I am a big fan of at least one zipped pocket on a pair of shorts, after spending several summers losing phones, wallets, change etc when sitting down outside.*
Thing is, I am starting to wonder if such a thing still exist? Looked in Next/Burtons etc, but nothing.
*Possibly while drunk.

then you can wear whatever shorts you want
There's some excellent zip off leg trousers in marks. Mine are grey and cost about £35. 2 zips on bum,and 2 zips on legs . So impressed I bought 2 pairs.
As trousers they are reasonable as well.
A quick trawl thru TK Maxx should sort you out.
I'm liking the look of these. They're not for everyone though.

Ok, ok, I'll try and be helpful...
Hows about cycling shorts (but one's that take inners) without the inners? They nearly always have a zipped pocket or two, don't they? Or at least velcro jobbies.
While doing a quick browse, I came across this site: http://www.encove.co.uk/ which has shorts you might be seen dead in off the bike. 🙂
OMG zip off trousers? Do you wear socks with your sandals? ( sorry, but you know..LOLS)
Jamie , manbag? 8)
Emsz im 47 and shall wear what I like!
In this modern era its not socks and sandals,they are referred to a micro bacterial sandal liners.
Ps the mentioned trouser/shorts have a discrete elasticated waist band.
Now where did I put my beige cardi?

Quite - Craghoppers with zip off legs, open pockets with zip pockets behind and a large'ish cargo pocket. Try them on though cos fit seems a bit haphazard £25 IIRC

Soz zippykona, I'm sure you look DDG.
Anyway I can't talk, I've got asda wonder woman pants on today. Oh yeah, check me!!
Sort it out Jamie you're not even as old as me and you're asking for fashion advice on here. Even DD wears skinny jeans.
The alternative is shooting yourself.
I have a pair of 'cargo' shorts from Fat Face that have a range of pockets.
