Please recommend "cargo" shorts

I seek some shorts that have at least two pockets (for wallet, etc.).
I plan to wear then when I go shopping and go places where I can't
(or don't want to) change from my black (one small pocket) bike
shorts.

Altura do a range of baggy shorts with pockets. I've got a pair of the
'Altitute' type, which have small hip pockets and cargo pocket on either
leg. The pockets aren't massive but they're certainly sufficient to hold
your keys, wallet and cellphone.

I expect google will turn up a US supplier

I've never tried 'em, but they're popular hereabouts.

I have tired "street shorts", but I seek something better.
The street shorts are especially a problem when they get hooked on the
saddle when I get on and off the bike.

Part of their description says:

* CGS - Crotch Gusset System eliminates
"saddle catch".

cheers,

These look nice, but (according to the Web site) there are no dealers
in MA, where I live.
Who sells these? Any idea what the price is?
(I have emailed the company to ask about dealers, too.)

I have had good luck with Kucharik Traditional Shorts.
I just found that they make cargo shorts.
(See http://www.kucharik.com/shorts.htm).
Has anyone tried these?

I have a pair of NEMA Stone Mountain cargo shorts that are my
favorites. They also make other models, the best known being the Crown
Jewel (fancier and more expensive than mine).

Primal Wear makes an MTB cargo short. It almost passes for street clothes,
except it's made of nylon. Two big cargo pockets, nice chamois, good short.
Performance was selling them for $50 I think.

Performance and Nashbar sell many different types of shorts like this. I like
the Cannondale ones I bought on clearance.

PS

DRS, I will be top posting from now on exclusively.

I've got some from Louis Garneau but the zippers on the pockets are
whimpy and one of them broke early on. I've also got some from FOX that
are much better built but the pockets are too small for a full-size
wallet - I can fit my flip-phone in there though. I recommend cargo
shorts by somebody else.

Do the world a favour and killfile me then. It's typical of retarded
adolescents like you that because you have a misconceived grudge against me
you're willing to inconvenience everybody else without a moment's thought or
consideration.
