Thanks. I already had those on my wish list, but I'm still holding out for zippered pockets. My Pearl Izumi Canyon shorts have one small zippered pocket, just enough for a small ID/credit card-sized wallet, but the other pockets are open and not really deep enough to be secure.

My Nashbar Lancaster shorts have good deep pockets with a reverse slash opening, so they're secure while cycling. And the velcro-tabbed wallet pocket is okay. But the overall construction quality is a bit lacking, although acceptable for the price. The materials and design are good, but the stitching tends to come loose.

I've noticed locked stitching is where cheaper clothes cut corners. Costs more for that kind of attention to detail.
