For us, chinos are a natural complement to tweed (or even corduroy) jackets, and of course chinos will produce a more casual look, in part because of their propensity for creasing.<br /><br />Your comment shows that we still have some national differences in dress, which is, in my opinion, a good thing. I further think that if you believe that tweeds and chinos don't mix, you shouldn't wear them together. You'd be uncomfortable, and that would negatively affect how you look.Young Fogeynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-68392311481015245332012-10-03T13:05:33.176-07:002012-10-03T13:05:33.176-07:00Nice jacket.

I only ever wear khakis or chinos like jeans, because they look and feel like thin jeans masquerading as trousers. They also crease too badly to complement a tweed jacket. Cords work better, but it's perhaps a little too warm for those yet.<br /><br />It might just be that I'm not From the U.S. and thus have no affinity to or history with khaki pants. Roger v.d.

A lot of my own outfits lately have been very Trad/Ivy/'60s campus style with a healthy dose of military surplus or military-inspired elements. I think the two styles harmonize surprisingly well. Also I dig the pocket square.Christopher Redgatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08234961734623304619noreply@blogger.com
