Has good features w/pockets that are readily usable, tho some pockets could be a bit larger to more readily accommodate cell ph, eye glasses and the like. Velcro pockets act as reasonable security. There is one interesting feature and that is "belt" in the back of the shorts that is evidently for bottled water, I have found this "belt" utilized in combination w/the back pocket, excellent for carrying around a small umbrella in wet weather. Good product, I don't think you will be disappointed, but do wish the pockets w/just a tad larger.
