PennBilt: American Chinos Reimagined
PennBilt was founded with one clear purpose: to bring back the authentic Ivy chino. Designed in the U.S. and crafted with modern precision, PennBilt trousers are rooted in military and collegiate tradition but refined for today’s gentleman.
Every pair is built with thoughtful proportions, durable fabrics, and clean finishing — trousers that look just as natural with Hamilton OCBDs as with Ralph Lauren polos or Barbour jackets. For Claymore clients, PennBilt delivers what so many brands lost: the perfect Ivy chino, cut and finished with care.
At Claymore Shop, we carry PennBilt because they anchor wardrobes. They’re the everyday Ivy trousers: versatile, understated, and refined enough to pair with anything in the store.
The Ivy Trouser, Done Right
Claymore clients know the difference between a good chino and a great one. They care about rise, pocket shape, taper, and how a pair of trousers drapes over a loafer. PennBilt gets all of it right.
Why our clients choose PennBilt:
- They want authentic Ivy chinos: clean rise, straight leg, proper taper.
- They appreciate durable fabrics that age well with wear and washing.
- They need trousers that pair seamlessly with tailoring, knitwear, or polos.
- They like pieces that feel casual yet intentional and never sloppy.
- They value American heritage reinterpreted for modern Ivy dressing.
For Claymore men, PennBilt is the foundation of a refined Ivy wardrobe.
