Even the best khaki pants for men can spark a bit of pre-teen PTSD: memories of getting “dressed up” for eighth grade graduation, some older cousin’s wedding, a friend’s bar mitzvah. The uniting through line is that all the best khakis we’ve found remain the endlessly versatile, eminently wearable pants you’ve always been looking for. From mall-brand classics to painstakingly-reproduced throwbacks, these are the 15 best khakis for men in 2026. As proof, take the properly named J.Crew Classic Chino* Pant, a staple of the brand since 1983. Best of all, you can probably pick up a pair within a 15-minute drive from your house.
