Shockoe Atelier Field Trouser cuts its military chino from Japanese cotton twill in Richmond. Bills Khakis keeps American-made khakis with a Navy pedigree. A trouser either works at the knee or never does, so sit in it before judging the fit. American cloth breaks in on the body: cuff once and walk the block before deciding.

Faherty is a clothing brand founded by twin brothers Mike and Alex Faherty, whose beach upbringing informs its casual style. The range includes shirts and knitwear alongside trousers and dresses, with accessories available for women and men. Its website also describes collaborations with Native designers, which should be distinguished from the wider clothing collection.
Best for Casual clothing and beach-influenced everyday layers
Faherty is a family-owned clothing brand established in 2013. Its official story presents the business through casual clothing for adults and children, supported by swim and accessories plus a home-goods line. Several programmes give the assortment a wider structure. Native Designed identifies collaborations with Native artists, while Second Wave Resale keeps existing Faherty pieces in circulation. The company also maintains partnership and sustainability alongside social-impact sections that sit beside its product catalogue. Clothing is organized around recurring wardrobe categories such as shirts and knitwear as well as trousers. Dresses and outerwear complete the wardrobe. Named groups including the Western Collection, Rugged Ivy Collection and Reserve Collection provide a more specific design direction within that everyday framework. Stretch Terry and movement-oriented shirts emphasize comfort and repeated wear rather than formal novelty. These facts make the brand's position legible: it builds a broad casual wardrobe, then uses partnerships and resale to add authorship and a second life to selected pieces. The family ownership and 2013 starting point provide the business context, while the named collections and programmes show how Faherty differentiates its clothing from a generic multi-category apparel offer.

Reading, Pennsylvania khakis since 1990—American-made twill trousers cut and sewn stateside with Amish craftsmanship and heritage construction standards.
Best for American-made khakis, Navy
Bills Khakis was founded in 1990 in Reading, Pennsylvania by Bill Thomas, who began by selling 250 pairs of khakis from his car, driven by conviction that quality American-made khakis had become nearly impossible to find. The company remains headquartered in Reading and manufactures every product domestically, with denim specifically crafted in Los Angeles and assembly operations in facilities including Amish-run workshops. The brand's philosophy anchors on uncompromised standards in materials and construction, offering multiple fits (Relaxed, Classic, Straight) across lines such as Original Twill, Vintage Twill, and Island Twill, with both pleated and flat-front options. The label has earned industry recognition for its authenticity: Men's Journal named their offering the "Best Authentic Twill Khaki Pants," while GQ recognized the pleated version as the best in category. Bills Khakis stands apart in contemporary menswear through its commitment to domestic manufacturing as a core business principle rather than a marketing claim, grounding the product in American craft and supply-chain transparency.
On Ramona Avenue in Chino, Canabru pulls espresso from a Brazil-Guatemala-Ethiopia blend roasted for it by 11th Hour Coffee and brews loose-leaf tea to order, alongside daily-made fudge, Nutella-filled cookies, and its own branded merchandise and gear.
Best for It by 11th Hour Coffee and brews loose-leaf tea to order
Canabru Coffee runs out of a Ramona Avenue storefront in Chino, pulling espresso from a blend that 11th Hour Coffee roasts for the shop from Brazilian, Guatemalan and Ethiopian beans processed both naturally and washed. Alongside the espresso bar, the counter brews loose-leaf tea to order, with customers able to mix leaves to build a custom cup rather than choosing from a fixed list of bagged blends. The kitchen turns out homemade fudge and chocolate chip cookies daily, including a version filled with Nutella, alongside the standard drip and espresso menu. Beyond the counter, Canabru sells its own branded merchandise -- shirts, mugs and hats -- plus home brewing equipment for customers who want to replicate the pour at home. It's a small-format neighborhood cafe built around a single sourced coffee blend and made-to-order tea rather than a large rotating menu, with the daily baking as the draw that brings regulars back beyond their morning order.
Started in 2022 by two brothers from healthcare backgrounds, Coffee Up Roastery serves 100% electric-roasted, sustainably sourced coffee and Ippodo Tea matcha at its Fullerton and Chino, California cafes, both ordering through Clover.
Best for Zero-emission, 100% electric-roasted coffee and Ippodo Tea matcha from a Chino-Fullerton micro-roastery
Coffee Up Roastery began in 2022, started by two brothers who came out of the healthcare industry as home coffee enthusiasts before turning the hobby into a business. The roastery runs two Southern California cafes, in Fullerton and in Chino on Philadelphia Street, both serving the same roasted output rather than operating as separate brands. What sets the roasting itself apart is the method: beans are sourced sustainably and organically, then roasted entirely on electric equipment rather than gas, a choice the company markets as zero-emission roasting. Alongside the coffee program, the shops have added Ippodo Tea matcha to the in-store lineup, extending the menu beyond espresso and drip into Japanese green tea for customers who want an alternative to coffee without leaving the specialty-beverage register. Both locations run online ordering through Clover for pickup, and the Chino cafe keeps longer weekday hours than its Fullerton counterpart, catering to an after-work crowd. It reads as a small operation that has kept its roasting process -- electric equipment, an emphasis on sourcing, two linked storefronts -- as tightly controlled as its menu is focused.

Levi Strauss & Co. brand launched in 1986, named after the British term for dockworkers; credited with popularizing khaki trousers as business-casual wear and with helping establish 'Casual Friday' in American offices during the 1990s.
Best for Khakis, Smart Casual
Dockers was introduced by Levi Strauss & Co. in 1986, built around khaki trousers positioned as a step between formal suiting and casual jeans. The name traces back further: in 1982 Levi Strauss & Co.'s Argentina division created a line of nautically inspired fashion jeans it called 'Dockers,' borrowing the British term for longshoremen. Under Bob Siegel's leadership, the brand became closely associated with the rise of business-casual dressing in American workplaces during the 1990s and is widely credited with helping drive the adoption of 'Casual Friday.' Dockers added a women's line in 1987 and expanded into Europe in 1993.
