Boys' Chinos for Ages 8 to 15
Boys' chinos for ages 8 to 15 sit between school trousers and joggers. They look smarter than a tracksuit and feel more relaxed than a suit trouser, so they suit a family meal, a party or a day out with a polo shirt, a checked shirt or a jumper. Chinos are traditionally made from cotton twill, and the exact fabric and fit for each pair is listed on its product page.
Pick the size by height, not age. A 10-year-old usually takes 146 cm and a 13-year-old usually takes 164 cm. If he is between sizes, go up one and turn up the hem until he grows into it. Chinos are cut closer than joggers, so if he is broad for his height, the next size up will be more comfortable. Wash them inside out to keep the colour even. For joggers and other styles, see Trousers & Joggers.
