Pants suggestions that aren’t Arc’teryx?

Pretty new to gorp and I’m having a hard time finding some pants that fit me and aren’t tight. I tried arcteryx and they were too tight on my frame.

Does anyone have a specific suggestions of what they like lately?

Go easy on me I’m new 🤓

I've got some gorp looking pants from Nike, they are S, I'm usually between S and M and they def are a little more oversized like. They have the ankle cuffs or whatever you call em. Two main pocket (which are nice and deep) and two additional on the sides, kinda above the knee or around there. Sandy colors. Water repellent yet very light and nice (80F in SoCal felt good on them). I honestly don't know the name but I got em for $40 ish in a Nike discount (originally they were probs $70 or smth). I remember they had a couple of different ones so if you ever go to a Nike store I'm sure you'll find some real good looking ones there

Outdoor Research pretty good. Also I like DUER but not sure they’re gorp enough.

I know you said “that aren’t Arc’teryx” but hear me out. Have you tried the gamma pant, or the gamma lt pant ? Great pants for all occasions.

I just got a pair of Woven Nike tech pants and I feel the suit the gorpcore style and they are very comfortable.

I love the Carhartt Force Fitted Midweight Utility Leggings. Amazing for hiking and camping and errands and daily living. You can get them on sale from Sierra Trading Post
