That makes it an even tougher decision for me as I really like the clean look of the chinos.
Much appreciated.
Can you explain how that back strap works? Does it function like a belt?
well the cinch back dates back to the 1800's..it was a function to tighten the waist in an age when belts where not a common thing...
Up to the 1920’s, belts were largely considered decorative and for military uniforms..after World War I belts began appearing on high-end clothing..so alot of pants had the cinch back before World War I..Usually, younger men cut the cinch off to use a belt, and older gentlemen used the cinch and suspender buttons while ignoring the belt loop in the workforce during that time...
just a little trivia
