Uniqlo has "Perfect Fit" cargos that fit slim. Fit similar to those actually. They have olive (which is more grey/olive), khaki, and black.

ok?
Elbow patches are more about function than fashion.  They slow down the wear and tear that your jacket/sweater goes through since the elbow is the most heavily used area of those pieces.
 
$145 is expensive for just some elbow patches.  The leather looks nice but not on that sportcoat.

Ive never gotten so much feedback on an outfit, is it that bad???
I have the same pants ordered from kohl's. Only problem, when I got them in the mail they were a lot brighter red than I had expected.
I wanted a more burgundy color but got some New Boyz jerk looking colors.
They don't look as bad in your picture though, I think it depends on the time of day and lighting as well.


Are these the slim flat front dockers if so are they boot cut or regular

Get off your high-horse bro. Elbow patches may have once been more about function than fashion, but you're kidding yourself if you think that's what they are now. People cycled through clothing far less often back in the day because clothing was more costly and people shopped far less often. So you would actually wear your clothes until they literally fell apart. Today this is not the case. I have personally never worn through the elbow of a shirt or jacket or blazer or anything else that I owned, and I doubt anyone else here has either. 
No hate if people like the elbow patch look. I bought an elbow patch shirt from Land's End the other day. But don't get all high and mighty and act like you "need" the elbow patches.

What about my comment is high-horse-+$#?  Where did I ever say you NEED elbow patches? Are you able to read in context? I commented on green rhino 123's comment.

The guys comment was ridiculous and idiotic and I called him out on it.

You on the other hand, probably just came up with your $%+# to sound like you were mad and had to say something to me.

High-horse my +!%. Soundin' like a anti-hipster hipster...

I don't know why dude got so mad. You were trying to tell someone elbow patches are more about function than fashion. This is a load of BS.

Whatever though it's all love.

Hate to continue, but it seems that I really need to break this down for you step by step.
This is a post in which we offer fashion opinions to each other. The poster that you initially quoted offered the opinion that elbow patches were a fashion better suited for professors and old people- a commonly held perception. Instead of disagreeing with him based on fashion, you tried to completely disqualify his opinion by asserting that elbow patches aren't about fashion at all, but about function. This is why I said you jumped on a high-horse. Instead of responding to someone's legitimate, if stereotypical opinion, you tried to change things up all together and bring in the "function" argument. The function argument is BS. I called you out for your BS argument. 

End of story. Not sure why you think I have tunnel vision or can't read in context, whatever that means. Feel free to enlighten me though.

But I'm gonna go ahead and guess your response will be some combination of dismissive emoticons and something along the lines of "I don't have time for this".

And you say I was on my high horse "bro." You're laughable.
Opinions, by definition, differ person to person. Yet you dismiss my opinion (keyword: opinion) and merely assume that I'm dismissing his comments. How is the function argument BS? Oh is it because you deem it as such or is that your opinion. It's not BS if, in fact, people do use patches for function.
