recommendations for chinos/dress pants

Currently have a bunch of holes in my old pairs of BR dress pants. So I currently have one pair of commission pants from lululemon and think the material is a bit too athletic? I was thinking of buying a pair of chino 2.0 and weekday warrior pants from bonobos but I’ve heard a lot of people say their product has gone downhill in material. Any recommendations or should I just go for bonobos?

I personally like Asket's chinos but a bit more than bonobos

Those look nice but a little bit out of budget :Hmm: Do you think jcrew would be a better choice over bonobos?

Yes Try j. Crew giant fit chinos. Are you open to secondhand?

Uniqlo has some wide chinos too now, I think.

I really hate Uniqlo wide fit pants for the most part idk The drape is bad on most of them also we have this thread from the other day https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1232838627864612924

I’ve tried like… 8 pairs of wide fit chinos/corduroys/“dress” pants from them in the last 4 years I’ve kept none of them

Are the other slim choices or alternatives as good as those? I’m located US-west, $100~ budget, slim build 5’8/5’9

The classic fit in dusty wine looks so good though How do people feel about BR's Rapid Movement Chinos on sale

I think MFA generally doesn't like stretchy cotton/spandex fabrics

Unfortunately prl on eBay doesn’t have my size or color I’m looking for

I find that a little hard to believe but sure. This is why more specificity is more better. Can you provide us with a more complete idea of the pant you are trying to buy
