I can get away with wearing mens tops and shoes, but my hips are too fabulous for mens pants to look good on me. So I gotta settle for women’s pants.
So I’m currently doing field work for Ecology so I need to get PRACTICAL WORK PANTS WITH LOTS OF POCKETS.
Meanwhile women’s clothing shops are like “UwU, work clothes for women? You mean these business pants with no pockets?” There are no other kinds of workwear for women IN THE WORKWEAR SECTION.
No motherfucker I mean cargo pants with all the pockets and belt loops. I’m going out in the bush. I need pockets for extra batteries and I need belt loops to hook a satellite GPS to. Fuck.
Look at this sexist bullshit. Here is the women’s workwear section:
Here is the men’s workwear section, same store:
Apparently all women work in offices and all men work physical labour jobs and fuck you if you deviate from your assigned role in life.
FUCK GENDER ROLES AAAAA IT’S 2024 AND THEY’RE STILL DOING THE FUCKING NO POCKETS THING
EDIT: Thank you comrades for all the suggestions on where to shop.
I would highly recommend searching for women’s “tactical” pants you’ll find what you’re looking for.
I can’t speak to this specific brand’s quality, but these are $25

Any experience with 511? They’re Usually one of the first brands recommended to by gun nerds but I imagine something that popular with a group of people with deep pockets and government contracts eventually lead to shit quality lol
I have specifically avoided them due to their conservative image, I do think the quality is actually good though.
you get what you pay for with 511
buy once, crye once
My 5.11 pants are comfy as all hell.
The tactical clothing brands do seem to be the only ones making functional clothes for women.
