Comfy and durable chinos that live up to their infantry origins
The first ever chinos were standard military-issue back in WWII, and they quickly gained popularity back home as civilians caught onto their rugged comfort and unmistakable style. When the folks at Taylor Stitch stumbled across deadstock military chino material and set out to recreate it with 100% organic cotton, the idea for the Slim Foundation Pant was born—an updated, modern cut that’s trim and sleek, and all the detailing of the original chinos that took the world by storm. When it comes to your year-round wardrobe, it pays to build on solid ground.

About Taylor Stitch
Getting ahold of Taylor Stitch’s apparel is like going back in time—to an era before cheap, disposable clothes flooded the market and our Instagram feeds. This stuff is built well, for the long haul, from durable fabrics sourced from handpicked mills around the world. And Taylor Stitch knows, especially after a couple years of wear, their duds will be some of the softest, and hardest-wearing in your closet. It might just be the “Taylor” in their name, but their clothes really do have the fit and feel like they were made one-at-a-time.
