How hard can it be to find navy blue trousers?

First post, have been reading for months but finally have to post because I'm in need of help!

A few years ago I bought some lovely trousers for work from M&S, they did what I needed so well that I bought second pairs in black and navy, which have now all worn out. I have looked in all the usual places and can't find navy blue trousers anywhere. Must be...

Available in size 22/24 (this it the sticking point I feel)
Nice dark navy colour
Side zip
Preferably no pockets
Wide legged (not boot cut and definitely not tapered)
In 'proper material', not jersey - I need smart for work and although I do have some jersey type ones in black, they're not very flattering.

Help please?

Hi Fallulah, it can be really hard to replace something that's been a staple in your wardrobe.
I've had a quick look and not sure if any of these might be of use (lots of wide leg trousers seem to be linen, for some reason).

Marisota no idea what the quality is like

Thank you! I hadn't thought to look at HoF and the Boden ones look good if a little bit pricey. I've never shopped at Marisota, so like you I'm a bit wary of quality. Thanks again!

Debenhams collection do a bootcut trouser that is really a wide leg. Smart but have stretch. Up to size 24 with two lengths.
