Bonobos is a men's clothing label built around chinos cut with a curved waistband and tapered leg, sold alongside oxford and knit shirts, denim, performance polos, tailoring and swim. It operates online plus roughly 50 appointment-based Guideshops that stock fit samples rather than inventory, with wide waist and inseam options. Walmart owned the brand from 2017 until 2023, when WHP Global bought the trademark and Express took over operations; after Express filed Chapter 11, Bonobos was acquired in June 2024 by Phoenix Retail, a consortium of WHP Global, Simon Property Group, Brookfield Properties and Centennial.

How Bonobos fits
| Category | Runs | Shape | Length | Size advice | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hoodies & sweatshirts | true to size | regular, neither cropped-boxy nor athletic-slim | regular | Take your normal size; size up only if you want a loose, oversized drape. | low |
| Shirts & overshirts | slightly large | Slim is trim but not compressive; Tailored sits between; Standard reads boxy and full through the chest and waist | bodies are frequently described as long, which suits tucking more than wearing untucked | Most men land best in Slim or Tailored at their usual size, and shorter guys often prefer the short-length option to avoid excess body length. | high |
| Trousers & pants | true to size | curved waistband with a clean seat; Slim and Tailored are trim, Athletic adds seat and thigh room, Straight is genuinely relaxed | strong inseam coverage means most people can order finished length rather than hem | Take your measured waist and choose Athletic if Slim binds in the thigh — the waistband tends to sit true without gapping. | high |
| Jeans & denim | true to size | same fit-block system as the chinos, with a comfortable seat and moderate taper | multiple inseams available, so finished lengths generally run accurate | Order your normal jeans waist; stretch content means they relax slightly with wear. | medium |
| Jackets | true to size | modern trim tailoring in blazers and sport coats; casual outerwear is closer to regular | contemporary shorter jacket length on tailoring | Stay with your usual jacket size, but go up if you plan to layer a sweater under a slim blazer. | medium |
| T-shirts & graphic tees | slightly large | regular to slightly relaxed through the body rather than fitted | on the longer side for the size | If you want a cleaner modern silhouette, consider sizing down one from your usual tee size. | medium |
