Best Fitting Men's Khakis or Slacks

Bill's Khakis. But the slenderest fit they have. The full cut will swim on you. And with your hot ass, we wouldn't want that.

Are you a great big, fat person, OP

OP, I'm 6'1", 175 with a nice ass & go exclusively with Reaction by Kenneth Cole. I love the fit, super comfortable, easy care, and nicely accentuates the booty.

Every guy over 40 should wear khakis (Dockers or similar) or slacks. Blue jeans are for younger people, and are designed to have others look at your ass. There comes a time in everyone's life when your ass is something that should not bring attention to itself. I know, in your deluded mind, you're still hot at 63.

Best fitting is a wholly subjective assessment based on your specific body measurements.

That said, there is usually a correlation between how well cut clothing is and cost. It's more expensive to have better fitting garmets which have more shape and contour.

That said, if you're overweight, you probably don't want form fitting.

Best advice if you really want to have well-fitting clothes is to buy pants made of material you find comfortable and something that fits your most oddly proportioned body part (if you have big thighs, big but, etc), then have the pants tailored.

But, seriously - who are you, Jake from State Farm?

UNIQLO

No slacks, no khakis. Fabulous.

Pleats make you look fat.

Who wears pleats today, dude?

I wont even wear creased pants. Flat front only

Bonobos makes excellent fitting pants. I'm not sure what they do but the cut is great and really accentuates my butt.

Professionals wear dress trousers, never khakis. Khakis just announce "Hello, I'll be your server today".

R9, you may not wear pleats, but there are plenty of them on racks and shelves.

Oh yeah, but I don't see many young dudes wearing pleats today. We don't even like creases

Someone got hired at Staples..

Khakis or any dress pants WITHOUT PLEATS ....PLEATS =OLD DUDES wear them

Khakis or slacks whatever looks better dudes AND Khakis with pleats should be donated to the Salvation Army and replaced by plain-front ones.

R11 thanks for the Bonobos recommendation. I've always wondered what their pants were like.

I saw a real hot looking young man wearing khakis with pleats the other day. It made me wonder if they were coming back, since he had a nice sense of fashion. But no question, if you're not pretty thin, pleats just make you look fat.

I like Dockers. Best fit, great quality.

I agree with the dude on Uniqlo for khakis and dress pants...reasonably priced well constructed fit my ass great ;) and they fit perfect and NO PLEATS!

Pleats are beside the point. Khaki pants are what employers like low-level employees to wear so that they will appear servile yet presentable and non-threatening to higher-class customers. Wouldn't be caught dead in them myself.

All the dudes that were for tech firms in my generation are wearing khakis and making over $50k a year some close to a $100k khakis are alright with me a comfortable

[quote]Pleats make you look fat.

Ironically, only fat guys wear them.

Penny's Foundry Line if you're B&T. Great fit.

Remember...those light colors add ten pounds. Don't forget your Spanx for Men!

Men wear pants or trousers, women wear slacks.

I got to Walmart and get a two pack of George men's flat front pants for $25.00. I buy a size bigger. My sister who loves to sew then tailors them to my exact size. I get nothing but compliments. But they're quality pants at a more than reasonable price so the gays won't like them.

I want slacks that don't feature my tight snatch, nothing risqué! If so, then the sex maniacs come out and chase you!

I had no idea Khaki pants were some harsh indicator of low status we all needed to be warned against!?

WALMART!? What a joke...people actually buy and wear clothes from that place?

ALL of those sex maniacs shop there!

No WALMART in NYC

If I walked in the room wearing my tailored Walmart pants you wouldn't be able to tell the difference from any expensive brand. It's all in your fucking head. Even if you can so what? Do you really need a fucking 80 pair of pants?

Mossimo is great if you have a small waist, but fat ass and thighs.

Bonobos and Polo

Dockers D1 slim fit

Who under 57 wears pleats? The cool dudebros certainly don't.

You need to make statement with what you wear. I like these (picture below) slacks. Yes, before you say it, they are a little high waisted. Howver, consider that the trendy the patterns work great with any shoes you wear...even platform shoes. Tight around all the important parts, yet breathable, as all 100% polyester clothing is. The flare bottoms make them great for work, the club, or weekend wear in Ptown, Fire Island or Rehoboth Beach.

All of this for only $14.95. At that price you can buy 3 of each pattern.

This thread is full of people who would be useful on garbage detail.

