Chino Fabric — Manufactured for Durability, Colour Range & Everyday Comfort
Chino fabric is a cotton twill fabric known for its durability, softness, and versatility, commonly used in chino pants, shorts, and jackets, as well as a range of other clothing and accessories.
One of chino fabric's defining features is its ability to take a wide range of colours, a big part of why it's a go-to choice for colourful, casual clothing. Chino pants in particular are produced in everything from bright or pastel shades to the traditional neutral tones, khaki, beige, and navy that chino is most associated with. The fabric's twill weave gives it a slight diagonal texture and a durable, rugged feel that holds up to repeated wear.
Chino fabric is also genuinely comfortable. Chino pants are known for their relaxed fit and their ability to move from casual to smart-casual depending on styling. With added stretch and flexibility available in our chino fabric range, it's also a practical choice for activewear and other garments that need some give.
At Premo Denim, we manufacture chino fabric as part of our broader vertically integrated bottom-weight fabric range. The same ISO 9001-2008 certified process and machinery that produces our denim and greige fabric applies here, giving brands a consistent standard whether they're sourcing chino, denim, or greige from us.
