For example, the burnt-orange chinos I wore today.
Statistically speaking, I think you would find that most people view chinos as
a fairly casual garment. As I have mentioned before I have a sort of mullet
aesthetic to dressing myself: business up top (shirt and tie) party below
(jeans, chinos or shorts).
As such, I figured that the chinos would transfer rather seamlessly between the business settings of work, to the casual setting of dinner with friends, meaning that all I’d have to do is swap out my shirt and tie for a t-shirt.

I think for me, personally, I’m only going to feel
comfortable in chinos if they’re paired with a collared shirt.
