What hem width and which colour are you thinking about?

I am size 36 most often, so about 23, 24, to 25 max. Something in beige/khaki variety.

I have no doubt, this Cushman pair should be attractive. But I'm somehow in the mood for a more traditional beige/khaki range... Thank you!

Sorry!

maybe these?

So, the BR Original Specs would work, I think. The others are wider.
The Westpoint fabric which they are also made of is quite interesting. It's a bit shiny, very smooth. And probably due to that the beige colour, which I have, changes according to the light.

The Pherrows are also very nice, with the khaki being more of a yellow-green. They fit smaller, I have a 36 vs. my "normal"34.

The Deluxeware have currently a bit more of a brownish khaki colour. They are made of LHT chino cloth, but tightly woven.

The TwoMoon are also great, but fit smaller like the Pherrows.
The khaki is also more of a green-yellow.
The 529 is a slimmer fit. The 536 are a bit wider.

Colimbo Overland campaign trousers might also be an option. They are still available at mushman in 36.

The Freewheeler ones look very good, too.

Thank you! Lot of info to consider. What do you think about Joe McCoy and Jelado mentioned above?

[indigoeagle]

I haven't seen them in person. But both probably high quality and attention to detail, too.
The above mentioned are pretty reasonably priced, except for the Deluxeware, which is a bit more expensive.

Thanks again for the recommendations. Freewheelers quality looks very convincing as always, but a narrow 22 cm hem is hardly a pass. The back rise of 50 cm is also puzzling. More, I have quite a few various FW bottoms already, and would like to widen the brands selection. Some mentioned budget pants come with a zipper, buttons are preferable. I like the Deluxeware, but yes, the fabric is a little darker. Colimbo seems to be the most appropriate option, especially considering the price, much more merciful than McCoy and Jelado. Anyway, I am starting to narrow to a few of the most appropriate options. Will try to check availability and shipping terms.

I got one chino straight leg pants from Phigvel and I’m considering buying the wide officer pant from them as well.

 

[Double 0 Soul]

I've got these.. they're from Butter Goods an Aussie, 90s inspired skate brand.. i bought them from Slugger in Sheff.

The're wide leg pants/chinos in a reasonably heavy herringbone cotton, more like bouldering pants

Super wide with a short 28" inseam but because the top block is so deep it works out closer to 30" and just skims my pumps which is exactly what i was looking for.

..i wanted some comfy lounging pants (they have a button and zipper with a semi-elasticated waist). without having to give up on life entirely and reaching for sweat pants

Shhh! don't tell Maynard and certainly don't tell Edmond!!

..i really like them! i find myself wearing them all the time

btw if anyone has recommendations for a wide pair of denim chinos I’d love to look into it. 

At Last & Co have denim trousers with chino type pockets.

Thanks again. Just received it, hemmed at a local tailor's shop. The detailing is very nice, so is the fabric.

Contacted them. Let’s see where it goes. 
 

I think it’s either going to be At Last or belafonte. Problem with Belafonte is that they are around 13oz and unsanforized and I want something lighter like 8-10oz tops, for the scorching summer months. 
 

About the Colimbo chinos - they look really good. Also it seems like they don’t have that spark/tinge that the BR chinos have, that took me like 3-4 washes to remove.

There is a slight sheen, but it's not too noticeable. It will go away, I think. The fabric is interesting, and it has quite an intriguing colour, which is hard to pinpoint. It changes with the light. 

[indigoeagle]

Apparently that shiny and smooth property of the fabric is typical for the right hand twill, the WestPoint or Weapon fabric.
In my beige original spec BRs it is indeed quite strong, even though the fabric comes washed (BR 40025A). That colour is quite amazing. It can look quite different depending on the light.

[chicote]

per @Hopethisoneisnttaken’s request, here are some pics of my belafonte “hi-back trousers” in the dark salt&pepper cotton/linen fabric. Sorry for the non-contrasting background lol, the colours should be accurate at least!

I really like the construction of the top block, the waist feels really solid despite the main fabric being pretty light & drapey. Buttons are unobtrusive and don’t cut into me, whether or not I’m wearing a belt. Pocket bag fabric is really nice.

The other side has a nice, discreet coin pocket, which I have a little trouble getting to with my thick Duke belt on but less so with a thin dress belt.

The fabric is really excellent, it’s one of those materials you get lost staring into whenever you have them on. It’s light and soft but the weave is tight and very sturdy-feeling, and I love how the herringbone patterns swim in and out of one another, it’s truly a beautiful design.

Some close ups:

and some fit pics now they’ve been worn a few days:

Thanks for looking!

In fact, you can still find Warehouse 1082 in online stores. In particular, Son of a Stag and Burg & Schild. I bought mine, however, in 2020. Interesting slacks, but too demanding on other items of clothing, IMHO. In the photo they before shrink. After washing, they sat down and the denim became slightly shaggy.

@chicote thank you! They seem really nice. Digging the details and the fabric looks amazing. 

[Hopethisoneisnttaken]

Got the denim hi back trousers from belafonte. The darker pictures are from before the machine wash and lighter ones are post wash. The fabric is 13oz unsanforized denim. Seems non selvedge. Overall I’m impressed with everything about these, except for maybe the thin fabric used for pocket bags and the very narrow opening of the back pockets. 

[Punch]

In continuation. This is what the Warehouse 1082 looks like after the shrinkage procedure. It was better before shrinkage, right? )) But, I still like them. The photos are so-so, there is little light.

Still a very good fit. I guess next time you can buy a size up if you want the wider look.

[mlwdp]

Phigvel chino pants.  Don’t remember the style name.  Inside of right pocket has a nice little tag.

The only thing I don’t like about them is that they’re zippered not button fly.

Not really a Chino but should still fit in here, Two Moon Westpoint Pants. Bought from @indigoeagle

[indigoeagle]

They look good on you- great.

[buler]

I'll put in a vote for the Orslow slim fit army trouser. Great fabric and nice fit. Not skinny fit, but not baggy. 

[itschrisb]

Not sure if the Left Field chinos are on anyone’s radar but I’ve had a few pairs and they’re awesome. The fit might be a little more modern than a classic chino but otherwise I think they check all the boxes in their details.

[vIGGiou riou]

I have 3 pairs of chinos. Khaki from Orslow- I feel them too much modified to present cut of trousers. Beige from RMC- my favourite. Not slim, not bagy. And Olive from Buzz Rickson- very nice, I think more close to original fit with a lot of room all around the body, just in waist tight.... but I love them all...

[mstax]

This might be a long shot, but does anyone know if there is an online store stocking the Warehouse 1082 in beige size 38? I have looked far and wide and didn’t find anything. I emailed Warehouse and they said they are not planning a restock soon. 
 

I’m debating that one or the Freewheelers M-1941 chino. Only thinking the FW is a little too tapered for my liking and it seems like that one has a very high back rise.
