Hello Gents!
I am looking to purchase some new odd trousers (Shades of Grey, POW, etc). However, I would like to limit the budget to under 75 a pair and strive for a slim silhouette. Brand suggestions? I am in NYC.

Many thanks,
BC

Since you are in NYC

Go to Daffys (~Times Square/Midtown)
Buy Mabitex. ($30 for Cotton, $50 for Wool)
Repeat

+1, just visit a few. I was in NYC a few months ago when everyone had bought them. I still found a bunch.

Still, they're an exceptional value and OP would do well to buy a pair of Epaulet trousers.

Costco now sells flatfront men's trousers under their Kirkland label. You could give that a try. The legs might not be narrow enough for you though, but compared to my default, I find them relatively slim cut.

J Crew, H&M, BR, and Zara are some good options for cheap pairs. However you can find some much higher quality Mabitex on the B&S. OR you can save up and buy a pair of Panta pants that are also available on the B&S.
