My overly baggy Troy Lee Moto shorts are rubbing my toptube away and dont have shop lifting pockets so after some new ones, requirements are;

Baggy enough to go over gnarr knee pads, but slim enough to not flap away like Jordans beef curtains.
Any colour as long as its black.
Pretty long legged-no 70's style nylon bollock dangling running shorts.
Pockets, for playing pocket billiards, and carrying keys,
No chamois/liner stuff-must be true clagnut removing shorts.

I think thats it? suggest away.

I really really like my Dakine 8 Track shorts, which I think fit your requirements.

I just got some 2010 dakine shorts and there lovely. Can't remember which model but the bright blue ones. They do come in subtler colours…

Endura singletrack 3/4's are the shorts i tend to wear more than any others i own. Comfy and fit over my knee pads no worries and velcro in a bit when i don't pad up. Plenty (too many for me) of pockets and a great fit, also the option to click in a set of enduras clickfast shorts if you want a chamois in the future.
