A refined interpretation of the earliest military chinos, celebrated for their comfort, versatility, and impressive ruggedness. Equally at home in garages and workshops as they are offices and city streets, The Foundation Pant revives the rugged roots of a beloved menswear staple, built to help you start your day on solid ground.

The Foundation Pant project started when we discovered some deadstock military chino material and decided to reverse-engineer it with 100% organic cotton. We chose a balanced weight (8-oz.) that feels great all year round, and because it’s been garment dyed and washed, they have the character of a well-loved vintage piece, and will continue to pick up nuance with wear.

  • 8-oz. 100% organic cotton twill.
  • 5.5-oz. 100% organic cotton herringbone pocketing.
  • Garment dyed and washed for a soft, lived-in feel.
  • Front slash pockets for easy entry.
  • Low profile welt coin pocket inset into the waistband.
  • Two back welt pockets. Right pocket features button closure.
  • Bound fly and outseam.
  • YKK zip fly with 4-hole vintage military-style button closure.
  • Wash cold and tumble dry low.
  • Made in China.

Olivia E. ★★★★★

These have quickly become my everyday go-to — the organic cotton drapes nicely but still holds that WWII-style structure without being stiff. The khaki color pairs with everything I own, and after a month of washes they still look sharp.

Harper ★★★★☆

The fabric has that sturdy military feel but it’s not stiff at all, which surprised me for a khaki this tough. I’ve worn them two days straight and they still look crisp, no bagging at the knees. Just wish the pockets sat a bit higher, but that’s a minor gripe.

Jason L. ★★★★☆

The fabric has that sturdy, military-grade feel without being stiff—it’s held up through a full work week and still looks sharp. Only knock is the khaki shade runs a touch lighter in person than the photo, but it pairs fine with anything.
