These are my Urban Pipeline Men's 29/30 cargo pants. One of the only pairs of pants I have found in many searches that have expansive pockets, and still look good on me. (imo) To be fair, I'm a major tomboy, so my fashion sense is a bit dulled. Also I gotta get to work soon, so I had to rush taking pics.
My hairband marks on my arm how far it can go into my pockets
What my hand looks like inside
if I'm fisting...
I got half my friggin fore-arm in there!
I usually wear a belt and my shirt untucked.
I put my usual junk in my pockets, and tried to stand normally, so you can see how it looks.
My phone is a Google Nexus S6 for size reference, and can fit completely in my back pocket!!! <3
On the other side you can really see my wallet stick out! This is what some girls don't like, a lumpy ass! I usually put it in my lower side pocket, and you can't see it at all. The extra bonus of my cargo pockets also makes me very very happy.

My pocket Junk
So you might think Those pants fit fine, why don't all women just wear men's pants if they want pockets? Well, I have an advantage for wearing men's pants. I have the ass of a 12 year old boy, and I'm not very hip-py. A lot of women's hips and rear won't fit in pants designed for men. Men's generic pant design for jeans (not including skinny jeans in this) and cargo pants seem to be a straight shot from the hip to the bottom hem. So if I was "bootylicious" I might need a size 34/30 pair of pants, just so the extra inches on my rear can be contained. But that means the pant legs are larger too, which would make me look like I am wearing old school Hot Topic Tripp pants...
A couple other examples I've used to think of it:
A chesty but slim woman tries to buy a generic button down shirt. If it's big enough to fit her chest without a gap/pulling or popping open the buttons, the bottom half is big enough to hide a pregnancy, because the maker assumed the whole torso is size L or XL. So she wears a cami and doesn't button the shirt all the way/at all, or gets her shirts tailored.
My husband is very tall (6'7) but slender. He has an issue of shirts not being long enough, so people often suggest he shop at "Big & Tall". But nothing really fits him there, because even though he IS Tall, he isn't Big.
Sadly, even with my lack of booty, my favorite pants still ripped after just a few months. Usually when I went to sit down. These are the same size and brand as pictured above, all bought together. I tried repairing the first pair on the left pocket, but then the right side ripped, then it happened on another pair. My last pair is still holding though! Hope this helps showcase this first world problem, or at least was mildly interesting.

Try genuine gear tac pants. Lack style, but cheap and durable, shouldnt tear easy. Theyre stiff at first, but good after some washing.

companys need to make clothes for real human beings not mannequins

There's never a good reason to wear cargo pants
pikakid24
I never understood why most women's pants don't have pockets
Ghost0fDawn
neat

Yeah put your wallet in one of the cargo pockets, it's rubbing those holes in them.

“I have the ass of a 12 year old boy, and a restraining order from the local Boy Scout group...” - OP, probably.
ICollectReactionGifs
what about getting "work" pants that let you trade them in when they tear through?
NurseMcStuffins
I work in Scrubs, aka cargo pajamas!

Cool dude

Good pants. Going to check the web site now. Cheers.

Is that a squirt? I'll upvote a squirt

noone has gotten laid in cargo pants since nam
NurseMcStuffins
I have, and I didn't even exist during nam.
ButtNom
Eh. I think tomboy style is incredibly cute.
nick11570
dude, nice pants bro
EntertainMePls
Some big "tactical" brands have cargo pants cut for women. Just in case you weren't aware.
BllackViper
You have sick Chucks and a Zelda wallet, that's enough for me to be anyone's friend.

Love my leatherman juice
NurseMcStuffins
<3 ! I need to send it off to be repaired, the pliers are off set. :-( But I've had it for 10+ years, I'm a little hesitate to send it...
SWReefer
I've had mine for almost 12 and the only thing wrong is one of the tools is slightly bent and I have to for it into it's slot

I'm a dude who loves pockets. I wear Propper tactical pants. Pockets out the wazoo (right waist pocket even has 2 smaller pockets in it) 1/2
50m31AW
They fit well, feel nice, & are durable. They make 'em in women's too. Might not be the most stylish, but they're damn practical 2/2

I did a quick search, Macy's and ll bean both sell cargo shorts for women. They had cargo pockets why not just get those?
NurseMcStuffins
Women's cargo pants usually still have terrible pockets. Or are really ugly. That's the struggle, pleasant form and realistic function.
soulmercenary
You carry to much shit with you. Wallet knife and keys. Add a handgun if it’s your thing.
NurseMcStuffins
I have cargo pants to accommodate all the shit I wish to carry. My lips get chapped easily, and I get dry eyes.
NurseMcStuffins
I need a hair tie and clips for when I get down to business, to defeat the Huns.
Darksnider05
Yeah the pants are fine just can't keep your stuff in your back pocket. Destroys good pants like nothing else.
NurseMcStuffins
I have so many other pockets to choose from, but I want to use them all!! but yeah, I try not to use the back ones on my last un-torn pair.
SingingMeAndCthulioDownByRlyehFhtagn
Put the wallet in the right cargo pocket along with all your loose stuff and the phone goes in the left cargo pocket alone.
SingingMeAndCthulioDownByRlyehFhtagn
The keys get clipped to belt loop close to the rear pocket and then get tucked into the pocket so they can hang but not Rattle around.
NurseMcStuffins
I do usually do for the wallet. I wanted to show why some girls don't want to use their pockets in any pants, lumpy is less sexy.
SingingMeAndCthulioDownByRlyehFhtagn
Totally. To me, it's also uncomfortable
NurseMcStuffins
I instinctively want to put it in my back pocket, and often do in my jeans, but it definitely hurts my bony ass after sitting on it awhile!
Icreatedanaccountjusttoupvotethis
It looks like you're overloading your back right pocket. I do this too. Put a patch on the inside reinforcing that spot and Serge it in.
Icreatedanaccountjusttoupvotethis
This usually gets me a year and a half to two years per pair.
PlatypusPlatypus
Yeah I have to do the same thing. Left side pocket needs reinforcing against the keys for me, back right pocket for the wallet
NurseMcStuffins
I did put material on the inside, stitched it, and put fabric glue on it, but it didn't hold. :-( I do not remember how to Serge?
Icreatedanaccountjusttoupvotethis
You have to make sure it doesn't go along the knit. So the patch doesn't stretch the same direction as the tear.
NurseMcStuffins
Hmm, I don't think I took that into account. Thank you!
Icreatedanaccountjusttoupvotethis
Yup
LynxTryFours
why do girls think they have to look hot all the time? wear shit that works. Form follows function
NurseMcStuffins
We don't always, but don't want to be too sloppy? Like a guy doesn't need a suit 24/7, but old sweats and a wife beater may be too informal.
LynxTryFours
I get your point, but that's going from one extreme to another. lots of middle ground. if your clothes are useless, then wtf?
NurseMcStuffins
This is our endless struggle...
LynxTryFours
K, but those cargos look fine. you said girls don't like 'lumpy butt'. but why do you need to show off your booty 24 fucking 7?
NurseMcStuffins
Some girls. Deep culture of insecurity over image and self worth?
NurseMcStuffins
Personally, for these pants it stressed the back pocket seam, rips sooner, so I use the side pocket. In my jeans I put it in my back pocket.
