When I buy pants or shorts, not only do they have to have pockets to be considered, but my full hand must comfortably fit into them or it’s a deal breaker. Screw those pockets that only fit fingers, what’s the point even? Whatever you can fit in is more likely to fall out, plus stiff things make bending your legs at the hips awkward/impossible.
Bonus points if they zip closed and thus can be trusted to hold things on a roller coaster, though I got a fanny pack because great pockets are pretty rare, especially if you also want great pants/shorts attached to them.
