These are just what I was looking for. Durable materials that'll work in most weather (water resistant, work as snow pants with another layer underneath) and a good design.

I wasn't sold on the protruding pocket edges on the thighs, but now that I have it it makes sense, as they're reinforcing the pocket with a tougher material so it doesn't get worn down by keys etc.

I'll admit I find myself missing the thigh pockets on the side like other cargos have, but in fairness it does have the knee pockets. These were novel to me, but they work pretty well. They're quite large, and make it easy to just drop something in with zero worries about it falling out thanks to the velcro'd flap.

Exactly what I wanted, and makes me think that I'll buy some other cargos from ToughDuck down the line.

P.S. - Buy Canadian! They aren't manufactured here (to be fair they'd be twice the price if they were), but I'm still happy to be supporting a Canadian company with good products.

Love the fabric and comfort. The knee inserts are practical.
