Two years ago I bought three pairs of these from Cabelas.
Cabelas said they would never stop carrying them as they were one of their most popular cotton shorts.

Well, I went to order three more pair a few days ago, and they are no longer in stock, and I guess Columbia quit making them.

What a shame, as I have owned tons of cargo shorts over the years, and these are by far one of the nicest pair of shorts I have ever owned.

I Googled them, and I found them at www.altrac.com
Just ordered me up three pair one size smaller, as I have been dropping some weight, and my current three pair are hard to keep on :D

Here are the shorts in case anyone is interested in them.

They come in both 7" and 9" inseam.
I like the latter.

Velcro on the front cargo pockets, and also on the two rear pockets to keep your wallet safe.

Thanks for the link, Corey. The elastic on the sides sold me.

You are welcome.
I like the elastic too.

My first two should be in the mailbox when I get home.
The third pair ships next week.

I hope I do not have to buy even smaller ones later, I am on a roll though in trimming down :D

I just got a pair at my local TJ Maxx for $16.99. They only had one of my size or I would have bought more. If you have a Maxx local it's always worth a shot.

I got mine. Nice shorts, but Altrac has the slowest shipping that I've ever seen. Eight days to process my order before shipping?

They are slow.
It took me about one week from the time I placed my order.

I can not remember if they had faster shipping available either.

Well, I have three pair now in the smaller size for me, maybe I should order a few more since they are going to be harder to get.

I still think these are the best pair of cargo shorts I have ever worn.
