Hey everyone,
Looking to purchase some Bonobos Weekday Warriors dress pants and I am looking for some advice on fits. Looking to either get their tailored or slim fits but not sure which fit to get. Looking for something that will not be too slim to avoid the super skinny jeans look but at the same time I want something pretty fitted/slim.
If anyone can share some insight, guidance, or suggestions on either the tailored or slim fit pants, whether it's from experience or from a friend, please do share!
Personally would advice against Bonobos. Purchased clothes there several times, each time was a disappointment
Which is better, Bonobos or BluffWorks?
I own both and think the Bonobos fit and material is better. Having said that, the BluffWorks are also pretty awesome and made with a different material (polyester). Quality wise, I would give the edge to Bonobos. They are two different type of pants although BluffWorks is coming out with their new line of Chinos that i have not tried yet.
I have purchased a pair of jeans and a pair of khaki's from Bonobos with the following results.
The jeans were great. I bought the regular fit (forget exact name) with boot cut. Bonobos boot cut is nothing like other jeans where it's a very large opening. Actually, in my opinion with Bonobos boot cut it just looks like regular jeans and not skinny jeans. Also, I have decent sized legs because I have not skipped a leg day in years.
I had a terrible experience with the Khakis however. The fit was too large and so was the waist for some odd reason (same size ordered as the jeans). Also, the Khakis had a high rise which I apparently missed when ordering. It makes them look very bad in my opinion, almost like high waisted mom pants or something.
If you're looking for khaki's I recommend Bill's Khaki's. They're a smaller maker in Reading, PA and I love their fit and quality. If you order from Bill's get their slim fit because they run larger in general.
Hope this helps.
For bonobos waist size would you say to size down one or two sizes?
I would say the run just slightly larger i.e. ordered 32 waist seemed more like a 33
The only experience I've had with bonobos so far is the washed chinos. Personally I enjoy them, but my opinion is biased because they're the first pair of chinos I've found that will fit my thighs without me having to buy a size large and tailor down.
They have free shipping/returns both ways I believe with the first time customer coupon (with a 20% off as well). You could always order and see for yourself.
Agreed on the waist size, it seemed like it ran one size larger on the wool dress pants. I just ordered a pair about two months back and have been satisfied with them so far, will probably order another pair soon. I think if you're a new customer you receive 20% off your first purchase.
I actually had a fitting not too long ago. If you can, I would recommend scheduling an appointment to get the best fit for you. If you want a slim look I would go with the slim straight. The slim tailored will be more of a skinny fit. With slim straight go with true to size and with slim tailored go +1 waist bigger.
