Soulland ‘Workers’ Chino

selectism - soulland-workers-chino-01

We’re noted fans of Soulland here, they give pieces great quirky touches (remember that fedora cap?). What elevates these chinos above a pair of bog-standard chinos is the shade of blue – a few shades above the usual navy, but not so light that you look out of place wearing them in winter – and the pressing. We keep on hearing about how pressed trousers/chinos/jeans are due for a comeback, but this is our first time seeing it in a ‘real’ setting. We were on the fence with regards to this trend, but if they’re as good as these we’ll get behind it. (Azita)

Naked & Famous Selvage Chino

We saw Naked and Famous back at BBB and we were impressed with the quality, fit, materials and outlook of the brand. We weren’t so impressed with our picture taking skills, which made the collection look like something H&M would turn away. Thankfully someone who does know how to take a picture has captured their selvage chinos.

If you’re like us, you’re probably looking to give the indigo denim a break. Not give them up forever, mind – just give them a few more days in the wardrobe whilst you explore new colour options. These beige chinos are a nice halfway house between jeans and chinos and the colourway leaves plenty of room for colour experimentation. They’re also vanity sized, so you can feel slim asking for a 32″ waist when you’re really 35″. (Blue in Green)

Detailed shots after that leap.
