Hi, I'm new to the real men's dress world and this is my first post here. I recently bought this 2 pairs of wool pants from Bonobos.
https://bonobos.com/products/americano-wool-dress-pants?color=navy speckled tweed
https://bonobos.com/products/americano-wool-dress-pants?color=textured grey

The fits are alright, and the fabric are from Moon and Tollegno. But I'm not sure if these texture/speckle are appropriate for business casual. Do you guys think they are too fashion-forward or they are just the classic models that are rarely seen. Should I stick to the pairs of BB plain flannels I already own?
Forgive my language.:embar:
Thanks!

I think they are fine. Not my first choice in fabric but they will work for business casual. No need to stress.

Those have absolutely no place in 'Business Casual'.

They are 'party'/night club fodder.

Business casual does not mean any old fashion forward garment, merely a relaxed form of normal business wear.
