For multiday long riding, I need to find some comfy trousers.
Does anyone have any brands or types they can recommend? Good for walking as well, not too tight and no rubbing.
Or does anyone wear full chaps? Though I think those can be too hot?
 
Ariat jeans are my choice, haven't tested them in high heat but 6-7 hour riding days last summer were fine and comfortable. But that is in a western saddle.
ETA actually I wore them in Colorado too, that was pretty warm some days and up and down steep mountains, again no issue. That also means the ones I'm wearing today are 10 years old! They last :)

Wrangler jeans are made for riding. As their name suggests. They reduce the inner leg seam so it doesnt rub.

And just a reminder. You need to leave more leg length if you are going to ride in the jeans.
 

I have some of these
 
AÇAI say you can ride in their’s - never tried and Sean’s are in wrong place, but they’re super comfy as walking trous