I'm a nurse and I by all of my scrubs at Walmart. They are the same, sometimes even better quality, than I can find in the expensive uniform stores, and I save 50% to 75% on the price. Why would I waste so much money on a name brand ? And like the previous poster said, no one can tell the difference.

Bonobos Graham Slackers. $66

I have muscular legs/thighs and a big ass and can never find pants that are comfortable. Everything is too tapered for me. I have resorted to buying a size up like Walmart guy has suggested. I guess I should just start getting them tailored. r35 Im looking at Mossimo pants on Target's website and they to look too slim fit.

Fourthing(?) the Bonobos suggestion.

$88, R42.

I only wear J. Crew & Ralph Lauren

Why do not make men's pants so slack in the butt?

[quote] Mossimo is great if you have a small waist, but fat ass and thighs.

Why?

Bonobos expensive but the fit is perfect...compliments always on who makes those paints!

If you have a small waist, with a big ass and thighs, you should choose a soft, flowing maxi skirt , and forget the khakis. Far more flattering.

stop it r49

go in the NUDE

If your proud of your curves R50, you could always choose a mini with a full, flirty, swingy skirt! Your choice, babe!

WWCD?

I luv my KHAKIS from BR

R52, not even funny, dude

Does Nordstrom's still carry Bonobo's?

I order Bonobos online super easy try on at home...fit perfecty and great for my bubble ass

Do Bonobos have wide legs? I have thick thighs too.

How much are they?

Check out the Bonobos site

This is one of those threads that makes me infinitely glad that my employer banned the wearing of skinny jeans. Sure, there were some crying queens in the toilet, being denied their opportunity to flash their tiny junk and nasty bony legs, but at least we all got spared the sight of Ryan from accounts' nasty ass-jiggle as he ran down the office in his red skinny "Levi jeans" (bitch, I know you got those at Tesco).

Bonobos, the online retail company that got its start by offering men's pants free from the woes of "khaki diaper butt," announced Thursday that its founder, CEO and Chairman Andy Dunn, would be stepping down (or, as the company press release describes it, "stepping up") from his role as CEO after eight years and assuming the role of Executive Chairman. Francine ("Fran") Della Badia, formerly the president of Coach's retail division in North America, will be taking on the role of CEO, effective June 1.

I just bought first pair of Bonobos. They are slim fit, blue. I love them, however, my D1 slim fit flat front Dockers fit even better, and are wrinkle-free.

Every once in a while you get lucky and find a brand that gets pretty close to what you’re looking for. For me, in terms of chinos, that has been J.Crew. I favor a slim cut and don’t mind pants being a little tight around the thigh, and have found the 484 fit to be pretty much ideal. It works for me in situations from business to casual to just hanging out. I know that fit isn’t for everyone and I also know that there are definitely guys with bigger quads than me. If you have larger thighs but still want a slimmer fitting pant, I would recommend trying J.Crew’s Urban Slim Fit on for size. They are definitely wider in the thigh while still being slim and tapered.

I live in the South and wear J Crew's lightweight urban fit. I do not a brand label above the rear pocket like Docker's and Banana Republic.

I love threads like this because they point out the diversity of the posters on here.

You've got people working in office parks in small midwestern cities who find Penney's a better choice than Walmart and NYC and LA media types who only shop at Barneys and then everyone in between.

What's appropriate varies tremendously from place to place and from work environment to work environment. Nothing is sadder than an older man trying to look hip, followed only by an older man who looks like he's given up.

I envy people who can just buy a size and that's that. Like I said I have to buy one to two sizes up and have them tailored because my legs are just too big.

I love seeing a nice bulge or tent - or even better, a noticeable VPL - in a pair of khakis.

Me too r67. I look way better in wider legged pants, but they have all but disappeared from the face of the earth since the skinny trend has taken over.

I look at guys over 16 wearing those skinny jeans and pants and wondering how they do it. I would need the material of at least both legs to cover one of my legs.

Given that most American men are pretty large, who is buying all those tight pants? I am pretty slim (31 waist) and a lot of pants/jeans feel tight to me, on my thighs and calves and I don't have beefy legs. What do bigger guys do?

I'm not fat either. I'm 6' 3" and 205lbs. I'm 28. I played hockey and still ma an avid biker and was in the military. I've never overly trained my legs they're just still athletic. I just don't get how men can stay in those skinny jeans. I get uncomfortable just looking at them. I've had to have every pair of pants since about High School tailored for my legs. The upside is you don't walk around in something that doesn't look right on you.

