What To Look For In The Best Khakis

Now that we've seen what some of the best khaki pants look like, let's take a look at what makes a pair perfect for you. When looking for a great pair of trousers, here are some factors you may want to consider:

Flat Front or Pleated?

When buying a pair of khakis, one of the first things you'll want to consider is whether you'd like a flat front or pleated design. Take a look at these option from Berle to see the difference:

Flat Front vs Pleated

At first glance, there might not seem to be much of a difference here. But look closer. You’ll notice the obvious pleating on the front of the pleated pants. This pleating is typically characteristic of a more formal pair of trousers. The pleating gives you an even silhouette when you sit down, which is important for looking your best in job interviews, formal events, and business meetings.      

Flat front khakis, on the other hand, are exactly what you think: flatter, simpler, more casual. That isn’t to say that they’re better. It’s simply a matter of preference. So, all else equal, deciding on the best khaki pants for you could come down to your preference for flat front or pleated.

Performance Matters

Since many casual khakis pants are designed for everyday situations, it only makes sense that they include the kind of “everyday” quality that helps them handle the wear and tear that comes with routine use. In short, performance matters when looking for the best men's khaki trousers. It’s not just how the trousers look. It’s also about how well they hold up to daily issues like stains and regular washing.

How do you know if you’re getting a lot of performance out of your trousers? It can be hard to tell after the first wash or two. It’s the extended durability of a pair of pants that really counts.

Featured Pieces

If you're looking for great performance, look no further than our Performance Dress Khakis. The fabric is 100% cotton, but it’s fashioned into a wrinkle- and stain-resistant cotton twill that’s capable of handling the daily grind. That will give you more use for your dollar. These may just become your favorite pair of pants in your entire dresser.

Beyond Khakis – Dress Denim

If you’ve already found the best men’s casual khaki pants, you might want to turn your attention to an alternative: Dress Denim. Think of it as a point between true dress pants and the casual appeal of denim. It’s a great way to veer off the beaten path of khaki pants and wear something different to the office or to that next social event. Dress denim is also 100% cotton, which means you can expect the same comfort and reliability as you do with any of the casual khaki options here at Berle.
