What brand/model of pants can you recommend?

I really love Duluth Trading Company pants, especially the ones with their flex firehose material. I wear them almost every day and think they are great.

I haven't tried their pants, but I've been impressed with their jackets, coats, and shirts.

Carhartt

Unfortunately these are trendy in certain circles now, so the prices are rising. Good pants though.

Easy answer OP: none.

Don’t wear pants, let your legs breathe freely.

Docker's, Carhartt and Dickies pants (not jeans) have all held up to my factory job.

Dickies really are underrated. I've worn them for years doing landscaping full time in the Midwest. I think I had a pair that lasted six years.

Are Levi's available in Europe? Honestly the best jeans I've ever had... I cycle with them almost daily and they're still going strong.

I am confused. I thought the OP was asking about pants, as in underpants and people are suggesting jeans. Is this just a misunderstanding or are there actually jeans underpants ?
- Dialect difference. Brit pants = US underwear. US pants = Brit trousers.
Yes. But I did happen to stumble across its Denizen line about a year ago when I was in the US and in a Target. I really liked them, so upon another visit this summer I bought three additional (identical) ones, as I've not seen them here in europe.

I am the least fashionable person in existence, and I 100% prefer function over form. And the Denizen is by far the most comfortable jeans I've ever owned.
Definitely a fan of Levi’s, especially the high-waisted models. I intensely dislike the feeling of my pants being about to fall off, so low-waisted is out. The 516 is my favourite, although I also have 541s, 501s, 505s, and 550s.
- From my experience, Levi's are some of the worst jeans I've ever had. They all wear out in 2 years time for me. I tend to get a tear in the crotch area and in the knees. Wrangler jeans seem to do better.
  
  Here's a jean testing video that tests 12 jeans in Breathability, Rear Pocket Failure, Hammer Loop Failure, Crotch Tear, Puncture Resistance, Abrasion Resistance, and Pocket Puncture Resistance.
- The ones I have are 531's. I wish I could afford another pair rn, oh well.

Look for raw denim! The real stuff- it'll feel thicker at first and will take breaking in. You'll be paying 100+ most likely, but they'll last you a lifetime. Brands are really dependent on the style/cut of jeans you're looking for. Not up to date on brands anymore since I haven't had to buy a new pair in over ten years. My favorite brand was/is Rogue Territory, but I'm not sure if they are available in the EU.

Man I don't know if it's just me, I've owned 3 pairs of raw denim jeans and I blew out all 3 within a year.
- It kind of comes down to the overall craftsmanship of the jeans. I started paying more attention to the seams, stitching, and where things lined up on my body. I had good luck purchasing from smaller brands which appeared to value the 'legacy' of denim- not something I really think about, but I was happy they did.
For pure longevity I'd recommend Iron Hearts. I've had the same pair of 634S for about two years, worn 2-4x per week in construction

I can't give you European recommendations, but as someone who has had pant challenges, I can make those. Consider evaluating why they are failing. Are the rips and tears in the fabric panels? You may be able to find pants that are reinforced in those areas or are of a more durable fabric. You could also consider repair. If the rips and tears are at seams, maybe you need extra stitching. This can also be repaired but isn't always cost effective. Also consider fit - if they don't for appropriately, this also can lead to increased wear.

Good luck! Sorry if I come off as a lecture and you know all these things.

My husband has been slowly replacing stuff with Myles Apparel. He’s a weightlifter, so finding clothes that fit his quads (and allows him to still, you know, move) is a tall order. No ripping, tearing, funky workout stink, or any other issues so far! Also looks like they can ship internationally.

I've had pretty good luck with fjallraven. They mostly make trekking/hiking apparel, but they do have some styles that make for good casualwear.

Is 5.11 available in Europe? It’s practically all I wear now. I’ve only had one pair go bad in 7 years.

I really like Volcom shorts and pants. They tend to fit me a lot better (and with much greater consistency) than any other brand, even expensive ones. They're pretty durable too. Nice that they're not crazy expensive, but I also buy them from discount stores in the US for great prices. I never buy clothes at full price.

You could probably find Volcom clothes at skate shops in Europe. I have seen them on European online skateshops and stuff, if I'm remembering correctly.

if youre looking for quick-dry pants, try Truewerk

JNCO jeans never let me down.

IDK if these are available directly there but they do ship.

Nudie Jeans

If you’re looking for some fair trade and organic stuff: I’m wearing torland for a few years now. I used to buy new jeans every year because they didn’t last so long (even branded ones). But the ones from torland didn’t disappoint me yet. Still got my first pair from 3-4 years

Get some raw denim pants and have them tailored.

Anything from L.L. Bean.

Levi's, but not the ones you buy at box stores like Walmart and Target. They make special shitty ones for those stores that don't last a year. Get them from Macy's, or the Levi's website. I have 20 year old Levi's that I still wear. I also have newer Levi's, so I can say that you can still get the good ones. They need to have the model number on them, not a description. If it says something like "low rise, casual fit" or any other cut description instead of a number, don't buy it. Those are the junk ones.

Eddie Bauer makes a pretty good pant. I liked my last pair so much that I wore them like 3-4 days per week for 3 years before the pocket started fraying. Not bad for a $15 pair of pants from Costco.

Kühl makes good pants, but they're expensive. You can find them at REI.

Had some Diesel ones and my current favorite jeans are from Scotch&Soda and from PME Legend

I'm not sure about how it works in Europe, but in the U.S., military surplus clothing is an excellent budget friendly, durable option. I will say that the stitching can sometimes be spotty, but if you know how to sew, you can get a pair of pants that can stand toe to toe with brands like Carhartt and Dickies for 20-30 dollars less.

Next, Uniqlo, and Huelwear. Decent prices and quality (huelwear is a good price on sale)

Not the pants from Moore's.

I've been wearing Lucky jeans. They hold up pretty well.

I am above average in inseam length and on the akinny side. Buckle jeans generally fit me pretty well and have been pretty durable

If you don't mind the weird styling, Wrangler's 13MWZ jeans are bullet proof
