I have the DGX shorts. For $50, I haven't seen anything I would buy over the DGX ones.

I use them with my wetsuits and with my one drysuit that doesn't have pockets.

They don't slide down where I'm worried that they would come off, and they don't interfere with walking or fin kicks. I think my back plate or tanks must push the waist down when I'm gearing up and heading for the boat exit.

So, while they are great, I broke down and bought glue-on pockets to put on my one wetsuit that I would use for tech dives, and I got a newer drysuit that has pockets. The shorts are good, but they are also one more thing to don/doff and they do tend to sag just a bit.
 
Thanks guys, I appreciate all the feedback. I don't want to mess with gluing pockets on and periodically re-gluing; glad to hear no issues with shorts sliding.
 
Dive right thigh pockets.
Adjustable (up/down/sideways)

Use with any exposure protection, even with plain bathing suit.
