  • GARDEUR:
    A traditional German company. It was Germany's first pants brand in 1969.
    Delivery is only to Germany and the Netherlands.
    According to wikipedia “the only pants supplier in the industry that combines all development steps in the company - from the design to the finished pair of pants”.

    Good quality, wearable for years, price-performance ratio okay.

    There are many local retailers in Germany and the Netherlands. Ideally, try them on for the first time on site, as the cut is very close to the figure. But then the right size really does fit perfectly.

  • I know polish brands Agrest, very good climbing trousers. We (I'm involved in production) made it in Krakow in small manufacture. As climbing clothes they HAVE TO be comfortable and abrasion resistant.

    It sounds like advertise, but I trully recomend it.

    There is also brand Pakker but I don't know much about them.

  • People are recommending good European brands --- which you should definitely check out! --- but I'd like to also recommend buying second-hand.

    It's cheaper, better for the environment, and you don't have to worry about supporting American companies; Even if you buy from an American brand (Wrangler, Levi's...), the money is going straight to a fellow European citizen and to whatever platform/website you buy it from, so you just have to make sure to use a European platform such as Vinted.

    It might not be as convenient as buying straight from the brand, but it is better.

    • Can confirm. Of course you can't really expect to always find the thing you are looking for, especially if you need a certain size. But I got lucky and found nice quality jeans on a very good deal for 9€.
