Hi,
I am looking for some slim fitting 100% wool dress pants/slacks for work. I went to the Hugo Boss factory store and found a 31R Dr. Hook model, but it seems a little overpriced at like $150 plus 30% off. These are unhemmed but the fit and the feel are nice. I need them for everyday work use, a couple of different colors (as my current dress pants are too big and wide (like a tent).

Does anyone know when Hugo Boss factory outlet stores might be having a sale soon?
What are some alternatives for 100% wool dress pants that are a nice slimmer fit?

Thanks!

That's pretty expensive for Boss pants imo. If you know your measurements, take a look under the B&S thread for Incotex wool pants, offered by a number of sellers. Or at least they were -- I'm not sure there's much left in your size after this recent frenzy, but if you can find them, they are a much better value than Boss.

I generally spend between $100-$120 for hugo boss pants (not discounted), and they hold up very well. I generally go to work with a dress shirt and boss wool pants - much like a school uniform

I've been seeing that brand name being tossed around here, but when I google it, they're asking $300 some odd. That's pretty crazy. I'd pay up to $90 for high quality fitted wool slacks.
