Khakis

Does anyone still wear them? Remember Dockers?

It seems difficult to find nice khaki crops for the summer. They go with so many tops and are a nice alternative to jeans in hot weather. I would like a pair of cropped khakis, not capris and not tight to the leg but not wide legs either.

I have a pair of slightly cropped khakis from The Gap that I bought AGES ago, and they still look current. They are cropped just above the ankle area and have cuffs. They are a darker khaki like a dark sand color. I still wear them on occasion. Never had Dockers. J Crew still offers women's khakis I believe and probably The Gap.

Maybe LLBean or Land's End?

Hi @Greeneyedlady21 they are very hard to find, aren't they? I just looked at the Gap's website, they have several styles (I love the wide leg crop chinos) but they also have striaght leg cropped chinos. And 40% off.

I used to get khakis from LL Bean but I haven't checked them out lately.

JJill has khakis I bought them last year. I go to the SALE list and find them there many times.

I held onto a couple very old pairs of khaki style pants for ages.

Looking recently, I didn't see anything that would fit me. But then I came across some cargo pants that are very similar in style. Best of all, they had a size that I could wear. they're comfortable but still skinny (my preference, and they came in nice shades.

I ended up with the gray, the olive, the navy, and surprisingly, even the pink, which I love. They're almost sold out, only two shades in limited sizes -- but on sale.

The gray and the pink (J Crew):

I really like these too. I'm ordering a pair. I already have some from Talbots that I like and wear for casual work days (no clients) ... but these EB pants look exactly like something I would wear on weekends.
