the same Levi’s. All are different sizes and they all fit. I’m a 34” waist. in Dickies, I’m a 38”. In Levi’s I am a 34” and 36”. Ridiculous.

[@theDapperVault]

A problem only a tailor can solve!

[@simontay4851]

If your pants are too long, just pull them up a bit higher.

[@theDapperVault]

Only works to a certain extent! Get the right fit champ!

[@rlkinnard]

Chinos should have a small break. You are not going to buy perfectly fitting pants 95% of the time so buy a good fit and take them to a tailor. They can be worn in all but the most formal settings at work, in court, at a formal dinner.

[@theDapperVault]

Thanks for the comment buddy! But breaks are purely a preference! Whatever said in the video is merely a guide on the modern fit! 😃

[@rlkinnard]

@@theDapperVault i guess that i should have said that chinos with a break can be used for semi formal wear in an office whereas without a break at all would be quite informal. At least that is what i learned from my father.

[@NostalgiaforInfinity]

2:48 No thank you. I'm not going to wear women's pants.

[@omens3403]

Half break is ok too

[@theDapperVault]

Do a half break/full break if you're afraid of the modern fit 😉

Too slim ! I’m worried with my sperm count if I wear those slim fitting chinos. Looks so uncomfortable especially when you’re sitting down .

too tight