Whenever I buy clothes online, my size is very often sold out (I'm a 28" or 29" waist), but the larger sizes are always in stock or even the only available sizes, so apparently a lot of guys are either lying to themselves and squeezing into too tight pants, there are more slim guys out there than appearances would suggest or manufacturers make really limited supplies of smaller-sized clothes.

Damn R72, where do I meet a guy like you. Former HS jock too (baseball) and rarely meet anyone similar.

Any suggestion on pants for a slim guy with not enough ass? So jealous of you bubble guys.

Anything on the rack R75.

Are these ugly?

They're not ugly at all R77 but the fact remains if you have a body part, height, or weight that is outside of the normal parameters spend $20.00 for a hem and get the baggy taken in. It's amazing how much better you look.

Don't get me started about shirts either. Being 6' 3" I can still find a lot of stuff that fits around me yet most ends at the belly button. Believe it or not I actually get my polo shirts fitted for me. I buy two sizes up and have the taken in, sleeves shortened a little bit and just about a 1/2 inch taken off of in length. It's a pain but again polo shirts fitted for you look really good. Fortunately a lot of button down dress shorts are designed and sold to be fitted for you at the store.

I'm convinced that the modern size chart is made up by skinny Asian men. Since the dawn of Zappos though my size 14 feet haven't had any trouble finding shoes that fit. To sum it up I hate hearing small guys bitch about clothes because fucking everything is fitted for you. I know I'm somewhat bigger than a lot of guys but if you look at me I'm really not ginormous and should be able to find a few things that fit.

Sorry, beefy black dudes with phat asses look great in pleated khakis. Other ethnicities, not so much.

I go with stretch hiking pants that look vaguely like khakis. Odlo and Salomon entre autres.

Honestly r79, beefy black dudes with phat asses look good in anything, and best in nothing.

Even beefy black dudes look hotter in non-pleated pants

Docker's slim fit D2's fit so well, and feel so good. And you just can't stain them.

[quote] I do not a brand label above the rear pocket like Docker's and Banana Republic.

I agree, but the Kentfield pants from the Banana Republic Outlet, uh I mean Factory Store, fit great in the butt and do not have that annoying tag.

You used to have to drive out of town, but it looks like they're opening in urban areas. They've opened a BR Factory Store in downtown Brooklyn, Harlem, and downtown Philly, or you can order online.

They don't look flat front though (or back).

Dockers Men's Signature Khaki D1 Slim-Fit Flat-Front Pant

Yazubi Chino Pants Kyle Slim-Tapered Casual Pants

These fit well.

Calvin Klein slim or athletic body fit

Lanvin.

I like my DOCKERS. I'm 5'10", 185 & can buy just about anything right off the rack. DOCKERS always fit me well. I'm satisfied.

Bonobos & Uniqlo

No pleats

This dude looks good in khakis

Calvin Klein Xtreme Slim Fit

r4 I take issue with that. I work as a budget analyst at a chemical plant, and almost everybody on the plant wears jeans. Yes, some look awful in them and are older, but some are young and look even worse. I've seen some hot 40+ men in jeans here, who asses could put Sean Cody models to shame.

Nothing wrong with jeans bro

I like khakis and jeans but being a former football player and bodybuilder, its harder finding pants that fit right. You got to buy a size 40 waist and then taken into to a 34 waist to get them to fit.

Plus, being a tall bb'er you also got to find the length. Someone messed tailoring fees. They can get expensive.

Bonobos tailored slim fit

Bonobos

Bonobos pants are made for skinny dudes. If you have a big ass or thighs they don't work. They are overpriced too.

How would anyone know what would fit OP without knowing his measurements?

And ditto to what R96 said-- I've definitely seen guys over 40 who can rock a pair of jeans. Rob Lowe. Brad Pitt. Jared Leto.

But yeah, fat flabby dudes should stick to khakis.

Bonobos slim stretch

...for jeans I like Nudie...

Stretch slim fit is best

Bonobos

Bonobos tailored fit stretch

Scotch and soda makes nice tailored slim cut khakis. About $130 but super nice with some spandex for stretch. And to all the "fashionistas" pleats are making a come back. It's already in the finer stores.

Express has trendy, butt-tapered styles. Go try them on.

I don’t care what’s fashionable. I hate pleats and never will buy pants with them

Topman is great

Pleated caftans are so hot right now.

Whatever you buy, get them tailored to fit YOU.

If you have a fit athletic build, but pants with stretch in slim fit

What are these?

R115 guys with fit athletic builds are not posting on DL, hon.

My pants are too loose on me.

Rhone sports pants

Old Navy.

R12 what is the difference?
