How to wear a grey chino ?
The chino is the trouser that can suit many styles : at The Nines we offer you a complete guide to the chino that will help you wear it in its different colours. Here we'll focus on grey, a wardrobe staple that will go with almost everything else in your wardrobe. It is a dark colour that will be interesting to contrast with lighter touches. Grey is the symbol of professionalism, conformity and formality : it makes for great looks in the professional world. It's clearly the perfect alternative to sad black and to diversify your routine looks!
50 outfits of grey
The grey chino is the ideal companion to spend a winter in style: timeless, sober, it will enrich your most minimalist outfits. We suggest you start with a rather executive look. The chino is made from cotton, so pairing it with a wool suit jacket is a good idea. In addition, mismatching tops and bottoms is becoming increasingly common and gives the outfit a dynamic look. We suggest keeping the shirt simple by opting for white so as not to weigh it down too much and to highlight the grey mix. As for the choice of collar, you can afford the slightest extravagance, but we put the emphasis on the tie. Tie a coloured tie, red for example, to add that subtle original touch while remaining formal.
Next, let's move on to a look that's more casual, for blending into the urban environment and going about your business at the weekend. Already comfortably housed in your grey chino, we propose this look which is in line with the rest. We've selected a long-sleeved polo shirt as the perfect match for our chino. This organic cotton garment with a multi-seasonal weight offers us the freedom of movement that the trousers do, and will keep you comfortable all day long. The long-sleeved polo is above all the smart-casual alternative to the shirt, both chic and sportswear. And now you're all dressed in grey, but don't worry, we won't leave you in that state: we suggest wearing a pair of white trainers on your feet. Your sportswear look will be accentuated!
Editors' picks
This is the corner of the special mentions attributed to certain items that we think will go perfectly with your grey chino looks. So here we propose a rather dressy set, between epicureanism and business, without sacrificing elegance. It's a shirt that we chose, and not just any shirt ! The reverse collar is one of our favourites here, and when worn as is, without a jacket or anything superfluous, the result is absolutely distinguished. Plus we chose it in its sky blue colour, which goes perfectly with the grey. Finally, if you want to push the detail and play it trendy like Benoît, steal his idea of putting on a pair of coloured socks, red or green. Shhh, we didn't tell you...
