I sewed MOLLE PALS webbing onto one leg and photoshopped the pic to mirror it onto the other leg. The idea is that the buyer can choose the types of pockets to have on their pants. Here is an extreme version of what it might look like ๐Ÿ˜‹

Seems like the issue is going to be structural integrity over time. You're either going to need to reinforce it by running straps of strong fabric from the belt line to the places where they are attached, or use really thick material for the pants and just reinforce the actual spots where it's sewn in. Likely using straps will make it look nicer so that stuff in pockets isn't making them get stretched weird, but will be more expensive and making it comfortable will mean adding another layer of material over the straps on the inside. Either way, seems like these would be kind of expensive to make.

Interesting points. I'll wear my prototype pants for a while (without an extreme number of pouches ๐Ÿ˜) and see if it becomes an issue. Appreciate the feedback and ideas to fix! ๐Ÿ‘
