context_page_description: Cargo pants or cargo trousers, also sometimes called combat trousers after their original military purpose, are loosely cut pants originally designed for tough, outdoor activities, and whose design is distinguished by one or more cargo pockets. Cargo pants have become popular in urban areas as well, since they are convenient for carrying items during day trips on foot.
  Cargo shorts are a shorts-length version.
