CPEB_Clothing_Shorts_Chino_Text

Smart casual dressing gets a lot easier with a good pair of chino shorts in the wardrobe. Our collection spans classic neutral shades like stone, tan and [navy](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/shorts/chino/f/Colour--Blue) through to bolder [black](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/shorts/chino/f/Colour--Black) and brighter tones, so there's a colour to suit every taste. Tailored lines and a flat-front finish give chino shorts a polished edge over more casual styles, while added stretch in the fabric keeps them comfortable for long summer days. Whether you're after a sharp look for the office on dress-down days or something smart enough for a garden party, chino shorts strike that balance between relaxed and refined.

Sizes run from S right through to 6XL, with elasticated waist options available for those who prefer a more forgiving, all-day fit. Shop trusted names including Jack &amp; Jones, Napapijri, Only &amp; Sons and D555 alongside our own Jacamo styles, all designed with that warm-weather versatility in mind. Pair them with a crisp [shirt](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/shirts) and [loafers](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/footwear/shoes/loafers) for a tailored finish, or keep things relaxed with a plain [t-shirt](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/t-shirts-vests) and [trainers](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/footwear/trainers) for weekend wear. Whatever the occasion, chino shorts are an easy way to look put together without trying too hard.

FAQ's_Clothing_Shorts_Chino

Chino shorts are tailored shorts made from cotton twill, recognised for their clean lines and flat-front finish. They originated from military trousers and have become a smart-casual menswear essential.

What are chino shorts?

Chino shorts pair well with [polo shirts](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/polo-shirts), [short-sleeve shirts](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/shirts/f/Sleeve%20Length--Short%20Sleeve) or smart [t-shirts](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/t-shirts-vests) for a put-together summer look. A belt in a complementary colour adds a tailored finishing touch.

How do you wear chino shorts?

[Loafers](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/footwear/shoes/loafers) or [boat shoes](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/footwear/shoes/boat-shoes) give chino shorts a smarter, refined edge, while clean white [trainers](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/footwear/trainers) offer a more relaxed alternative. [Sandals](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/footwear/sandals) work for a laid-back holiday look but are best avoided for smart-casual settings.

What shoes to wear with chino shorts?

Chino shorts should fit close to the body at the waist without being tight, with a tailored, straight line through the leg. Avoid excess fabric bunching at the thigh, as this undermines their smart-casual appeal.

How should chino shorts fit?

Chino shorts traditionally finish just above the knee, striking a balance between smart tailoring and warm-weather comfort. This length flatters most builds and suits both casual and smart-casual styling.

Should chino shorts be above the knee?

Yes, chino shorts are a quintessential smart-casual staple thanks to their structured cut and refined cotton twill fabric. They're a reliable choice for summer events, garden parties or relaxed office settings.

Are chino shorts smart casual?

Neutral shades such as stone, [navy](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/shorts/chino/f/Colour--Blue), [khaki](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/shorts/chino/f/Colour--Green) and white are the most versatile chino shorts colours, pairing easily with most tops and footwear. These tones also transition well between casual and smart-casual occasions.

What colours of chino shorts are most versatile?

Chino shorts can suit a relaxed summer wedding, particularly if the dress code is casual or the event is outdoors. Pair them with a smart [shirt](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/shirts) and [loafers](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/footwear/shoes/loafers) to keep the look appropriate.

Can chino shorts be worn to a wedding?

Chino shorts are a specific type of cotton short made from twill-weave fabric, giving them a slightly textured, durable finish. General cotton shorts may use a plainer weave and a more casual, less tailored cut.

What is the difference between chino shorts and cotton shorts?

Many of our chino shorts range include a small percentage of elastane for added stretch and comfort. This makes them easier to move in while retaining their smart, tailored appearance.

Do chino shorts have stretch?

[Polo shirts](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/polo-shirts), [shirts](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/shirts/formal) and plain crew-neck [t-shirts](https://www.jacamo.co.uk/shop/c/clothing/t-shirts-vests) all complement the tailored look of chino shorts. Lightweight knitwear also works well for cooler summer evenings.
