Palisade (older model, 4 zipped pockets, pricey if new) or like said above Rampart models. Lightweight, comfortable and durable if taken care of. Geartrade has them sometimes and the Ramparts don't go for a lot on ebay.
Oct 18, 2013 at 11:32 am #2035303I'm also a big fan of the Gamma LT's although they can look a little techie. For a little more normal looking, try the Nau Motil Pant (also comes in very low key cargo). The pant fits very slim, cargo more like a pair of Levi 501s.

They are not too baggy and they have velcro ankle closures so you can wear the ankles cinched or not.
They have lots of pockets including zipper pockets.
They are comfortable and durable, wash easily and dry fast.
100 percent supplex nylon.
My only issue is the lack of availability in black and dark blue.Oct 20, 2013 at 7:37 pm #2035855Just go to any sporting goods store, REI, TJ Max, Ross, Goodwill, etc.
Pick something off the rack.
Try them on for fit.
Repeat until you find something that fits they way you want and fits your budget.
Not rocket science.
