Most formal men's dress pants are made of woven wool or woolen blends. Gray flannel trousers are a long-standing classic, and with good reason -- the color goes well with almost everything and the fabric is comfortable and durable, cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Navy blue is nearly as common as gray, and just as formal, while brown and khaki are staples of casual office wear. Black trousers are less common outside of matched suits, as they tend to draw the eye away from whatever color is worn above. Heavier fabrics will create a smoother drape and help the trousers hang neatly, but are also less comfortable in the summer.

Trousers Are A Tricky Beast In Fashion
Trousers are a tricky beast in fashion -- often misunderstood, plagued
by an overabundance of terms and names, and surprisingly difficult to
find in a comfortable fit. But (much like the bassist in a good band)
they bring everything together even when they aren't the star of the
show. Understanding the role of your trousers and the options you have
in choosing them are the keys to comfortable, sharp-looking clothes for
your lower half.
