There is a similar colour trouser (or pant) in the USA in the shape of Nantucket Reds. You can browse the collection here - I'd be tempted, but most shipments are a hefty $50.
And to answer the question in the title - why not? Pink trousers, pink socks, pink shirts, pink ties - bring them on! If you like a colour, wear it.
[For an alternative and highly entertaining view of red (and possibly pink) trousers, see here. Do you still feel the same way about them?]

Surely only a middle aged man can wear pink chinos.
I'd have to think about that one. Thanks for the comment! GF
You thread your belt through the loops clockwise? This seems dangerously unconventional – any particular reason?
I didn't know there were rules about that sort of thing! Thanks, GF.
Neither did I.... I do them that way too. Now I'm curious.
I always understood gents fastened their belts anti-clockwise, ladies clockwise.
No idea where this came from though...
I hadn't heard that one before - a bit like buttons being done up on different sides. GF
also available from Orvis
I purchased a pair of Ralph Lauren “ Nantucket Reds” at least twelve years ago. Over the years the fabric has become beautifully soft and the colour faded very slightly.
Last year I was leaving Lord’s, wearing blazer, 'Nantucket Reds', a light blue shirt and MCC bow tie. A young man aged about 22 came up to me and said "very sharp sir" and I don't think he was being sarcastic! So yes - middle aged and above, they're a good look.
