Very specific jeans brand recs
Hi, I had great luck when I asked for recommendations here on a brand for chinos (Jack Donnelly was the winner) so I am going to take another shot here.
I'm looking for a what I hope is a not-very-exciting pair of light wash jeans:
- looking for light indigo wash
- important to have a regular/straight or sightly relaxed leg, as I am trying to get the skinny jean out of my life. (i am pretty skinny myself so a regular fit looks kinda baggy)
- quality+ethics def matter, I generally look for MiUSA/Japan/Europe as a first pass on that
- ideally very little ornamentation/distressing/etc
- hoping to spend <$150, which hopefully isn't unrealistic given the quality stipulation
This kind of wash is generally what i'm going for: https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/shopping?q=tbn:ANd9GcTWbmTvGMpkwQdeNEZzOcQHLQxq6nbrouEYPK2zGrN2dASjEsrbaYpHTBAjIdkaEgSNk6pxTlQpRWrY6p31SqW-oHhEszdrl1Ie560BRUetmfmOgHfbacv-2TAm
Thank you!!!

Pants brand recs
I am emerging from skinny jeans hibernation and am rebuilding my pants drawer. I'm trying to go slow and mostly stick with regular fit for now, not truly wide leg. I'm looking for a good brand to check out.
I've had great luck with the base corduroys and cavalry pants from Noah (esp those cavalry pants: they're not too wide, relatively staid style-wise if you buy in neutral colors and not the current-season lime, quality is really good, prices are awesome on sale, made in Portugal). But they're pretty pricey when not on sale.
Does anyone else have recs for high-quality, reasonably priced, made-in-europe or USA pants and/or with higher sustainability/transparency? I've tried Rag and Bone and Todd Snyder but feel like both of those tend to be a little off in terms of quality/fit. I'm ideally looking to spend <$150 so it might be a tall order.
