Women's cargo shorts suggestions please

[Donna Sch]

Kathmandu in 2015 made the perfect pair of hiking shorts and then they changed the design and made them all skinny. I have Polynesian tree trunk thighs so I don't want a fitted look. I want comfortable with pockets. I love Paramo and they have a great men's Maui shorts but no female equivalent. In my town we only have an Anaconda store.
Any suggestion for summer cargo style hiking shorts that will fit a post-menopausal woman?

Hi Donna, check out Zorali, a seriously good Aussie brand - I think they're based in VIC. They've got a great online store. Hope this helps!

Donna, in case you are more interested in pockets than shorts there is this skirt from Lightheart Gear. You can fit a copy of Brierley's guidebook in each pocket. It is made in the US so you'd need to add shipping and customs tax to get the total cost so maybe it's not for you.

I'm not just directing you to the site; I'm a satisfied customer. For three summers now I've hiked in the mountains with this.

Both these links go to the same place:

Duluth dry on the fly cargo shorts. They also have those in boot cut pants so not skinny pants. Perfect for the camino because they really do dry fast, whether it's from rain or washing and hang to dry.
