PME Legend chinos

PME Legend has built a reputation over many years for robust, comfortable trousers that can take a knock. The PME Legend trouser collection is known for combining durable materials with a contemporary fit. With the American Classic Chino, the brand is a favourite for men looking for a versatile pair of trousers for work and downtime.

What makes the PME Legend chino special?

The American Classic Chino is made from high-quality cotton with a touch of elastane (stretch). This blend gives the trousers a soft handle and comfortable freedom of movement. The twill weave adds a subtle texture that looks smart without feeling stiff. A growing number of styles in the collection carry PME Legend’s sustainability label, using organic cotton and recycled materials in production.

A standout detail is the back pockets with flaps that can be worn tucked in or left out. That gives you two looks in one pair. The fit is predominantly Modern-Fit: straight through the hips and gently tapered towards the ankle. This keeps the silhouette sharp without feeling restrictive. Prefer more room? The American Classic Chino Relaxed, with a Regular Fit, is a strong alternative with a wider cut.

How to style PME Legend chinos

A men’s chino is one of the most versatile trousers in your wardrobe. Pair your PME Legend chino with a PME Legend polo or a casual shirt for an easy smart-casual look. For Fridays at the office, navy or anthracite works well under a blazer. At the weekend, go for olive green or petrol with a PME Legend T-Shirt.

What do customers think of PME Legend chinos?

Customers often highlight the fit as a key strength and appreciate the rugged look with the signature flap pockets. Some buy multiple colours after their first pair, precisely because the fit is so consistent. The fabric is on the lighter side, which is worth bearing in mind if you’re after a thick winter trouser. For most of the year, though, that lighter weight is a benefit: the trousers feel comfortable and dry quickly.

Frequently asked questions

Does the PME Legend American Classic Chino fit true to size?

Yes, sizing is consistent. You can order your usual size.

Can I machine-wash a PME Legend chino?

Yes. Wash at 30°C, inside out. Avoid the tumble dryer to prevent shrinkage, and hang the trousers by the waistband.

What’s the difference between Regular Fit and Modern-Fit?

Modern-Fit is slightly tailored for a streamlined look. Regular Fit falls straight down for a classic, roomier fit.

Are PME Legend chinos produced sustainably?

PME Legend is taking steps towards more sustainable production, including using recycled materials and organic cotton. However, not every chino automatically comes with a specific sustainability claim. So be sure to check the composition on the product page.
