Advice on Dress Pants

Hi everyone! I started my first job out of college about 2 years ago and at that time I went to Yonkers and Kohls to purchase dress clothes. Since then I've upgraded all of my shirts to Brooks Brothers and now my dress pants need to be upgraded. I currently have a mix of Izod, Haggar and Calvin Klein. I live in a smaller city so most of my looking has been online and I've come up with Bonobos, J Crew, Banana Republic, Brooks Brothers and I do have a local Men's Wearhouse. The main thing I see is the brands are rather expensive, even when they're on sale. Do you have any recommendations of other brands or would one of theses be worth my money? I'm 5'10" 165 lbs so something slim would probably be best. Any help would be much appreciated!

Land's End has some good stuff in slim cuts. Uniqlo too, but the rise is often low.

What about Enro? I ordered some from Bonobos and they’re skin tight. I can get some tailored Enro’s from my local men’s store for $52 a pair after their 20% discount.

Any of the popular labels geared towards younger people are going to be slimmer.

I generally size up one size because im thin...but have larger thighs/ass due to cycling & cycling.
You're going to have to try different brands to see what fits best for you...we are all going to be different.
