Made to measure chinos
I'm planning on buying new chinos on a "made-to-measure" website. I have a pair of chinos I use for reference, which I've measured. All measurements are in centimeters. And I'm a tall dude, 200cm/6'7.
The pants posted are on the slimmer side, which I prefer. I'm not too sure about the butt part. And the back of the knees looks a little wrapped up maybe? What measurements would you guys change? Will appreciate any help!

I know you prefer a slimmer cut, but these look actually too small for you
The pockets flaring while standing, and the seat looks really tight
I see, thanks for the feedback! If I were to order another chinos, what parts should I be making larger? Like a little bit ofeverything?
Guessing at the measurements like that is a good way to waste MTM money on pants that won't fit you well
Your pants size looks to be roughly 36x33 - 36/34 which is not hard to find off-the-rack. Why are you buying MTM?
If I were you I'd try on a few pairs of less tight pants off the rack til you find something that fits you. These look extremely tight, slim, and uncomfortable. I know you say you prefer slimmer cuts but I'd really encourage you to try something in more of a straight cut, the slim chino look that you posted is quite off trend
I want a pair of light grey chinos, and it's been impossible to find a fitting pair at a regular store :/. So few store around here that even have something resembling gray chinos. But thank you for your feedback! I will consider a looser fit.
Surely you could try on other colors of chinos for the fit (either a specific model or write down their measurements) then order a pair in light gray once you find something you like?
I mean if you're ordering MTM online, you can also order RTW online?
just compare measurements

I’d suggest luxire - they have a less expensive test fabric that makes the guessing game less painful. Odds are you’ll have to do two pairs
