I have in my possession a pair of cargo pants from a rather well-known women's clothing brand. They're made from nice, thick canvas--the sort you can wear without fear while tromping through thorn bushes. They have lovely large cargo pockets on the mid thighs, big enough to hold a water bottle or a heavy flashlight or a small book.

. . . .and after adding those, the designers apparently suddenly remembered they were making clothes for women and removed all other pockets from the design. No hip pockets. No side pockets. Why would women need those?

Cargo pants. Missing the point.

But I bought them anyway, because they were $5 at the thrift store, and damnit, I needed thick pants.
