Equivalent to older (5 to 10 years old) Banana Republic Chinos? /u/Extreme-Garlic5477 /r/malefashionadvice

Hi folks,

Weird, for some reason I can’t post if I have the word Aiden in the title. If I remove it, it lets me post. Anyway…

Standard Banana Republic Aiden Slim cotton chinos have been good pants for me over the last decade. 30/30 fits me well. They last a long time for for me. They eventually became called Tailored Slim I believe. Same as the Aiden apparently.

They do not seem to sell these any longer. I tried on current Banana Republic slim chinos and they felt baggier/longer in the same 30/30. Maybe mine have just been washed so many times they shrank and these new ones will too? Has the fit changed?

I see that the Banana Republic Factory Outlet has slim chinos and they say “formerly Aiden fit”. But I’m not in love with the idea of outlet quality pants. I wear each pair once a week and they get washed often and I like them to last.

J. Crew slim felt baggy/long too.

Maybe I just need to let them shrink and can’t really compare them to my well-worn current pants?

What are your go to chinos presently if you were happy with standard Banana Replica Aidens 10+ years ago? I just want to replicate that fit and durability/longevity.

Thanks!
