Levi's new xx Chino is my current favorite, I bought half a dozen pairs, then Amazon raised the price $30.00 overnight they must be popular I can see why they fit great and are made well.
I agree I've had it with jeans, they're overpriced and over rated and mainly styled for younger men. It's hard work to find one's that fit well and when you do they have fadng, they don't work with good quality footwear or a sports jacket. They were originally made for miners and folks involved in hard labour. You keep them for a couple of years and they lose their original colour. I also think side pockets are easier to access.
