1. Chinos
![stylish man wearing a bright red jacket over a white t-shirt with tan chinos and suede horsebit loafers](https://stylegirlfriend.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/mattoomanner-chinos.jpg)
When it comes to what to wear when you can’t (or don’t want to) wear jeans, chinos are the obvious first choice.
These cotton pants come in a variety of weights, though you can expect breathable fabric from any pair you reach for. And the colors? Of course you can opt for a traditional khaki, but you can also expand to other neutral hues like navy, grey, or black. Seasonal colors like burgundy in fall or winter, and salmon for warmer days are also available to you.
The trendy fit right now is pleated pants with a tapered cut that lets you flash some ankle, but when it comes to chinos, you do you.
Flat front, button or zip fly, the best chinos are going to be the ones you’re just as happy to slip into as your go-to pair of jeans.

I can hear you pushing back. “Megan, no way are dress pants as comfortable as jeans.”
Au contraire mon frère!
The right pair of dress pants that fit you well through the hips and leg and are made from a high quality material should feel like butter when slipping into them.
And the feeling of knowing you look more polished in your wool trousers than everyone else in the room? Well, that will go a long way to making you more comfortable, too.
