Chinos, pleated trousers, technical trousers, or even shorts: The Nines offers you a wide range of styles to meet all your expectations!
Trousers by type
Going from a business meeting to an outdoor activity requires a garment suited to every situation. THE NINES therefore designs several types of trousers to help you build your wardrobe. Discover our pleated trousers, our high-waisted shorts, our technical trousers, and our ever-classic pleated chino.
A structure suited to every environment
The type of trouser defines its primary function, its level of formality and its historical origin. From the rigour of the suit trouser to the utilitarian character of the chino or the Hollywood pleated trouser, each style responds to a specific pattern-making architecture. The choice of trouser type depends not only on the fabric, but on its overall construction: the presence of press creases, the type of pockets (Italian or cavalry) and the waistband construction.

The pivot of the style transition
Mastering the different types of trousers allows you to move effortlessly between formal and casual registers. It is the piece that sets the tone for the entire silhouette; the same blazer will change its status radically depending on whether it is paired with a worsted wool suit trouser or a washed cotton chino.
Our tips: how to choose your type of trousers?
Select the architecture of your trousers according to the context:
- The suit trouser: The formal standard. Featuring a sharp centre crease and Italian pockets, it is essential for the office and formal occasions.
- The chino trouser: The smart casual staple. In cotton twill, it offers optimal comfort and a perfect transition between the weekend and relaxed professional life.
- Pleated (sartorial) styles: To assert your style. They add volume at the hips, superior ease of movement and a highly distinguished retro elegance.
