We use Pfanner Gladiators and they are excellent!
Arbortec trousers are also popular - just don’t buy anything else made by them!

They are light years better than my old chaps, comfortable to wear, ventilated if required and with all the zipped pockets you need. Much better than the Screwfix offerings I first looked at
