These look very much like a pair of hiking pants I have.

Yeah it reminds me of the climbing pants I use for every day wear[0]. I buy them specifically because they have pockets with zippered side access for when sitting.

This looks clean but I'd worry about stuff sliding out of the pocket, as I've had happen with medium-length waist pockets frequently over the years.

I was just going to say, just the the pocket on my Prana's that I wear every day. My other favorite pocket is my ski jacket breast pocket, just to the left of the main zipper. So easy to access.
