thoughts on these trousers?

[Gordon Freeman]

I need at least 3 more trousers but my budget doesn't allow me to
purchase Zanella, Incotex or Zegna.
Champagne taste on a beer budget, I know.
So what do you think of these?

I was also considering one of these:

But i have to admit, I don't know much about trousers

Thanks, G.

I would hold off on these pants. For $50, you should be able to do better at an after Christmas sale where you can actually touch the fabric, try the fit, etc. You might also get some RL or Brooks pants on Ebay. And don't forget such basics as STP and Land's End.

How about these?
They are cuffed already and I would need a longer inseam.

Pleated pants will look better with cuffs, but it's not an absolute rule. These pants are probably a higher quality than your previous picks.

Some other decent brands on Ebay in your price range might be Corbin, Jos A Banks, and Barry Bricken.

Thanks Gentlemen,

All of them look pretty nice to me. H-F make really nice pants, Canali I don't have much experience with but has a good rep here, and HSM is pretty decent too.

It seems your tastes lean towards the classic. If this is true, I would also look at Oxxford slacks on ebay. Since it appears you don't mind buying pre-owned clothing, you can get some real great deals on Oxxford trousers in good condition. Oxxford, arguably, makes some of the best slacks in the world. These might end up selling for a bit out of your range, but if you keep your eyes open you can often score some excellent deals: http://cgi.ebay.com/Oxxford-Charcoal...em290065804196

True.
I can't believe I didn't see that.
I search for oxxford (fat fingers) every day.
I hope they don't end up costing $300 like I saw them in a store.
Thanks for the link.
