Brooks Brothers Regent vs. Madison Gabardine Trousers

There's been some threads in the past touching on these. Have also heard rumors the Madison's have been trimmed up and Regents are phased out.

However, Regents are still on the Brooks web site, albeit, I can never find them available in a 32 or 33 waist. It's like they only make a few Regents and restock them once a year. In contrast, the Madison's are always available.

What's the story on the Regents. Why are they so hard to find? Have the current Madison's really been trimmed up?

What's the best choice for a workplace environment? Are the Regents too trim? Are the Regent's too low rise to go well with a blazer or sport coat? Is the Madison a better all around choice for workplace?

Not sure about their pricing strategy. Interesting feedback on the taper below the knee. Question: if one wears a blucher (like an Alden 990) would the Madison's be a better choice? As an Alden blucher is a bit of a larger shoe due to the double sole, I wonder if the narrower taper of the Regent below the knee might make the way the trousers break on a blucher look a little awkward. Maybe the Madisons would break better? The frustrating thing is I have a tough time finding Regents in Brooks brick and mortar stores or even online to compare. It's almost like no Brooks store in the US even stocks the Regents.

Does Brooks even make a Fitzgerald gabardine trouser? I thought the only options were Madison or Regent?

Thanks. When did they modify the fit of each cut? Is this fairly recent?
