An Original Chino from Nishiwaki, with More Than Just StructureThe fabric is an original 100% cotton textile produced in Nishiwaki, Hyogo Prefecture. The same fabric is also used for the brand’s signature flat-front chinos.While maintaining a firm, substantial feel, a special finishing process adds a subtle fuzziness and fullness to the surface. Rather than simply being crisp and rigid, the fabric has a balanced hand with a touch of supple flexibility.Medium-weight with no sheerness or stretch and a restrained sheen, the fabric combines the durability expected of chinos with a clean, refined appearance. Its versatile character makes it easy to wear across a range of seasons.Simple by Design, with Pleats That Make the DifferenceThe front features two pleats. Beyond creating natural room around the waist, they are an essential detail that allows the wide leg to fall into a clean, beautiful line.Slash pockets on both sides offer easy access while keeping the appearance clean and streamlined. Two welt pockets are placed at the back, providing four pockets in total.Wide, Yet Never SloppyA wide silhouette with more room than the brand’s classic flat-front chinos. The two pleats create generous room around the waist, from which the legs fall naturally toward the hem.Despite its substantial volume, the firm hand of the chino fabric helps define the silhouette, keeping it from looking overly relaxed. It pairs naturally with casual pieces such as T-shirts and sweatshirts, while also working effortlessly with shirts and jackets for a more refined look.All the everyday versatility of a classic chino, with a contemporary edge added through its silhouette. An easy-to-wear wide chino for those looking to introduce a subtle change from slimmer trousers.
