Black trousers for all occasions

My wardrobe staple, comfy black trousers which still look decent, have finally developed holes and pilling that I can't get rid of. They were these from Baukjen, and while I did get lots of wear out of them, they are expensive for what they are. Any recommendations for black trousers either in cotton or heavy viscose which I could wear to smart/casual workplace with a blouse, or to the playground with a t-shirt?

I guess Im looking for something smarter than a joggers but not so formal as a tailored trouser.

These look nice but I can't do polyester - forgot to say that!

Try M&S.

Anything specific you have found good? I don't rate m&s for quality - most items I've gotten there have been really poorly made but if there's a unicorn item I'd be happy to look!

No, but they're recommended on here often. The prices are good.
The supermarkets are recommended often too, especially Tu.
