I am looking for cargo pants with the same nice rear pocket "flaps" that pinks and indy trousers have. If the colour is similar that would also be a great plus, been looking at 5.11, miltech and similar workwear brands but no luck there so far
Cheers/Johan

Re: Cargo pants with the same rear pocket flaps
Of any cargo/tactical pants I've seen the back pocket has two buttons. Given that, the pocket flaps are more square than the pointed/scalloped Indy flaps with one button.

Oooooh! I know the answer to this one -- LL Bean Tropic-weight Cargo Pants, $49.99 (and Bean often has sales) here: https://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/92519?p ... p=f&pos=11" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;SkauneJohan wrote:I am looking for cargo pants with the same nice rear pocket "flaps" that pinks and indy trousers have.

In fact, when I first bought them last year, the first thing I thought when I saw the pocket flaps was, "Indy might wear these if he was working today."
I have 3 pairs (shorts, too, although those don't have the back-pocket flaps). They're light, loose and comfortable, and the Khaki color is reasonably Indy-ish, and looks good with an Indy shirt or any other safari-type shirt, long or short-sleeved.

Re: Cargo pants with the same rear pocket flaps
Well I wear cargo pants 90% of the time, along with a Indy shirt, jacket and fedora. And I try to get colors close, but not to close. Someone see the coralation and as much as I care less what others think, I do try to be low key.
But sometime there’s a brown charge along with the like stone shirt, just looks good.
If only the work place wouldn’t frown so much when I wear my whip. I wish.
But wear the combo in good health and if you do find a pair, give us the link. I’ve never seen em, and I search for any kind of multi pocket cargo I can, the more pockets the better.

Re: Cargo pants with the same rear pocket flaps
Seems like no cargo pants has a nice triangular rear pocket flap with button...

Yes, if you want that particular shape, it's true that the LL Bean cargo pocket flaps are not an exact match for those on Indy pants.SkauneJohan wrote:Seems like no cargo pants has a nice triangular rear pocket flap with button...
