I'm thinking of getting my pants altered. The bottom seems to flare out more than I would like them to. If I get them altered, what do I ask for? Thanks.

You ask for them to be tapered.

My jeans did that and I had them altered. I just told my tailor to slim them slightly from the calf down. It's ok to describe what you want without proper terms until you learn. Sometimes though it might me cheaper just to find pants and jeans that tapper how you like them in the beginning.

Are you sure you looked at the "slim" Banana Republic trousers? They will specifically label them "slim" and not just "classic" and "regular." Zara is a good choice, their line is Euro cut and will usually be slimmer.
If you have the money, John Varvatos, Brooks Brothers, Band of Outsiders, Brioni, and Zegna generally makes some good slim fitting ones. Zegna is actually my favorite because they provide fabric to many of the other designers, so they will have a wider assortment of fabrics and patterns. You can also get them to custom make you some pants or a whole suit if you would like.

How much do all those brands run? Especially Zegna? My office is business casual so I will need a at least 5 pairs in black/charcoal/lite gray/brown/navy to mix with differnet dress shirts I have.

Generaiya finds Varvatos to be overpriced at retail. That is why you will often find Varvatos discounted on websites or at the end of season with their 40% friends and family deals.
Brook Brothers is a little pricier than J.Crew, but their trousers should be <$100, Generaiya believes.
Zara is a great fast fashion brand. Good slim european cuts, great pricing. However, you get what you pay for. If you would like your pants to last you for over the years, Generaiya does not recommend buying pants from Zara.
You can often find John Varvatos and Band of Outsiders discounted on websites such as Gilt, RueLaLa, ShopItToMe, etc. You can also find them discounted at sample sales. Generaiya does not advise paying retail for Varvatos or Band of Outsiders, even if money isn't an issue for you.

Ermenegildo Zegna usually start around $300 and goes up, for pants, depending on the fabric material. Sometimes they will have a sale and that is usually a good time to buy a bunch. If you are looking for slim pants, their clothing should fit you well off the rack.

What type of jeans are those? Do they fit similar to 511's if you've had any experiences with those? I don't like the wide 514's anymroe and am looking slim down a little bit more in my jeans, but if I can find the right opening size I can just get most of my pants alterted to fit like 511's. If that makes any sense, haha.

I am 5'8' and about 130... Needless to say I have really skinny legs.. I have been wearing some Rock & Republic Henlee's for about a year or so. I need some new dark wash jeans. What type of "fit" is best for my body type?

CEO - those are JCREW vintage slim, I don't really have Levi's but the guy that helped me said they fit pretty similar to 511's...honestly these are probably the best fitting pants I've had, it could also be because over the year I've slimmed down a couple of waist sizes so at a size 32 pants just look so much better than at 34-36....they only have 3 washes in these...they run about 100$ a pop.
