cargo pants
Multi-pocket casual legwear
Cargo pants are casual trousers with large pockets on the sides of the legs, typically secured with flaps or buttons.
Originally designed for military and outdoor use, the extra pockets held tools and supplies.
They became popular streetwear in the 1990s: He stuffed his phone, wallet, and keys into his cargo pants.
