LOL -- I was thinking the same thing. "Khaki" is a color; chinos are an article of clothing, which may come in khaki or in some other color. But yes, "khakis" seems to be accepted for khaki chinos. I laugh when I hear someone refer to "navy khakis," though. I mean, its not the sartorial equivalent of "Coke" -- acceptable regardless of whether one is actually referring to Co'Cola.

Maybe it's both regional and {shudder} age related.
