Western Rise Evolution Chino: $128

The fabric features a 4-way stretch, stain—and water-resistant, and quick-drying properties, making it ideal for travel.

Key features include:
- 107 GSM weight for a lightweight feel
- Woven twill construction
- Stretch waistband for mobility
- Zippered wallet and front pockets for security
- Extendable inseam from 32″ to 34″

Customer Reviews
Customers love the versatility and lightweight nature of the Western Rise Evolution Chinos. Many highlight how they look more like traditional chinos rather than travel pants, making them suitable for various occasions. The water—and stain-resistant features are frequently mentioned as key selling points.
Customers also appreciate the gusseted crotch and stretch waistband, which provides comfort on long flights or during physically active days.
However, some reviews mention minor drawbacks. A few customers noted that the pants tend to pick up dust, especially when carrying items in the pockets, and that the fabric can make a slight “swishing” sound when walking. Some users commented that these pants may not be ideal for cold climates as they are relatively lightweight.
