Tactical is so 2013:

> [@Cargo pants (not shorts)](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/cargo-pants-not-shorts/674383/18):
>
> Since I discovered [Tru-Spec tactical pants](http://www.atlanco.com/product/24-7-series-mens-tactical-pants,15,86.htm)years ago, they’re all I wear.  
> The number and configuration of pockets is awesome. The dedicated knife and baton or magazine pockets are genius.
> 
> They make shorts as well, and I have several of those as well.
> 
> They go with everything, everywhere!
