The Chino Fit Guide
A menswear staple since the late 1940s, the cotton chino has endured because of its durability, versatility and utility value. Here are M.J. Bale’s greatest chino hits and their fits for you to leg it this summer.
Slim Fit
Our most fitted silhouette and an M.J. Bale OG. Our Slim Fit chinos have a narrower, tapered leg opening (37.5cm) for an athletic appearance. Crafted
from robust cotton stretch for year-round comfort.
Regular Fit - Straight Leg
A classic, balanced silhouette with room through the seat and thigh and a straight fall from the knee to hem (with a 39.5cm-41cm leg opening). Our most versatile fit. Woven from durable cotton-elastane and available with belt loops (Reed Dobby Chino, Redford Chino) or pleated with side-adjusters (Rhode Chino) for a tailoring-inspired aesthetic.
Regular Fit - Wide Leg
A more relaxed silhouette. With a fuller shape from thigh to hem, a 40.5 cm leg opening, and crafted from a lightweight cotton-stretch fabric, this contemporary chino is perfect for warmer weather.
Relaxed Fit - Straight Fit
Our most relaxed and fashion-forward fit, this chino is more generous around the seat and thigh with a 42cm leg opening. Crafted from robust workwear-inspired cotton twill, this style features single-pleats, belt loops, and metal side adjusters.
