About the Mili Chinos

Amelia designed the Mili Chinos with details drawn from two pairs of 1950s military chinos in our vintage archive. She’s added our modern relaxed taper fit which is similar in proportion to our 178 Jeans and Fatigue Pants but a little slimmer in the knee and leg opening.

They are made from a soft 9oz peached 100% cotton drill cloth from Brisbane Moss in Todmorden. The cotton is from the US, woven, dyed and finished in Turkey.

There’s enough tension in the weave and weight of the cloth to give a nice firm drape without being too heavy.

Pocketing is the same heavier weight 100% cotton as per all our latest denim jeans.

British-made horn buttons for the fly and back pockets.

Smart side seam front pockets (secret pocket as always in the left pocket bag).

Two rear welt pockets with buttoned flaps and sewn in button bearers.

Made for us in London by Blackhorse Lane Atelier – renowned for their tailoring level of finish and attention to detail.

I've been looking for a pair of chinos for a while and almost pushed the button on a pair, when I got the Hebtroco 'heads-up'. So I waited and grabbed a pair of these, as a birthday gift, courtesy of the fam-a-lam. They're a tad on the pricey side but the quality (and gift-card) were enough to banish that thought. As usual, the fit is spot on but the finish is a step up, over previous HTC troos. The putty colour is perfect, instead of the standard tan. Well worth the investment.

Bought a pair of these new Mili Chinos in Navy and they arrived today. They're the usual quality you expect from HebTroCo. Well put together and look classy. The cut of the trousers is great. Being roomy in the thigh but narrowing at the bottom without being skinny at the hem. They look fine with trainers, shoes or boots. The colour is a lovely deep navy. The cloth is defintely a step up from what I've witnessed in chinos from other brands which can be quite thin and only really suitable for summer use. I'd confidently say you could wear these in winter as an alternative to jeans if you wanted to and your legs wouldn't be cold. Happy with my purchase.

A couple of years ago I enquired about possibly making some chino pattern trousers, I have several HebTroCo canvas and moleskin GVNRs and denim jeans, but wanted something a bit lighter for warmer weather. Well they are finally available, they were so worth the wait! The cut and fit is really comfortable and the finish is staggeringly good. Bit on the pricey side but since all my previous (cheaper) chinos never seemed to last, these look and feel that they will go on for years, so worth it in the long run. As a birthday treat to myself I ordered a pair in each colour and am very happy with them. Ordered them as soon as I saw them on the website (the first day?) and they arrived exactly twenty-four hours later, can't day better than that.
