These are great for the value and versatility. The material is definitely lightweight, I don’t think they’ll end up with a soft, broken-in finish, nor do I think they’re intended that way. They’re crisp, fantastic for humid climates, and drape nicer than heavier chinos. I like the back pocket flaps and denim-style button on the waist, adds a casual touch. I’ve worn these with a polo (can even go down to a t-shirt if you feel inclined), and also a blazer and tie. A higher rise helps with overall fit, I appreciate that rises are creeping higher in newer releases. I’d say they sit just a smidge lower than a fresh pair of STF 501’s. The “relaxed fit” is really more of a classic straight fit. They have the slightest taper from the knee down, nothing visually drastic, just enough to let one’s thighs breathe. One more thing to note, while I endorse these chinos as nice for casual wear, they need to be hit with an iron out of the washer. The lightweight material wrinkles too much out of the wash. Only have to do it once though, wrinkles fall out nicely, just don’t expect to look pristine. Props to Levi’s for a pair of chinos with a good cut, nice details, and no stretch.

Light and comfortable. Love wearing these pants!!!!!

Light, breathe, and relaxed - perfect casual pant for summer. Best of all, 100% cotton.

Angenehmer Tragekomfort und sehr gute Verarbeitung.

Très bonne coupe. Le tissu lightweigh est très bien : léger et fin mais ayant une bonne tenu. Rendu impeccable.

Light strong fabric, keep you cool even in very hot weather, ideal for hot weather.

These lightweight, comfortable chino's arrived before the due date, and didn't disappoint. I wore them to travel in hot weather, and kept cool throughout. I am very pleased with my Levis chino's.
