With so many fashion clothing brands out there, finding the best chenille jogger pants for men who want to show off a little fashion awareness will be tough without some guidance.
Men of all ages are becoming more and more comfortable with making fashion a vital part of the choices they make when purchasing items for work and in everyday life.
Men’s fashion is a booming business driven by the growing popularity of business casual work environments.
Men’s Fashion Enters the Workplace
Back in the day, professional men wore either a blue or grey suit to work. The choice was that simple. At home, they picked the most comfortable item out of the closet and wore it until the seems pulled apart.
As the size of companies grew, and middle management exploded into a labyrinth of cubicles, the demand for inexpensive, off-the-shelf business attire made way for places like Mens’ Warehouse and buy one, get one free deal at department stores.
Today, companies encourage their employees to express their personalities through style. Consequently, how you dress at work can affect your success at the office. This has had a significant impact on men’s fashion.
Because a casual, yet fashionable, work environment has made guys much more aware of trends, that awareness has carried over into all aspects of their wardrobe.
If you are looking to upgrade your casual work attire, or want to appear more in-tune with famous fashion brands, consider adding chenille items to your everyday wardrobe.
What is Chenille?
Chenille is French for a caterpillar.
Initially, chenille yarn had a fizzy, tufted appearance that resembled the fur of a caterpillar.
Those familiar with the historical origins of fabric believe that chenille is a comparatively recent invention. It dates back to 18th century France.
Textile historians say that the original technique of producing chenille involved weaving a light, airy fabric known as Leno. Then, the Leno was cut into strips that created the tufted yarn.
Chenille was widely used in home decors such as pillows, drapes, bedspreads, and carpet.
It wasn’t until the 1970s with advances in commercial fabric production that chenille becomes commonly used by fashion designers and clothing manufacturers. It was somewhat the disco of fabrics and faded in popularity in much the same way.
Much like disco, it was too shiny and fussy.
Along with the retro-chic trends of the 1990’s, chenille made a respectable return at that time. Any nineties kid will recall the shimmery, velvety sweaters they wore during the cold months.
However, the fabric went into hibernation until recently.
Two Robots from France Win a Grammy
After its popularity in the 1990’s, chenille went into hibernation once again.
Today, Chenille is back, and in a big way.
Fashion designers are taking a second look at the jogger pant. You could argue that two robots from France are tangentially responsible.
Daft Punk, the French techno-music duo who performed as robots from outer space, won Album of the Year at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards. The album, Random Access Memories, is easily categorized as a pure disco album straight from the 1970s.
So, it was inevitable that the fabric that went hand in hand with the Electric Slid and the Hustle would make a comeback as well.
And it did.
During the autumn and winter of 2017 and 2018, Ferragamo, Jason Wu, Peter Pilotto and Rosetta Getty all featured collections that were created with chenille.
Chenille is back in business.

Max Mara Haute Couture
After Achille Maramotti graduated law school in 1951, he made a choice to dedicate his life to haute couture. It wasn’t a completely random decision. His great-grandmother was Marina Rinaldi. Rinaldi operated a fashion house in the late nineteenth century.
However, Achille’s vision to produce high-quality, manufactured women’s clothing in Italy was somewhat out of character for the region. Fashion in Italy was, for the most part, an exclusively hand-crafted industry.
Since that time, Max Mara has spawned thirty-five brands including Weekend, Sportman, Max & Co, and Marella.
Chenille Trousers from Max Mara
These chenille jogging bottoms from Max Mara are simple, clean, and stylish. They are made of a cotton chenille jersey. They have slant side pockets and an elasticated waistband. The waistband has a drawstring.
These jogging bottoms come in tobacco or wine and are available at Max Mara for $$.

The Chenille Story Continues
The great thing about chenille is how the texture and sheen feed the attitude. It’s truly reminiscent of the disco era.
Not only has chenille resurfaced as a popular fabric with designers, but it is also being used to make a wide range of styles.
Although we have focused on joggers and track pants, chenille sweaters and jackets are showing up in trendy locations as well.
The reasons are clear.
Chenille is a highly versatile fabric that is soft to the touch and very durable
