Where can I buy trousers for a 13 year old with pockets big enough for smart phone?

I'm talking about the 6 inch phones most kids have now.
I can't believe how small the pockets are in most trousers!
As for getting a wallet in them ..!
Any suggestions?

Try Asda. My DS14 wears the skinny black school trousers from there and it's tge first thing he checks when he tries anything on.
Our current dilemma is trying to get shorts with deep zipped pockets

Whenever I make a suggestion of seeing on here I’m met with ‘I can’t do that!’ However, it’s quite easy to replace pockets or make them bigger. And inexpensive.

That's true. And you can actually buy pockets in sewing shops or haberdashery departments, so all you have to do is cut off the bottom of the existing pocket and add the new one to it.

For deep-pocketed shorts, try walking shorts from an outdoor sports shop.

DS1 is 14 and has a bum bag Grin
He wears it cross body.
Nike/Adidas training trousers generally have zipped pockets.
