Walking Trousers recommendation

I'm looking for some recommendations for walking trousers with reinforced knees and seat please. Unfortunately there's no stock in my size 36 R of either the Forclaz or Craghoppers Proactive
I've come across the Montane Terra but wasn't looking to spend that amount if possible. They don't need to be waterproof but ideally suitable for spring / autumn wear
Any suggestions please

    The Revolution Race trousers are incredible value for money. Super comfortable and tough with it.

    I'm not an expert but the Craghoppers zip off ones are brilliant, I think the Bear Grylls versions might be reinforced, here's some microscope pics of the knee and the normal bit, make up your own mind.

    Either way they're not gonna wear out any time soon.

    (Dark is "reinforced", grey is normal).

    Millets have a sale on now, might be cheaper.

    Columbia Pouring Adventure II trousers - my partner has worn them camping in the wet and windy Highlands. He wears them over regular trousers. They also zip nearly 3/4 of the way up the leg so they're easy to take off / get on over boots. Fully seam sealed, waterproof and breathable.
