I ride my bike at work during the day to get lunch. It’s just over 3 miles round trip.
Curious if anyone has a recommendation for pants that would double as office appropriate and comfortable on a bike.
Bonus points if they are under $100. These days it seems like $100 is the new $20.

They don’t fit your price preferences but I’m a huge fan of Ornot’s Mission Pants. I wear them every day, on and off the bike. Maybe you could splurge on a pair ($148) and see if you like them.
If you have access to Costco, their Orvis hiking pants can do both.
Im a big fan of Kuhl hiking pants. I don’t bike with them but maybe they’d be good for what you need.
I’ve been wondering about this myself.. It’s hard to find something that doesn’t make it look like I have stage 4 terminal swampa$$
I like the Prana stretch Zion slim fit.
“Take me home…”
How long and intense of a bike ride? What kinda weather are we talking?
I’ve done some rides with my kids in Duluth Ballroom Khakis, and I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable they were on the bike.
[Levis 511 tapered leg](https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/jeans-by-fit-number/men/jeans/511/511-slim-fit-mens-jeans/p/045111042) with stretch have treated me well in the past… you can even choose HIGH stretch now, which I have not tried. Don’t even need to cuff the drive side leg. Less that $50 right now.
The wrangler ATG hiking pants from Walmart are office/trail friendly, readily available, and cost $25.
Maybe these?!

Target All In Motion golf pants. Work appropriate and sweat-wicking. Quality much better than their price point.
