Your favorite technical pants (or are they called athleisure?)

hey guys.
As someone who sweats a lot, I find it hard to wear anything but shorts during summer in NYC but I don't like how they make someone look less presentable. I've been looking for pants that look good but they're not jeans/chinos because I do get hot easily (even when I'm a slim person).. I've heard good things about Western Rise, or Lululemon ABC, but since I've neve bought any of them before, I'm wondering what is the general experience/wisdom about these things? What about prAna? or Vuori Meta pants? The Bonobos ones or the Everlane?
Also: are these prices really justified? I generally tend to use relaxed or athletic pants so prefer those over slim pants or whatnot..

My main considerations:
  • Looks
  • Breathability
  • Comfort to keep wearing them for long days.
  • Maybe ability to dress up/down with them.
Thanks!
