Dress Pants - Athletic Fabric?

What work pants are you guys wearing that are similar to Lululemon ABC/commission but more formal (less sheen) and office appropriate?

Ex. no lines or seams at the knee. or something that screams golf pants.  

There's a ton of brands out there now in this category - curious on thoughts/feedback. Peter Millar? Rhone? Bonobos? Twillory? Proper Cloth?

Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some recommendations for dress pants that are similar to Lululemon ABC/commission but more formal and office-appropriate:

  1. Bonobos: Known for their comfortable and stylish dress pants, Bonobos offers a range of options that are suitable for the office without the sheen or golf pant look.

  2. Suit Supply: They provide high-quality pants that often only need minor tailoring. Their pants come with side adjusters, which can be very convenient.

  3. Ermenegildo Zegna: Their stretch chinos are highly recommended for comfort and fit, especially for those with an athletic build.

  4. Incotex: Offers great pants, but it's advisable to avoid the extra slim fits if you want more comfort and a formal look.

  5. Jos. A. Bank: Their Travelers fit pants are a good option for those looking for comfort and a more traditional look.

These brands have been highlighted in various WSO threads for their quality and suitability for a professional environment.
