Like so many other timeless pieces in the menswear canon, khakis are deeply rooted in military origins, with strong ties to the US Army in World War II, then crossing over to the civilian world as a preppy staple of the 1950s. But khakis had already been around long before the ‘50s. The story of khakis begins a century earlier in 1845, in India. There are two versions of this story. Some point to the British soldiers who discolored their white uniforms with local dust, mud, coffee – sometimes even curry – in an attempt to better blend into their surroundings. In fact, “khaki” is the Urdu word for dust-colored, which is derived from the Persian “khak”, meaning dust. Some historians specifically credit British commander Sir Harry Lumsden, who coped with the relentless heat in Punjab by replacing his standard-issue military trousers with pajama pants which he dyed with tea leaves (probably so that it wouldn't so obvious that he was wearing pajamas to war), only to realize later that he had also effectively camouflaged them. Either way, by 1848, the British armed forces officially embraced the advantage of khaki uniforms not only in India, but for other campaigns through the late 1800's in South Africa, Sudan, and Afghanistan.
