I just got some cargo shorts from King Size, and the denim is pretty thin. They are going to be returned I'm sorry to say. I have a feeling that the pockets will be lucky to last a month. I'd like to get some BDU pants and shorts like Countycomm offers, but the thing is, I'm a big guy. Does anyone know of a source for durable cargo shorts (or pants for that matter) that go up to a size 46 waist?

They have stuff up to at least 50"; some larger. Excellent customer service when needed, too.

Their nailhead hikers (I think that's the name) are rumoured to be manufactured by Royal Robbins (of 5.11 Tactical fame); don't know if that's so or not, though.

www.bdu.com goes up to 2XL, 47" waist. They have excellent prices, and it's from quality manufacturers like Propper.
