after many years I have found the perfect pants. I too have hockey butt, huge thighs and legs, which makes finding and fitting pants a Tough thing. For suits I am better off getting custom made, for regular pants I usually have to go up a size or two in slim fit to find the optimal fit. I wear these on the weekends http://www.kuhl.com/kuhl/mens/pants/
Dress pants without wearing a suit look dorky and I refuse to wear them anymore.
I also got into raw denim a few years ago. I found these after trying APC and AG's, which blew out fast and looked bad after a short time. I found RRL by Ralph Lauren, made of Japanese denim. I buy the raw and black pair, and have three pair now, that I wear to work usually with dress shoes and tucked or untucked dress shirt. My first pair are two years old, have worn them 300+, hand washed maybe 10x in my bath tub, and the fade is awesome. The crotch blew out about a month ago, and the RRL store fixed it for free! Now these arent cheap($225), but a few things; they will last you 5+ years easy, probably more if you hand wash occasionally. They are made from the best denim, look the best, imho the best jeans made. Have three pair for work and dont plan on buying another pair for years. If you are looking for a nice pair to go out in, esp the black ones, these are it.

Im not a huge fan of rrls personally and Ill expand on that below. But to clarify, most raw denim brands use Japanese Denim this isnt particular to Ralph Lauren, in fact RRL made the switch back to American cone denim last year, you will notice a downgrade in their denim from years past, far lighter, and just inferior, stock of the old Japanese denims is dwindling so expect rrl durablity to take a hit over the next couple years.
