so much insecurity
y'all putting hammers and shite in your cargo shorts or what?
tell me the functional utility of cargo shorts over an actual tool belt designed to carry tools and also in a more comfortable spot on your body?

Actually, yes. Along with nails, screws, screwdrivers, etc. I also put my phone in my cargo pocket.

Most home projects don't need a tool belt (depends on what you are doing) but no worries if you want to wear one.

having all of that bouncing around on your legs doesn't bother you? the weight distribution doesn't bother you?

Where does the hammer go, out of curiosity? Or are these actual work shorts with a hammer loop?

Head down, handle up in the cargo pocket.

I just don't believe you
Having things flop around your legs is annoying and you know it

Nope, not enough in there to do that. If the project is something big, I would pull out the tool belt.

It was a joke, don't get all worked up.
Here is an example. Maybe you're up on a roof making some repairs after a hurricane. Put screws or nails in cargo pockets and just carry the drill or hammer. I don't want an entire tool belt that adds extra weight while up on the roof.
A few items in cargo pockets is much more comfortable than a tool belt anyways.
Cargo pocket also makes a good spot for your phone when on the mower or tractor. I listen to music when I am on either for a while.

So you have a pound or two of metal swinging around at the bottom of a stretch of cotton fabric?
I'm certainly in no position to argue with you about whether that "bothers" you, but I'm happy to argue the point concerning whether that's, at all, a practical solution

Do you guys wear pants/shorts with the fake women's pockets or something? I've never had trouble fitting my phone in my front pocket

No.
And there's no point in explaining or trying to convince you. You can't understand until your balls drop.

It's practical when it's a quick little project.
If I was, let's say, building a deck then no, I wouldn't do that.
Argue the point all you want. How does what I do or don't do affect you in this case?

And then when I'm out with the wife and kids I'm just a pack mule, cargo shorts are handy.

It doesn't. But, you find yourself in a thread discussing the pros and cons of cargo shorts, so... why else do you think you're here?

Never heard of these, strange that you have.

Good for you. I'll sleep better at night knowing that.

You're not aware than women's clothing has fake (non-open) or very small pockets? Have you been living under a rock?

Ah, ok. Little bit sensitive. You have a good day, mate

Nope.
And then all of the added fabric and weight of the actual shorts is also not more comfortable.
Y'alls opinions are just wrong
Accept it.
