Traditional coordinate (3) “Chino pants
Chino pants” are a type of trousers made of cotton or polyester (and rarely linen) fabric called “chino-cloth.” In the Ivy League at that time, it was forbidden to wear denim until the 1970s, and it is said that chinos, which could be worn both actively and neatly, were the mainstream. The silhouette was based on a piped stem that fell stooped without changing thickness down to the feet. The length of the pants should be just the right length, and for casual wear, roll them up to create a light impression.
