COMMANDO Chino™ Original Shorts Sizing (6")
All dimensions in the table below are given in inches. These are actual measurements of the item itself. In deciding which size is for you we recommend that you pull out your "go-to" similar garments, and lay them flat on your bed to measure them against the chart below and see what matches up!
The fit
These 6" (average inseam) Casual Chino Shorts are a "low-rise" fit compared to our 7.5" and 4" Work and Summer Chino shorts which are more mid-rise or lower-rise in fit, respectively. These also have a wider, looser leg opening than our other chinos for a more casual, everyday fit.
Sort of in-between waist sizes? If you sometimes or always have issues like a lot of us with "muffin-topping", meaning more than average body fat around your mid-section, we recommend going with the larger size to prevent this from occurring with these shorts.
Especially because...
These shorts will shrink in the dryer!
Because they shrink and chino does not stretch nearly as much as our mesh shorts, you will probably want to get 1 size up from what you would get in our athletic shorts. If they end up a little too loose you can always shrink them in the dryer a few times ;)
Like all premium stretch chino material, the cotton (97%) & spandex (3%) blend will eventually shrink about 0.5" to 1" in all dimensions below if you dry them in the dryer. We strongly recommend cold wash only on "delicate" setting and air drying them, hung or laid flat (prevent most wrinkles by hand smoothing at this stage), followed by a cool iron if necessary.

Chino shorts have been re-invented.
Made of the smoothest, shiniest, stretchiest cotton/spandex blend twill known to man, we’ve taken it light years ahead in comfort by lining the entire inside of these shorts with our signature spandex micro-mesh fabric used to make all of our COMMANDO Mesh™ Shorts!
The Interior Cabin
These shorts have inside-smooth chino side pockets (not cheap canvas or muslin) that are hidden behind underneath the silky mesh lining for an overall smooth interior feel, they have two button-secured back flap pockets, and a soft button fly. Truly, the first chino shorts designed for comfort on the inside! Do you have to go commando in these shorts? Nope. But that’s how smooth and comfortable they are.

These are super comfortable. I am feeling more confident wearing shorter shorts because of the fit on these! Can’t wait to get additional pairs.

I wasn’t sure how the sizing ran with the shorts so I went a little higher than normal… I’ll be wearing these with a belt all summer long because the color and material are perfect. Bright vibrant soft and easy to wear are just some of my favorite things in the shorts do that in spades

I got these to help flush out my collection of shorts for when I go rollerskating weather outside or at the rink… They fit right on point and so much so that if I lose anymore weight I’ll have to get a belt. The color is beautiful the material is soft and are super comfortable.

These shorts have quickly become the only shorts that I wear. They’re light-weight, comfortable, looks amazing, are nicely fitted, and come in great colors. These are the best shorts out there.

I love the way they feel, and they fit me perfectly. I have bigger thighs, so I bought a size up. They still look great. My husband loves how they accentuate my form, too. 😉

I bought these in the stones color so decided to get more and went with the polished walnuts. Both are great and feel good, these are great for all occasions use and very comfortable especially during the hot Texas heat. I plan on trying to stock up on every color because other shorts just don’t work for my body type. Looking forward to making these a staple during the warmer seasons

Besides being super comfortable, they fit amazing and AND I love the button fly! The more I wash them the softer the fabric. Watch the sizing, meaning read peoples reviews, determine the right size for you. Shipping was fairly quick, can’t wait to order more to add to the collection!
