I've read threads on here before about work wear and Englebert-Strauss got good reviews, so I bought a pair a month ago. Very impressed.
They've got pockets in the right places. Good zip pockets for cash, open pockets for keys,wallet and phone.
You can get different materials as mentioned already. I went for the stretch soft-shell which are really comfortable. Highly recommended.
I've tried all kinds of stuff over the years. Hiking,mountaineering gear was best so far, but it costs a bit for decent gear like north face summit series or Haglöfs which are quality.
But Englebert-Strauss seem well thought out, reasonably priced work wear.
