@K67 I'm an archaeologist in real life and have started digging again this week. So I usually get the kind of "industrial" work trousers aimed at construction and farm workers, but all the ones I had are either too small thanks to sitting on the sofa for a year or were worn out. There's a lot of digging and kneeling in the dirt in archaeology and I tend to wreck my clothes quickly.
I have a pair of Dickies trousers that do the trick, very comfortable and they have a range of sizes. i usually size up for extra comfort. I think they’re men’s but the cargos have loads of pockets for you to carry stuff in.
I do like trousers with lots of pockets @LivMarie98, at least I have a chance of finding things nearby. I tend to wear dungarees in the garden, very loose and baggy linen ones (with pockets). Comfortable and practical, although going to the loo can be an ordeal (yes, I am a lady).

I gave up wearing dungarees back in the 80s! I used to put items in the front pocket on the bib. After I’d accidentally tipped the contents down the loo a few times, I decided they were not for me! I tend to wear regular joggers or my old chinos, and wear an apron with pockets, Lidl sometimes have gardening aprons and Ikea are good and cheap, plus a pouch on a belt for secateurs and the like. screwfix and wickes do reasonable men’s work trousers, although I’ve usually had to take the legs up.
