Checked chinos for men

A pair of checked chinos adds character to your wardrobe without making your outfit feel ‘loud’. The check pattern gives you that little extra compared with plain men’s trousers and works just as well for casual wear as it does for smarter occasions. At Suitable, you’ll find checked chinos from the in-house label in Slim-Fit and Modern-Fit, made from cotton, linen and stretch.

How to style checked chinos

The rule of thumb: let the trousers be the focal point of your look. Pair them with plain tops in a colour picked out from the check. A dark navy checked pair looks sharp with a white or light blue shirt for a business-ready feel. Going for something more relaxed? A plain jumper or men’s polo works just as well.

What colours are checked chinos available in?

In terms of colour, Suitable offers dark navy, blue, grey, anthracite and light blue. Subtle checks in these shades are versatile and easy to combine with blazers, men’s waistcoats or a simple T-shirt. A subtle check in dark navy or grey can be worn all year round. In autumn, style it with a dark knit; in spring, wear it with a light shirt and rolled-up sleeves.

Material and fit of checked chinos

The checked chinos are available in cotton, linen and stretch. Cotton with stretch offers freedom of movement and keeps its shape throughout the day. Linen is lightweight and ideal for the warmer months. Choose Slim-Fit for a clean, modern silhouette, or Modern-Fit if you prefer a little more room.
