Dear bros, any one can recommend where to buy light beige chinos? Looking for either straight cut or more tapered and slim kind. TIA

Uniqlo, for the price I don't think you can find any better quality ones out there. Problem is that their fit don't flatter most of us that much, so you might have to spend slightly more on alterations.

Uniqlo ard 50. H&M too. Gap more expensive. Topman and cotton on carry too. Quality i would give to uniqlo and gap.

Go shop 1day n try all. Can find outlets for all these brands within walking distance in orchard.

Gap $80 RRP
Dockers alpha $70 on discount

So far these are the only office worthy chino for me. But my work environment is not like everybody.

Uniqlo chinos too low quality but can't complain much for that price. Topman, Zara prices might as well go for Dockers better quality material and always got promo. But if money no issue get Dr Denim, Norse, Acne, or can also consider tailor made.

Uniqlo is good quality IMO. I wonder why ppl say too low quality. Can't beat the price especially when they have sale. I have 3 pairs chinos bought from Uniqlo. Quite ok with the fit, can live with it.

Only managed to shop H&M, uniqlo, Zara, top man today. Personally feel that Zara and uniqlo quality not too bad, however I couldn't really find a light beige/cream color chinos. Mostly are a shade too dark, nearing a light kaki colour

Ya right. Maybe I'm too slim, hence the fit is abit off and the length is too long. Bought a top man chino fit and and length was ok for me, material not as comfy as uniqlo though.

if you really that hard to fit and need a color not easily found in shop, should try to tailor. dun waste your time in shops and save up for a few quality pieces.

Provided tailors also carry chinos and in that specific colour. Most cheaper tailors probably dont, probably Dylan and e higher end ones has that but it will set back $200? So see if can find cheaper alternative first :) thanks all bros!

200 will get you much better than chinos material at somewhere like Dylan's...can probably go for linen or better already...
Chinos might be around 130ish? Can't really remember.

Buy your own cloth around (30 per trousers lenght) and go to a budget tailor to CMT (around 40). Can be done on a budget.
